The management of Produce Buying Company Limited (PBC) has honoured its Deputy Managing Director, George Kwadwo Boateng on his installation as a chief of Amoaman in the Ashanti region.

The management of the country’s largest licensed cocoa purchasing firm, believes the elevation of Mr. Boateng, who is in charge of Operations, is an honour to the company.

Mr. Boateng, installed under the stool name Nana Agyeman Boateng I, has been instrumental in the growth of the PBC which doubled its returns last year and continuous to post impressive gains in recent months.

To show the company’s appreciation and support, the new chief was presented with a variety of traditional items including traditional umbrellas, sandals, kente cloths and a cash gift from the management and staff.

The items were meant to help him to settle and perform his duties successfully as a chief.

“We are excited to have one of our own to be elevated to such a high position,” said Kojo Atta-Krah, Managing Director of the company.

He commended him for his dedication, loyalty and hard work which has helped to improve the fortunes of PBC, saying he believed such traits earned him the elevation.

In addition, he assured him of the company’s continuous support and cooperation to enable him to deliver for the benefit of the people of Amoaman, and wished him well.

Acheampong Chesco Kennedy, speaking for the Local Union, congratulated the Deputy Managing Director for the achievement and prayed for his success in his new responsibility.

He reminded him of the challenges in the chieftaincy field, but expressed optimism that with his vast experience in business and agriculture sectors, as well as the management of human resources, he would not be found wanting in handling chieftaincy affairs.
