BPC Loses P10 Million Annually To Vandalism

When giving an overview of Instant Quotation, Schwarzfischer expressed concern over vandalism of their properties, which he said is a nationwide problem. He said normally the lawbreakers target electrical transformers to steal copper cables.

“We had an incident lately in Francistown where criminals took an expensive small transformer. The problem is escalating and more people seem to be joining the stealing bandwagon.”  Schwarzfischer indicated that vandalism does not only affect BPC financially but also inconveniences customers. He said replacing cables is expensive and takes a lot of time for them to be availed because they are usually procured from abroad.
