Why Vanuatu needs conveyor belts
Vanuatu is a small Pacific economy based on tourism, copra and beef.
Belts, idlers, buckets and drag chains wear out in abrasive service, and a stopped conveyor stops the plant, so critical spares are kept on site.

In Vanuatu, grain traders & reserves and flour, rice & feed mills buy conveyor belts from us mainly for plant maintenance and shutdowns and grain and oil mills.
