In a strategic move to enhance customer experience, Puma Energy Namibia recently joined forces with the renowned Hungry Lion Quick Service restaurant chain.

“This collaboration reflects our commitment to fostering convenience for our customers. It signifies our dedication as corporate citizens to creating employment opportunities and revitalizing communities,” Sithole said, hinting at plans to expand this partnership across Namibia and beyond.

Adrian Basson, Chief Executive of Hungry Lion, echoed Sithole’s sentiments, emphasizing the significance of this collaboration with Puma Energy.

“This establishment epitomizes our fruitful alliance with Puma Energy, and we anticipate numerous such ventures across Africa. Witnessing Puma Energy and Hungry Lion side by side is a testament to this synergy,” said Basson optimistically.
