He said that the company products are specified to extremely high standards and are designed to last for years while the customer care department is trained to cater and respond to the emerging needs.
“We are providing affordable, reliable, and clean electricity and other utility services to millions of Kenyans who are living without, transforming lives and unlocking the potential of communities, cities, “he said.

Mr Ronald Injiri Akolo who was awarded the new motorcycle congratulated the company’s effort in transforming the lives of people on the grassroots level.
He said that the demand for green energy has been on the rise and the government should partner with more investors in improving the lives of Kenyans.
“I’m very happy today as I receive the award as the best sales agent nationally, Bbox products will not be available in every part of Vihiga County as I will traverse every homestead delivering to the customers, “he said.
Human resource manager Vincent Chege Macharia said the company has received massive acceptance from end-users, given that the solar market remains a large market for the company to deliver quality and affordable solar energy to the people.
