Posted on June 19, 2025 at 09:01 AM in New Services & Partnerships
Solomon Airlines is pleased to support partnership with locally owned manufacturer Delite Industries Ltd, reinforcing the airline’s ongoing commitment to supporting Solomon Islands businesses and strengthening community wellbeing.
As the national carrier, Solomon Airlines continues to champion local enterprise by promoting high-quality, locally made products. Through this ongoing partnership, Delite’s popular biscuit is featured onboard Dash 8 domestic flights and served in the Belama Lounge at Honiara International Airport, offering travellers a genuine taste of the Solomon Islands, while proudly showcasing and supporting local industry.
“Supporting local companies like Delite is more than just business, it’s about strengthening our economy and directly benefiting the communities we serve,” said Edna Tapuika, Operations Manager at Solomon Airlines. “We are proud to partner with a brand that shares our vision of national development through local empowerment.”
To mark the ongoing efforts of the partnership and as a gesture of goodwill, Delite has generously donated six (6) wheelchairs to Solomon Airlines. These wheelchairs will be used to enhance mobility assistance for passengers with special needs and will be distributed across key Airport locations, including Munda Airport, and the domestic and international terminals at Honiara Airport.
“We believe in giving back to the community that has supported us for so many years,” said Veronica Alondres of Delite Industries Ltd. “By contributing these wheelchairs, we aim to improve the travel experience and comfort of passengers who require extra assistance, while also celebrating our partnership with Solomon Airlines.”
This partnership is a testament to the power of collaboration between local businesses to create positive social and economic impact. Solomon Airlines and Delite look forward to continuing their shared journey of promoting Solomon Islands-made products, uplifting communities, and building a stronger national economy.
