Vivo Energy launches first-ever express lube service in Ghana

Vivo Energy Ghana, the company that markets and  distributes Shell-branded fuels and lubricants, has launched the first ever ultra-modern Shell Rimula Express Lube Bay in Ghana. 

Vivo Energy operates and markets its products in countries across North, West, East and Southern Africa. The  Group has a network of over 2,400 service stations in 23 countries operating under the Shell and Engen brands  and exports lubricants to a number of other African countries. Its retail offering includes fuels, lubricants, card  services, shops, restaurants and other non-fuel services. It provides fuels, lubricants, liquefied petroleum gas  (LPG), and solar energy solutions to business customers across a range of sectors including marine, mining,  construction, power, transport, wholesalers and manufacturing.

The lube bay is the first of its kind in the industry and has been designed specifically to provide  heavy-duty trucks with express maintenance services such as engine oil changes, radiator  coolant services, greasing, diagnostics, battery testing, as well as free safety check services for  trucks. 

“As a company, innovation is implanted in our DNA and the customer  is at the heart of every decision we make. In line with this, we continue to invest in quality,  innovative, customer-focused products and services which will give value and excellent  experience to customers,” said Kwame Asante, lubricants sales and marketing manager.

“It is my honour to put on record that Vivo Energy Ghana is the first oil marketing company  (OMC) to introduce a lube bay of this kind with a drive-through specifically designed to service  heavy-duty long vehicles, trucks, buses, cross-country vehicles, and mini trucks using lubricants from the number one global lubricant supplier, that are also designed to offer enhanced  protection, improved wear resistance and overall reliable lubrication for longer lasting  engines,” he said.  

Customers that bring their vehicles to the lube bay will be  offered free safety checks. The new lube bay facility has a customer-friendly waiting room  conducive for customers to wait while their vehicles are being serviced.
