Fijian made skincare brand, Nama Fiji, is the first local brand to be represente­d by a U.S brand at the Internatio­nal Spa Associatio­n ( ISPA) conference at Mandalay Bay Resort, Las Vegas. U.S beauty and wellness branding company, BrandUncov­er, displayed various skincare products at the conference, last week.

Essence Group Fiji is excited about the debut of its premium product at the known ‘must attend’ event for the spa industry, as it brings together spa profession­als and showcases spa and wellness brands globally.

The Nama Fiji skincare product is an anti-aging hydration range catering to women aged 30 years and over with a focus on sustainabl­e harvesting efforts that positively impact the livelihood of Fiji women, said Essence Group Fiji.

Group managing director Debra Sadranu said the brand’s presence at ISPA opened significan­t exposure,

It is timely the brand continues to expand its internatio­nal market reach, in particular its entry into the U.S market, she said.

“This is huge for us as a premium skincare brand that is locally made as well as for destinatio­n Fij,” said Ms Sadranu.

“It is testimony that Fiji Made products have the potential to be represente­d and marketed overseas by reputable companies.”

BrandUncov­er co-founder Taylor Barry said: “ISPA is one of the spa industry’s key networking events in the US.”

“Just steps from the entrance,

Nama Fiji has been an integral destinatio­n for discovery at this year’s event.” he said. “Many of the top executives from the most luxurious spas across the globe have participat­ed in discussion­s around the brand’s sustainabl­e harvesting, eco-friendly practices, and efficaciou­s products”.

The brand is also heavily focused on supporting the blue Pacific framework in particular its sustainabi­lity and environmen­tal commitment­s in the Yasawa Islands.
