The Prime Minister has met with business leaders at a New Zealand-Fiji summit in Nadi on the last day of his Pacific trip.
He's set out the pathway to his new target of $2 billion worth of trade with the island nation.
A delegation of about 50 New Zealand businesses was among those at Denarau Island on Friday for the business conference.
It provided a platform for Prime Minister Christopher Luxon to lay out how he expects the two nations to achieve that $2 billion trade target by 2030.
He highlighted the need to improve our own education system to make sure the next generation is ready for business.
"We are bang-smack in the middle of the Indo-Pacific region, we have abundant natural resources, incredible people, incredible talent - no reason our countries can't do incredibly well for ourselves in the coming decades," he said.
And Luxon couldn't leave Fiji without stopping to watch a game of rugby featuring the NZ Defence Force - though he wasn't allowed to lace up his boots and participate.
"I did offer my services but they were very politely declined, and I am very disappointed about that," Luxon said.
Cheering for a better result for the Kiwis than the recent Fiji Drua victory which ended the Crusaders' play-off hopes - something Prime Minister of Fiji Sitiveni Rabuka has jabbed Saders-fan Luxon about throughout the trip.
"Fiji and New Zealand have always been natural partners. Sharing a common history encompassing heritage, culture and sports - I don't want to say anything more about that," Rabuka said.
A bit of sports politics to wrap up Luxon's first Pacific tour.
