Local entrepreneur Elizabeth Loboi is using her business, “Blend and Bloom Local Fruit Juice”, to promote better health outcomes for Solomon Islanders, especially for those managing diabetes and high blood sugar levels.
At the recent National Trade Fair, she proudly showcased her locally made fruit juices, which she says are not only refreshing but are also carefully crafted to support healthier lifestyles.
In an interview with Island Sun, Loboi shared her journey into entrepreneurship.
“I actually started with an art and craft business. But after facing many challenges during the hard blow of COVID-19, I shifted my focus to something new and that’s when Blend and Bloom was born,” said Loboi.
She said the target is customers with health concerns, particularly those living with diabetes.
“My goal is to concentrate on making local fruit juice that’s affordable and good for people with high sugar levels. Some of my regular customers have said the juice works well for them,” she explained.
Loboi said the well-being of her customers is her top priority.
“When you run a business, your customers come first. Whether it’s food or drink, it should be affordable and good for their health,” she said.
Loboi also expressed her gratitude to the event organizers, thanking the responsible authorities for the opportunity to take part in the trade fair.
“It’s a great opportunity and the right time for us to come and showcase our products—not just to the people of Solomon Islands, but also to international visitors who attended the show.
“A big thank you to the organizing committee for a job well done,” she said.
