Company History

Our Heritage

The path to R. C. Manubhai Group of Companies began in the 1920’s with two incredible and visionary entrepreneurs – brothers Dahyabhai V Patel and Raojibhai V Patel. Their pioneering work and sustained growth were the foundations of the company we know today. The brothers, having arrived from Dharmaj (Gujarat State), India, established a humble grocery business in the rural community of Korovuto (10kms from Ba Town). The business was known as D. V. Patel & Sons. Following the success of the first shop, a second shop was set up in Nabatolu.
In mid-1940’s, Raojibhai left the business to seek other opportunities and started his frontline sales career working as a sales assistant for A. N. Patel & Sons (Ba, Fiji) – one of the pioneers of the Hardware business in Fiji. In 1950 he was later joined by his nephews Manubhai, Jayantibhai, and Ramanbhai.
In 1960, Raojibhai and Manubhai setup their own local Grocery and Hardware business named: R.C.Manubhai & Company in Ganga Singh Street, Ba Town. Raojibhai’s son, Chandrakant R Patel, joined the business in 1962 and became the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer in 1968 after the passing away of brother Manubhai Patel.
In 1969, following the success of the grocery and hardware business, the shop was eventually moved to newer larger premises in Ba Market Sub-Division where the company still maintains its corporate head office. The Korovuto store was eventually closed in 1975 following which Jayantibhai joined the family business in Ba Town.
By mid-1980’s, R.C.Manubhai & Company become the Most Trusted Name in hardware business and emerged as market leader in Hardware, Building Materials and Steel. With the growth witnessed by Fiji’s economy, R.C.Manubhai & Company vertically integrated hardware business to cater for the increasing demand from the growing Construction, Sugar Milling, Mining, Engineering and Utilities sectors.
From disastrous fires in the earlier years of establishment to devastating hurricanes, cyclones and floods, and the negative effects of the various coups, the company’s vision and progress never stopped. Boasting from a single outlet, the company today has ten major retail outlets Fiji-wide plus three manufacturing units, construction related outlets and glass & aluminium unit and various investments in companies like Vision Group operators of Courts retail outlets and Hilton Hotels. Of course, this would not have been possible without the solid foundation laid down by the founders mentioned above.
Over the 1990’s and 2000’s, the organization continued to expand its operations through opening new retail branches in Suva, Valelevu, Nadi, Tavua, Rakiraki, Labasa, Lautoka, Nausori, Navua and Savusavu. In addition, the organization has invested heavily in establishing several local manufacturing facilities and is now the largest manufacturer of foam mattresses, wire mesh, roofing sheets, purlins and other prestige products making the nation proud with made in Fiji products. In addition, the Group is an importer and supplier of glass and aluminium products.
