A MOTOR mechanic company in Ho, Gerco Auto Ventures, has been accredited by the Toyota Company (Ghana) Limited as a one stop shop for the servicing of all kinds of Toyota vehicles in the Volta Region.
The facility has components such as spare parts shop, diagnostic machines, electrical department, gas and electricity welding, reception and administration, among other sophisticated modern departments.
Inaugurating the centre, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Toyota Ghana, Mr Masato Kumata, said the staff of Gerco had obtained enough professional skills through mechanical training in addition to the philosophy of customer satisfaction.
Mr Kumata commended the management of Gerco for investing in its staff through various training programmes that generated team work, and urged it to sustain the discipline and build on it to satisfy the principles of “Toyota Way”.
The Ho Municipal Chief Executive, Mr Mawutor Goh, commended Toyota for taking the lead among motor industry players to expand its services and products to Ho.
He said the hard work by Gerco had earned them partnership with Toyota, adding that it was in consonance with the mission to increase and accelerate private sector activities in the Ho Municipality by attracting corporate entities to transform the economic environment.
Mr Goh suggested that the new partnership should foster a linkage with the Ho Polytechnic to facilitate the sharing of useful information and practical experience.
He added that the new scheme would also open up employment avenues and transfer skills to garages and fitting shops.
In an address, the Managing Director of Gerco, Mr Gershon Doe Gakpetor, said his centre started at a modest level as a vehicle repairing shop under a coconut tree with a small wooden structure.
He said its vision was to be the best corporate service centre in the country. Mr Gakpetor pledged best practices and services as he was determined to make the sky the beginning and not the limit.
Present at the ceremony were a representative of Ho Asogli Traditional Council led by the chief of Ho-Heve, Togbe Kwasi Afele.
