NP (SL) Ltd continues to be the proud recipient of warm commendations in and out of the country for its efficiency in timely service delivery and proactive stance in partnering with well-meaning Sierra Leoneans to construct and commission state of the art Filling Stations in different parts of the country.
These moves on the part of the petroleum importing and marketing company has ensured that residents in far to reach areas, which hitherto face serious constraints in accessing fuel and other petroleum products, can now do so with ease. Before, residents have to travel miles and miles away just to procure fuel, an ordeal and big constraint that bike riders, boat owners, business individuals operating cinemas and even for domestic use were wrestling with.
It is in that direction that we can actually see that NP-SL Ltd is not only interested in making profits but takes it that it has the responsibility of mitigating the petroleum sufferings that residents in remote parts of the country have been going through.
What this pro-active stance on the part of the company it also means it is helping to make available job opportunities from which the qualified fortunate beneficiaries do earn a living. The benefits will cascade to other family members and friends.
It must be underscored that NP-SL Ltd continues to demonstrate that it is determined to ensure that the vast majority of individuals and institutions gain easy access to petroleum products.
As a progressive business entity, the company, which has been in the business of importing and marketing various petroleum products, for over forty years, from time to time do partner with entrepreneurs to open new Filling Stations in different parts of the country.
The company continues to make meaningful inroads within the petroleum landscape of this country and based on effective and efficient service delivery, the result oriented company has drawn wide-spread commendations from near and far for holding the fort for far too long, weathering various storms.
One thing that the company lays emphasis on is to give preference, in terms of employment, to exclusively Sierra Leoneans instead of considering bringing foreigners on board, except in instances where local expertise could not be sourced. This stance on the part of the company is in sync with the country’s Local Content Policy.
The company’s introduction of a Smart Card to purchase fuel has been widely applauded as a very good initiative. A particular customer, with money in his or her NP Smart Card, could easily put in for the quantity of petrol or diesel that he or she wants and the supply is facilitated, after which the amount of money expended is deducted from the card.
Some users of NP Gas that this medium spoke with, intimated how it is a very good device which has a high speed performance and very environmentally useful and friendly. Manufactured in different cylinder shapes, it is portable and affordable. NP Gas could be secured at all the company’s major Filling Stations, where the gas to refill it could be accessed.
Indisputably, there is no way that we can talk of a very successful company, amidst challenges encumbered along the way, without mentioning NP-SL because the company is hugely contributing to the socio-economic development of nations.
Management is very desirous of ensuring that the company has a presence in every nook and cranny of the country.
I appreciate the good works you are have been doing and I pray that you will continue to do same work. But my questions is why the high prices of fuel in our country?
Prices of commodities are so high due to the increased price of fuel . What are you doing to bring down the high prices of fuel as one of the regulatory agency of fuel ?
Congratulations for the good work you are doing, I wish you will continue your good work on both the marketing size. Please I will like you the director of national petroleum, to talk to is dealership for them to sell in good way.
