January – February 2026 Edition
Building Stronger Businesses. Strengthening Financial Confidence.
🌟 A Strong Start to 2026 – V-Lab Trainings Launched
We kicked off the year with impactful V-Lab Business Trainings, bringing together entrepreneurs ready to strengthen their financial management, business clarity, and strategic thinking.
These sessions focused on:
- Practical financial understanding
- Business structure and clarity
- Real conversations about growth challenges
- Strengthening decision-making confidence
The energy in the room confirmed one thing: business owners are ready to move beyond survival mode and step into structured growth.
We are proud to continue equipping entrepreneurs with tools that build long-term stability — not just short-term income.

📍 We Have Moved!
Narara Consulting is now operating from our new location:
Ifira Complex, Saralana – Port Vila
This new space allows us to:
- Serve clients more comfortably

- Continue growing our services in a professional environment
We are grateful for the journey so far and excited about what this new chapter represents — growth, visibility, and accessibility.
🛠 NEW TOOL LAUNCHED: “Business Reality Check”
One of our major developments this year is the launch of our Business Reality Check.
This is not just another assessment — it is a structured business health review designed to help entrepreneurs clearly see:
- Where their business currently stands
- What systems are missing
- Financial gaps that need attention
- Operational risks
- Immediate priority actions
The Business Reality Check is designed to bring clarity, not judgment.
It helps business owners move from assumption to evidence-based decisions.
This tool is now available for businesses seeking structured review and guided improvement.
🌏 Regional Engagement – Business Link Pacific Webinar
