GOIL, Star Oil price war rages on, but chiefs keep friendship alive
The battle for customers between GOIL and Star Oil is intensifying, but the rivalry has not stopped the two companies' chief executives from maintaining a cordial relationship.
The ongoing battle between GOIL and Star Oil for customers is escalating, yet the rivalry has not tarnished the cordial relationship between their respective Chief Executives. GOIL's CEO, Edward Bawa, asserts that the intense competition between the two oil marketing companies remains strictly business-like. Both companies have been fiercely competing on fuel prices, with motorists increasingly considering the prices before choosing their fuel provider.
However, Bawa insists that the rivalry has not turned personal, emphasizing that both companies are competitors striving for the same market and utilizing their preferred strategies to attract customers.
In an interview on Joy News' PM Express Business Edition, Bawa wished his rival, Star Oil's CEO Philip Kwame Tieku, the best of luck, but confidently stated that GOIL would be a tough competitor to beat. Strangely, Bawa revealed that they have never met Tieku personally, but their relationship has been maintained through social media platforms.
He expressed his appreciation for Tieku's birthday wishes, highlighting the maturity and healthy personal relationship that can coexist amidst intense business competition. Despite being adversaries at the pumps, Bawa emphasizes that the contest has not destroyed the respect and friendship between the two leaders.
