Sunday, May 16, 1982 Fiji has a lot of potential and opportunity for people to develop in commerce and business, says Mere Tuisalalo Samisoni, the manager and owner of the Hot Bread Kitchen.
The mini-bakery in Suva’s Harbour Centre has been a hot success from its opening day.
Mere lived in Brisbane, Australia, with her doctor husband Jimione for more than 18 years and while there “caught” the mini-bakery idea from a local operation called Bedgoods Hot Bread Kitchen.
“We became impressed with the concept, the quality of the bread and the service,” she told The Fiji Times of May 16 1982.
