Client Profile
“A World of Energy”
Vivo Energy is the new company behind the Shell brand in Africa. A joint venture between Vitol, Helios Investment Partners and Shell, we offer the very best of Shell’s products and services – including high-quality differentiated fuels and lubricants, supply reliability, technical expertise, and unmatched customer service – to customers across Africa. In doing so, we employ – and seek to share – industry-leading health and safety standards, and are committed to delivering Shell’s products in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.
Vivo Energy’s Shell-branded service stations are the face of a retail operation that has made us the leading provider of differentiated Shell fuels and lubricants in many countries, while our Commercial team offers a comprehensive range of these products to customers in sectors such as mining, power, construction, marine and aviation.
Underpinning this is Vivo Energy’s unstinting HSSE focus – a business fundamental, and something which is non-negotiable. The company makes it its focus to demand, set and maintain the very highest safety standards, with the delivery of “Goal Zero” the number one priority.
Vivo Energy also works tirelessly to improve the environmental performance of its operations – lowering emissions and the impact on biodiversity, and using less energy, water and other resources – and is actively involved in various community projects across Africa, focusing on three main spheres of influence: road safety, education, and the environment.
Ethics and Compliance is another key concern, and it is the duty of every employee to act in accordance with the company’s core values and business principles, thereby meriting the trust and confidence of the public.
At Vivo Energy, we are particularly proud of the fact that we invest heavily in our people – empowering high-quality, accountable local management teams and ensuring staff are provided with the right incentives, business environment and resources they need to produce great results.
Going Forward, Vivo Energy is fully committed to growing and improving each of the businesses in Africa – injecting new capital, investing in new sites and facilities, and constantly improving the customer experience – and is well-positioned to take its place as “The most respected energy business in Africa”.
