Aqua Vitens - GWCL celebrate one year management partnership

Adu Koranteng , 06/06/2007

Aqua Vitens Rand Limited, a water management company in Ghana, yesterday celebrated one year of its partnership with the Ghana Water Company Limited.

The event, which was organised to assure Ghanaians of the pragmatic measures put in place to supply quality water on 24 hour basis, was also aimed at releasing reports on their performance, since they began operation, under the management contract on the Ghana Urban Water Project.

The managing director of AVRL, Anne De Groot, in a presentation, said the company is now able to supply water to about 6 to 8 million people in the urban areas of the country. It has provided computer-based cash register application in the Ashanti Region, and introduced data merging in the Accra West Region to make data capturing easier.

Most management companies that have taken over as operators of Ghana's state industries have performed woefully. AQVR Limited is no exception!

By the way, have you paid your bill recently?

Have a good weekend!
