Pacific Fishing Company Limited factory at Levuka, Ovalau island, Fiji

This company is the largest private employer on the island of Ovalau. Many local workers can be seen walking in and out this factory. The company was originally founded by a Japanese firm in 1964 specialising in freezing and shipping canned tuna. A cannery was subsequently opened in 1976 through joint venture with the government.
