BY STYLE REPORTER CONCRETE products manufacturer Pavcon Industries on Friday scooped the Top Brand in the Construction Sector award at the Zimbabwe CEOs Network awards ceremony held in the capital.
Several companies and business leaders were rewarded for their “contribution to the country’s business space”.
Pavcon’s stock continues rise and has become a force to reckon with on the local scene, with sights now firmly set on spreading the firm’s wings across Zimbabwe and beyond the country’s borders.
The company, which was established in 2005, has grown from strength to strength, thanks to the shrewd leadership of its founder and MD Shelton Paza.
“The award is a reflection of what Pavcon Industries is contributing to the development of the country,” said Paza.
“We weathered the Covid- 19 pandemic, through adaptation to the normal, which saw the introduction of new technologies.
“Speaking of technologies, we, as the trend-setter, we have imported state-of-the-art 3D technologies so as to enable our broad customer base to tailor make their products. In short, our customers get a say in the final product being manufactured.”
As part of its corporate social responsibility programme, Pavcon Industries recently bankrolled a sports tourney in Mhondoro-Ngezi where primary schools battled for honours in various sporting disciplines.
