Corporate Social Responsibility
As a leading business in Papua New Guinea, we are committed to creating a brighter future for local communities. Through sustainable practices, education initiatives, cultural preservation, and health programs — we aim to support and empower Papua New Guineans for generations to come.
More Than Business — A Legacy of Care
For over 110 years, Seeto Kui (Holdings) Ltd has been woven into the fabric of Papua New Guinea's communities. We believe that the true measure of a company's success is not just in its financial performance, but in the lasting positive impact it creates for the people and environment around it.
Our CSR programme spans four core pillars — sustainability, education & training, community engagement, and cultural preservation — each reflecting our deep respect for Papua New Guinea's land, people, and heritage.
During challenging periods such as the COVID-19 pandemic, Seeto Kui stepped up its community support — providing assistance, resources, and relief to families and institutions across the country. This spirit of solidarity defines who we are.
How We Give Back to Papua New Guinea
Each pillar represents a core area where Seeto Kui (Holdings) Ltd actively invests its resources, time, and commitment for the benefit of Papua New Guinea.
Adopting eco-friendly practices, reducing waste, and minimising our carbon footprint to ensure a healthier environment for Papua New Guinea's future. We understand that the health of our land and sea is inseparable from the health of our communities.
Offering scholarships, in-house training, and skill development programmes to empower the next generation of Papua New Guinean leaders. We believe that investment in education is the most powerful investment we can make for PNG's future.
Supporting local charities, healthcare initiatives, and disaster relief efforts through volunteerism and donations. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Seeto Kui was at the forefront of community support — distributing essential supplies and assisting vulnerable families across Papua New Guinea.
Honoring local traditions, heritage sites, and artisanal crafts to maintain cultural identity, pride, and continuity for all Papua New Guineans. We recognise that PNG's rich cultural diversity is one of its greatest strengths.
Making a Real Difference Across PNG
Specific Programmes & Initiatives
Beyond our four pillars, Seeto Kui runs targeted initiatives addressing PNG's most pressing needs.
Through SK Pharmacy, we work to make quality pharmaceutical products and healthcare advice accessible to communities — including outreach efforts in areas with limited access to formal healthcare services.
Via Mynet ISP, Seeto Kui is actively contributing to connecting Papua New Guinea to the world — delivering affordable fiber, wireless, and 4G internet services to expand educational and economic opportunities.
Our FoodMart, Hypermart, and ExpressMart supermarket chains help ensure access to fresh produce, groceries, and everyday essentials for thousands of families in Lae, Port Moresby, and communities across PNG.
We actively seek to procure locally produced goods and services, helping to stimulate PNG's economy and support small and medium enterprises. Over 220 import relationships also bring world-class products to PNG consumers.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Seeto Kui actively supported communities through supply chain resilience, ensuring essential goods remained available, and contributing to health and safety initiatives across Papua New Guinea.
We are committed to responsible environmental stewardship across all operations — from responsible waste disposal in our hardware and plumbing divisions to energy-efficient practices in our retail and supermarket chains.
