Sasol revealed that it plans to increase the number of local firms in its Mozambican supply chain. Benjamin Cavel, local content manager for the company in Mozambique told attendees at the CIPS Pan African Conference taking place in Zambia that his company had to “lead by example.”
Sasol is currently working with local suppliers to bring them up to the level where they can compete with multinationals firms.
Cavel went on to say “Sasol Upstream Oil and Gas intends to grow the economy of Mozambique. One way is to integrate the local supplier market into supply chain activities.
“Sasol has been in Mozambique for 10 years. There’s a need for Sasol to lead by example.”
Cavel said they were willing to pay more to favor a local supplier over an international firm. “If the price difference is up to 10% then we should source from the Mozambique supplier,” he said.
