In Sierra Leone’s dynamic petroleum sector, NP (SL) Ltd continues to stand tall as a beacon of excellence and innovation. Widely recognized as the first choice for customer satisfaction, NP (SL) has built its sterling reputation on a strong foundation of transparency, reliability and forward-thinking initiatives that put people and progress first. At the heart of its operations lies a deeply rooted commitment to treating every customer with dignity and fairness, a principle that has made NP (SL) the trusted name in energy across the country and beyond.
At NP’s many Filling Stations nationwide, customers enjoy a consistent and dependable service experience. The company’s fuel dispensing machines are well-calibrated and regularly maintained, ensuring that clients get exactly what they pay for. This dedication to honest and efficient service delivery has positioned NP (SL) as the gold standard in petroleum retailing and a model for others to follow.
Beyond fuel, NP (SL) has embraced innovation through the promotion of NP Gas, a clean and efficient cooking solution that is fast becoming a household name. With its smart cylinder design and safety features, NP Gas offers an affordable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional cooking methods, helping families to cook faster and cleaner. Its growing popularity is a testament to NP’s commitment to improving the quality of life for ordinary Sierra Leoneans.
In keeping with global trends and local demands, the company has also launched the NP Energy Pass Card, a revolutionary digital platform that simplifies fuel transactions. With this smart card, customers can conveniently purchase fuel without cash, manage expenses and reduce delays at Filling Stations. This innovative solution reflects NP’s drive to modernize the petroleum retail experience and embrace digital transformation in service delivery.
NP (SL) is also a firm believer in giving back to society. The company is one of the few in Sierra Leone that has actively supported the promotion of squash, a sport gaining popularity across the nation. Through strategic investments in building squash courts in universities, military facilities and other institutions, NP (SL) is helping to nurture a new generation of athletes and create recreational spaces that encourage fitness and discipline.
Equally notable is NP’s effort to raise awareness on workplace safety. The company routinely conducts safety drills, training sessions and public awareness campaigns on the importance of occupational health and safety. These initiatives aim to protect workers, reduce workplace accidents and promote a culture of safety and responsibility.
NP’s success story is not limited to Sierra Leone. The company has extended its footprint to neighbouring countries such as Guinea, Liberia, Ivory Coast and The Gambia, where it continues to replicate its customer-focused business model. This regional expansion has not only boosted NP’s profile but has also contributed significantly to reducing energy poverty by making petroleum products more accessible in hard-to-reach communities.
The company’s impressive performance has earned it numerous awards over the years, cementing its place as a leader in the oil marketing industry. Most recently, NP (SL) attained ISO Certification, a global mark of quality and compliance, further validating the company’s commitment to excellence in service delivery, environmental responsibility and operational standards.
With its visionary leadership, strong customer base and unwavering commitment to growth and social impact, NP (SL) Ltd continues to blaze the trail in petroleum marketing. It remains a proudly indigenous company that stands as a symbol of national pride, corporate responsibility and innovative excellence.
