“We can’t tell the name yet, we have agreed it this way. Nocart has other projects in Kenya under discussions and Kenya is in heavy focus,” commented Cleantech’s Managing Director.
It is anticipated that the project will commence immediately, with Nocart expected to deliver in six months following the down payment.
“As I have said before, the opportunity for Nocart in Africa is huge and our pipeline has grown to euro 1.3 billion worth of projects. This new contract broadens our customer base and I cannot express how proud I am of the whole team at Nocart Oy for their tireless efforts,” reported CEO of Nocart, Vesa Korhonen.
