It is envisaged that our Division will be able to provide our mandated roles in ensuring the continuous provision of high quality business services and products that not only display excellence and innovation, but creativity as well. The Division hopes to achieve this level of excellence while communicating effectively with relevant stakeholders and partners to deal with existing and emerging challenges affecting Solomon Islands businesses and cooperatives.

Our Core Functions Include

• Training and Development Program (T&DP)
• Research and Development (R&D) to urban centres, provincial and constituencies
• Promotion and Establishment of Associations
• Cooperative Societies Promotion and Development in Solomon Islands

The Division also strongly advocates support for the private sector as an engine of economic growth and thereby, is committed to undertaking a systematic review of relevant policies and legislation that support the growth of the private sector in the country.

Finally, the Division is also mindful of the need to work collaboratively with relevant stakeholders, including NGOS and the Civil Society, to create an environment that is conducive for businesses and cooperatives operating in the Solomon Islands. Similarly, the Division is also mindful of the fact that such an environment will require the provision and maintaining of quality human resource capacity to deliver services to our people.
