Apia, Samoa \u2013 27 October 2025<\/strong> – Frankie Company Limited marked 30 years last weekend with the opening of another supermarket at Siusega serving a rapidly growing business and residential area.<\/p>\n

The celebrations were led by Reverend Falemai\u2018i Ropati and attended by Cabinet Ministers and invited guests from the business community.<\/p>\n

Delivering the keynote address, the Minister of Finance, Mulipola Anarosa Ale Molioo offered the Government\u2019s congratulations to Frankie Company Limited \u201cas it marked another milestone in its remarkable journey of growth, service, and commitment to the people of Samoa.\u201d<\/p>\n

From humble beginnings in 1995 as a small retail store in Fugalei, Frankie Company Limited has grown into one of Samoa\u2019s leading family-owned enterprises.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s three-decade story reflects resilience, innovation, and strong Samoan business leadership. From supermarkets and wholesale operations to hardware, poultry, hydroponics, and food production, Frankie has become a household name that continues to invest in Samoa\u2019s economic future.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour journey is not only a success story for one company \u2014 it is part of the broader story of Samoan enterprise,\u201d stated Mulipola.<\/p>\n

\"Frankie

Employment & Contribution to Economic Development<\/strong>
\nFrankies currently employs close to 900 employees, including 860 local staff and contributes significantly to employment, import substitution, and food security.<\/p>\n

\u201cEqually important are your wider economic contributions \u2014 through taxes, VAGST, customs duties, and levies \u2014 which directly support Government revenues and the essential services that benefit all Samoans,\u201d said Mulipola.<\/p>\n

The Minister also acknowledged the many Samoan-owned businesses across Upolu and Savai\u2018i whose collective efforts strengthen our nation\u2019s economy \u2014 from village-based ventures to large-scale industries.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach business plays a vital role in shaping Samoa\u2019s economic resilience and in supporting families and communities across the country,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Government continues to encourage all our business partners to invest in ways that uplift our people \u2014 by creating decent jobs, supporting local suppliers, and contributing to shared prosperity.<\/p>\n

\"Frankies

Promoting Partnerships<\/strong>
\n\u201cTogether, these efforts embody the spirit of our national manifesto: People, People, People \u2014 reminding us that every policy, every investment, and every partnership must ultimately serve our people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mulipola also stated that the country\u2019s success depends on the strength of partnership.<\/p>\n

\u201cA whole-of-government and whole-of-community approach that brings together the public sector, private sector, faith-based organisations, village leadership, academia, and civil society.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we work together, we build not only stronger businesses but stronger communities \u2014 grounded in service, opportunity, and shared responsibility,\u201d the Minister stated.<\/p>\n

\"Frankie<\/p>\n

Frankie\u2019s story, like so many others, is a testament to what can be achieved when enterprise meets purpose and when success becomes a blessing for many.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Government of Samoa values the contribution of Frankie Company Limited and of every Samoan business that continues to serve with commitment and integrity. Your motto \u2014 \u201cWe never rest to bring you the best\u201d \u2014 reflects a work ethic that resonates with the spirit of service we hope to see across all sectors.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs you look toward 2025 and beyond, may Frankie Company Limited remain a proud example of Samoan entrepreneurship \u2014 walking alongside other local enterprises as we build a resilient, people-centred economy together.<\/p>\n

\u201cMay God continue to bless your business, your leadership, and your service to Samoa,\u201d the Minister concluded.<\/p>\n
