It is with great pleasure that I welcome investors to this first ever InvestSamoa conference in Auckland, new Zealand.

FoRewoRD FRoM The PRIMe MInISTeR oF SAMoA

Samoa being a Pacific island country offers the discerning investor unique opportunities and provides a well regulated commercial environment conducive for doing business. Samoa is also integrated into the global trading system and is a member of important international trade agreements.

Tourism forms the major part of the suite of projects included in this booklet. These range from projects still in the planning stage to those already in operation; projects below SAT$1million to those well above SAT$10million; from home stay and wellness sanctuary projects, to beach and art resorts and moving up to large hotels and even a national park. There is a range for the investor to choose from.

In Agriculture there are projects in cocoa/coconut rehabilitation and frangipani oil extraction.

In Manufacturing, projects range from gluten-free flour production from breadfruit, herbal teas and snacks, to chocolate and cocoa drinks production from Samoan cocoa.

And finally in Finance there is opportunity in the Unit Trust of Samoa for the individual or groups who want to invest through this dynamic facility.

It is our sincere hope that you would be able to invest in Samoa and look forward to working with you to transform opportunities into high value assets that mutually benefits your companies and our country.
