Vanuatu soap

maker on stream

Vanuatu’s first-ever detergent, shampoo and suntan oil manu facturer went into production in August.

Vanity Cosmetics Ltd., lo cated in Port-Vila, has been established to utilise local coco nut oil in the manufacture of a wide range of soap-related pro ducts. Its first objective is to supply local market needs with a high quality pure coconut oil laundry soap. The company believes that Vanuatu is now in a position to export locally produced detergent products throughout the Pacific.

The company has already received expressions of interest in its products from the United States, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand.

It is anticipated that, over the months ahead, the company will introduce additional technology to further extend its range of products.
