Ghana’s leading indigenous Oil Marketing Company, GOIL PLC, has opened a new zonal office for the Upper and Middle Belt Zone in Sunyani in the Bono Region.
The new facility will oversee the activities of GOIL in Bono, East Bono, Ahafo, Western North and some parts of the Ashanti Region.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Group CEO & MD of GOIL PLC, Kwame Osei Prempeh, said the decision to build a new office in Sunyani was to ensure that the services of GOIL are made accessible to the people within the confines of the region and other neighbouring communities.
According to him, the office has been strategically positioned to publicise the company’s operations in the area and also offer the company an opportunity to identify and solve the problems of its customers.
The Bono Regional Minister, Madam Awo Banahene, in her address, commended the management of GOIL for extending their operations to the region, noting that her outfit was ready to offer all the needed assistance to the company for them to succeed in their operations.
The Queen of Sunyani, Nana Akosua Asor Brayie, who represented the Paramount Chief of the Sunyani Traditional Council, Nana Bosoma Asor Nkrawiri, appealed to the management of GOIL and other regulatory bodies to ensure that dealers adhere to all safety measures to avert disasters.
Mr. Samuel Owusu Bennett, Managing Director of Eusbeth Hotel, who spoke on behalf of petroleum dealers in the region, said the new zonal office in Sunyani would benefit dealers who had to travel outside the region to the Kumasi Zonal office to transact business.
He commended the management of GOIL for addressing their concerns and assured them that they would also work hard to push the GOIL brand in the Bono Region.
Present at the event were the Regional Police Commander, Mr Oklu Gyamera; the Head of Human Resource and Administration, Mr Olu Davies; Head of Operations, Mr Denis Amui; Head of Fuels Marketing, Mr Augustine Boateng, and the Acting Head of Corporate Affairs & Public Relations Manager, Mr Robert Kyere, all of GOIL.
