Discusses opportunities for U.S. franchisers and legal requirements in the market.
Last Published: 8/5/2019

There are no restrictions placed by the Fiji government on franchising arrangements.  U.S. firms operating in Fiji under franchise agreements include Independent Grocers Alliance (IGA), Gloria Jean’s Coffee, and McDonalds.  The small market size imposes some limitations in Fiji, but many companies use Fiji as an export base to other Pacific Island countries.  There are also U.S. branded/franchised hotels including Marriott, Doubletree, Hilton, Radisson Blu, Westin, Sheraton, Auberge and Holiday Inn.  U.S. branded car rental companies including Avis, Budget, Dollar, and Hertz operate in Fiji.
