Citizens key in fuel industry growth

One such citizen enterprise, S&S Petroleum, was launched last Thursday, with city mayor, Godisang Radisigo, presiding. “The petroleum industry is a key driver of our economy.

It drives key industries such as mining, transport, logistics and manufacturing. “As such, fuel security is an imperative for the country. Our geographical position as a landlocked country presents some challenges as we have to rely on imports and in-land storage facilities as well as retail sites to ensure that the wheels of our economy keep turning,” he said.
