The innovation is designed and spearheaded by Vivo Energy Ghana, the company that distributes and markets, Shell branded fuels and lubricants in Ghana.
These new and exclusive motorbike fuel service points are located away from the regular vehicle fueling points at the forecourt providing more space, safety and comfort for riders.
Additionally the space offers a separate canopy that provides shade and shelter to our motorbike customers when they are filling up.
In as a speech read on his behalf, the Managing Director of Vivo Energy Ghana, Mr. Ebenezer Faulkner said Vivo Energy Ghana is a company committed to continually innovating to deliver new and exciting products and services that offer convenience to our valued customers, and that are specific to their needs.
“Vivo Energy Ghana constructed these motorbike fueling points to offer motorcyclists a space that is specifically dedicated to them.
We have considered the unique needs of our motorbike customers and designed a special fueling point, just for them.
“The company is also committed to providing its customers with the best of Shell’s quality products and services and we are excited about our growing presence in the Northern Region” said Mr. Ebenezer Faulkner.
He said last year, Vivo Energy Ghana built 24 Shell service stations across the country to meet the diverse needs of customers looking for a high-quality retail experience.
This year, the company has ambitious plans for more rapid expansion to bring its high-quality products to the widest audience and set new benchmarks for innovation, convenience, service and reliability wherever the company operates.
In this regard, two new Shell service stations were opened in Gurugu and Chakpag.
Mr. Faulkner also used the opportunity to educate motorcyclists on some road safety tips. He stated that, motorcyclists should invest in good gear by wearing durable, non-slip gloves; boots that cover their ankles; and a correctly fitting helmet for all riders.
Riders should also know their bike's limits and stick to the speed limit.
They should not tailgate other vehicles; they should use their signals; not weave through traffic or drive on the hard shoulder.
Motorcyclists must make sure other drivers can see them by not riding in blind spots and always using their headlights.
