From Segaula Samoa Incorporated to Leaolupesina Samoa

Import & Export

Originally established as Segaula Samoa Incorporated, our company has undergone a remarkable evolution, transitioning from a non-profit organization to a dynamic commercial enterprise. With a passionate commitment to empowering women and preserving the cultural heritage of Samoa, our founder Segaula embarked on a journey that has transformed lives and communities.

​

Empowering Women Through Weaving

Segaula's vision was fueled by a deep-seated belief in the transformative power of traditional weaving skills. Recognizing the immense potential for economic empowerment, she dedicated herself to nurturing and developing the talents of Samoan women weavers. Over the course of two years, Segaula worked tirelessly alongside local teams, particularly in Savaii and Aufaga, to establish weaving groups and foster a spirit of creativity and entrepreneurship.

 

A New Era of Commercial Success

Driven by a commitment to excellence and a desire to create sustainable livelihoods for weavers, Segaula's efforts have borne fruit. Recognizing her invaluable contributions, the community of Aufaga bestowed upon her the esteemed title of Matai with the name Leaolupesina, symbolizing her leadership and dedication.

 

Introducing Leaolupesina Samoa Import & Export

Inspired by this honor and guided by a vision of economic prosperity for Samoan artisans, Segaula embarked on a new chapter of success. Thus, Leaolupesina Samoa Import & Export was born—a testament to the journey from humble beginnings to global recognition.
