Kontiki Finance and Vailoa Motors have entered into a partnership, hoping to make car ownership simpler and more affordable for Samoans.

The two companies entered into the partnership after weeks of negotiations and finally put pen to paper last week.

Local used-car dealer Vailoa Motors has been proudly serving families and businesses for 6 years.

Built on honesty, quality vehicles, and friendly customer service, Vailoa Motors has become a dealership the community trusts when it’s time to buy a car.

According to a statement from Kontiki Finance, this collaboration makes car ownership simpler and more accessible than ever before. Customers can choose the vehicle that suits their needs and arrange flexible, easy-to-manage finance options, all in one convenient place. The goal is clear: make the process smooth, supportive, and stress-free.

“Through this partnership, Kontiki Finance Samoa and Vailoa Motors are pleased to deliver tailored and reliable motor vehicle financing solutions that enable customers to secure the vehicles they need with greater confidence and accessibility. Together, we aim to support the growth of families and the local community as Samoa continues to advance and prosper,” said Lemalu Rasalama Tiavo, who heads up Kontiki Finance Samoa

According to Muhammad Rizwan, Director, Vailoa Motors, they are a complete automotive service hub offering vehicle sales, vehicle servicing, sale of car parts, air conditioning services, mechanical services, replacement of car parts and windscreen replacement.

“After six years in the automotive market, we have learned that real value is not just about the initial purchase. It is about long-term commitment and helping our Vailoa Motors customers after they purchase their vehicle from us,” he said.

Lemalu shared the vision behind the partnership, "We are growing our partnerships with trusted dealers like Vailoa Motors to create more options for our local people. This is about improving accessibility for growing families, the growing working population, where reliable transport is so important. By working together with local car dealers like Nissan, Kia, SAI Motors, and Vailoa Motors, we can make vehicle ownership more achievable and support our communities in a meaningful way."

“Together, Vailoa Motors and Kontiki Finance are creating real opportunities for families and businesses across Samoa. Quality vehicles, trusted service, and flexible finance. All working hand in hand to keep Samoa moving forward,” said Muhammad.
