A private company on Tuesday offered smartphones and bicycles to 75 of its resellers who have distinguished themselves through their work."We decided this morning to reward our various resellers to show their importance in our business. These are young people who are prevented from engaging in acts of fraud and who come to earn an honest living," said the head of the ABI Distribution company, Abdoul Rasmané Ouédraogo.This company distributes Fan Milk products.According to him, young people roam the various streets of the Burkinabe capital with rickshaws, offering frozen and quality products to consumers.Mr. Ouédraogo spoke on Thursday at the Pissy market, during a symbolic handover of smartphones and bicycles to 75 resellers.According to him, his company's gesture will allow resellers to flourish and move "properly" in their environment."We distribute quality products, full of vitamins. We have mineral salts and calcium. Among our products, there are, among others, frozen products such as Danone, Fandango, Fanyogo Passion in 300 ml cans, creams in food, Fan Milk or Popi-Popi for children," noted the company's top manager.Beyond business, the act aims, according to Abdoul Rasmané Ouédraogo, to encourage these young people to occupy themselves "usefully" in their lives.He went on to say that the winners were chosen after a competition between dealers using rickshaws and those using bicycles to offer the products to the population.Issouf Guira, beneficiary of a bicycle, said he was pleased to receive a reward from the ABI Distribution company. "Since there is no sub-trade, we got into it, and we asked God that it would go well," he said.Note that the resellers are mostly young people who have dropped out of school.Source: Burkina Information Agency
