“We Walk the Talk.”
We are proud to announce that Fubilan Catering Services (FCS) has been officially recognised at the 2025 Canconex Awards as the Champion Lanco Company in Local Workforce Training and Development in last night's CANCONEX Lanco Awards. Our 2nd in 3 years! This milestone is a proud validation of the hard work, vision, and commitment we’ve carried over the years, not just in delivering quality service, but in building people.
20+ Years of True Impact: We’ve Been Doing This
For over two decades, FCS has been quietly but consistently investing in the future of Papua New Guinea’s human capital. Our Apprentice Program, a structured 4-year training initiative, is registered under NATTB and uses the TAFE curriculum to ensure our apprentices graduate with industry-ready skills and recognised qualifications.
We don’t just hire; we build from within. Many of our current team leaders, tradesmen and women Chefs, and mentors started their journey as young apprentices within FCS. Today, they are making meaningful contributions across PNG and at our home base in Tabubil.
Backed by Purpose. Driven by People.
Our success would not have been possible without the strong partnership and support of Ok Tedi Mining Limited (OTML) a true believer in capacity building and local empowerment. Together, we have invested in training, mentoring, upskilling, and creating real pathways for our people.
Every apprentice that walks through our doors represents a future leader. We’re proud to say that many have gone on to lead teams, manage operations, and become role models in their communities.
This Award is For All of Us
This award is a win not just for FCS, but for every apprentice who took the first step, every mentor who believed, and every family and community that supported them along the way.
A Small Contribution with a National Impact
At FCS, we’ve always considered our role in workforce development as a small but significant contribution to nation-building. We believe in giving our people the tools to succeed, and it shows.
As we look ahead, we reaffirm our commitment to raise the bar even higher to keep investing, training, mentoring, and transforming lives.
To our biggest supporter OK TEDI Mining, the facilitator CANCONEX and the people of all walks of life thank you for believing in what we do.
We walk the talk.
