Our 2023 Journey at Apex Energies: Embracing Resilience and Anticipating Growth.

As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on the remarkable journey we’ve had at Apex Energies in Zimbabwe. I’m Ronelle Sinclair, the General Manager, and 2023 was a transformative year that defined a new beginning for us.

It all began with a team burdened by the weight of past struggles — a phase we affectionately term “the trek days.” In February, we faced the challenge of motivating an overworked and demotivated workforce, a legacy from the previous administration. It was our opportunity to redefine and rebuild Apex Energies.

We set out on a mission to stabilize the ship, investing weeks in regaining consumers’ trust by ensuring competitive prices and available stocks. The journey was far from easy; it demanded perseverance, and yes, we shed a few tears along the way. But through it all, we remained committed to steering our ship towards success.

Amidst the challenges, we found beacons of hope — team members who not only adapted swiftly but also became the driving force behind our success. Their resilience and dedication laid the foundation for what I proudly refer to as “the start of Apex.”

Looking ahead to 2024, the road ahead remains unpredictable. Yet, amidst the ever-changing landscape of Zimbabwe, there’s an undeniable sense of excitement and determination. Even during tough times, the friendly faces within and around our company lift our spirits, reminding us that Zimbabwe is not for the faint of heart.

I’m thrilled to offer a glimpse into the future for Apex Energies — a future filled with innovation and growth. We’re preparing to unveil newly branded sites, welcoming fresh talent aboard. Moreover, we’re redefining convenience in our shops and pioneering Zimbabwe’s first fuel-based rewards program. The anticipation is contagious as we gear up for an extraordinary journey in 2024.

Our story isn’t just about overcoming challenges; it’s about resilience, adaptability, and our relentless pursuit of success in an ever-evolving landscape. As we stand on the brink of a new year, my team and I are eager to embrace the unknown, fuelled by the unwavering spirit that defines not only our company but also the essence of Zimbabwe itself.

“Watch this space,” I say with a smile. The 2024 chapter of our company’s history is about to unfold — an epic journey awaits.
