3299576

One of the containers that’s heading for Fiji has 500 cases of StarKist pouch products that StarKist Samoa donated last week for the “Help 4 Fiji” relief drive.

The cannery is also paying the cost for shipping one of the three containers filled with donations from American Samoa for families who lost their homes, belongings and even loved ones in the strongest hurricane ever to hit Fiji and the Pacific, tropical Cyclone Winston.

StarKist Samoa General Manager Mr Kwon presented the pouch products to the President of the Fijian Community.

Mr. Kwon said Starkist Samoa extends sincere condolences to the people of Fiji for their loss as a result of the devastation caused by Cyclone Winston.

He commented, “The Pacific Island cultures are very similar – built on respect and love for each other.”

And it’s in this spirit that StarKist Samoa would like to assist Fiji through this donation of pouch products for our brothers and sisters in Fiji.

Additionally the StarKist Samoa employees offer prayers and support to all of those affected by this disaster.

Kwon said, “As island neighbors, our network is very important especially in times of need. We appreciate the opportunity to assist and hope for a speedy recovery effort.”
