In our recent blog posts, we've had the incredible opportunity to shine a spotlight on the creative landscape of some Samoan-owned businesses based in Australia and New Zealand, each a beacon of our vibrant culture and cherished values. Today, our journey takes us closer to home as we turn our attention to the successful businesses flourishing right in the heart of the motherland. Join us as we celebrate these 5 homegrown enterprises, each a testament to the resilience and creativity of our Samoan community.
This and That Samoa
At This N That, they see their endeavour as more than just a business—it's a tribute to love, creativity, and sustainability. Operating from their home-based workshop, they breathe new life into old treasures, crafting meaningful pieces inspired by their late mother, Tavai. Each creation serves as a poignant reminder of her enduring love and legacy, guiding them on a journey of honouring the past while embracing the future.
With each piece, they pour their hearts into infusing purpose and meaning. Driven by a strong commitment to sustainability, they actively repurpose and upcycle old items, striving for zero waste. Through their creations, they extend an invitation for others to join them in commemorating Tavai's memory and experiencing the beauty of crafting with love. You can browse their collections via their Facebook page here.

Hello everyone my names are ALEX JACKSON from the UK, I want to use this golden medium to appreciate Doctor Abdul a great spell caster for helping me retrieving back my relationship with my ex lover when he ended and turned back on me for quite a long time now (6 months ago). He performed a spell for me and within 48 hours after the spell had been cast I received a text from my ex saying that he is sorry for the pains and tears that he had caused me and that he will not do such a thing to me again in his life. I was surprised but later accepted him back again. Anyone that is in the same line of problem or different one that wants to contact a spell caster should happily contact Doctor Abdul now on this email address.doctorabdulspellcaster@gmail.com or message him through his Whatsapp +2348108728256
