Company details
CR5 provides all-in-one engineering and construction solutions around the world. The Fiji Group has extensive experience throughout the Asia pacific region. It is firmly established and has considerable expansion plans in order to support the growing demand for its expertise.
Where it started
The Chinese Ministry of Railways formed two bureaus: one for construction and one for design.
This became the start of the
journey for CR5.
The ministry’s two bureaus were merged to form the General Bureau of Capital Construction
of the Ministry of Railways.

The two subsidiaries were transferred from the ministry to “Central Large Enterprise Work Commission” of the Communist Party of China.
Where it started
CR5: 870+ local and expat employees in Fiji
