Monrovia – It was a remarkable and joyous moment for the workers of the Liberia Petroleum Refining Oil Company (LPRC) when Petro Trade Inc. presented the staff 600 bags of rice and oil for July 26th.
The staff of Petro Trade, which is an affiliate company of Super Petroleum (SP) and Liberian Petroleum (LP) went out on Tuesday, July 24, 2018, to identify with workers of the LPRC and to appreciate them based on the long-standing good working relationship between Petro Trade and LPRC.
The effort provided 20 large boxes of Maggi cubes, 600 bags of rice and 600 gallons of oil for the entire workforce.
Making the presentation on behalf of the company, the Chairman and Chief Business Development Officer of Petro-Trade Inc., Mr. Ibrahim Hamdan, told officials and workers of LPRC that as part of their corporate social responsibility they thought it wise to assist the LPRC family as their way of celebrating the July 26 Independence Day with them.
In his remarks, Mr. Hamdan told the LPRC family, “On behalf of our company Petro Trade, we want to use this medium to say we are happy to celebrate Liberia’s Independence Day with you by donating these items. We know how difficult it is now with the state of the economy. It is against this backdrop that we thought it wise to come and identify with you during this time of need and we will remain working with you. PetroTrade wants LPRC to know that we will be partners with you and we will make sure that all our petroleum products come through the LPRC storage terminal”.

It is one of the leading petroleum companies in Liberia. According to Mr. Hamdan, the vision of the company is to be a “Class A” petroleum company and the undisputed market leader in the Liberian petroleum market, noting that the company has a mission which is to provide quality service to its customers with a positive impact on the environment in which they operate. He further explained that the company was upgrading its Retail Network of up to 40 gas stations to international standard.
Also speaking at the program, the Chief Coordinating Officer of Petro Trade, Mr. Abraham Kaydea, thanked and appreciated LPRC for two decades of good working relationship with his company. Mr. Kaydea vowed that Petro Trade will remain with LPRC Terminal and do all business with them. He said Petro Trade is the leading importer of petroleum products at LPRC at the moment.
