NP (SL)’s role extends beyond energy supply; it significantly contributes to local employment by exclusively hiring Sierra Leoneans, thus supporting national economic growth. As a fully indigenous company, the petroleum marketing company exemplifies the positive impact of local ownership on national pride and economic self-sufficiency.
Additionally, NP’s portfolio includes NP Gas, recognized for its environmental benefits and efficiency.
