A Message From The Founder – Pierre Orgle

At Pierre Orgle Holdings we have a purpose – “we change lives for people through creating opportunities to reach their potential“. We’re world leaders at what we do – and we do it every day.

A holding company with subsidiaries across 10 strategically positioned operational centers in 6 continents and 36 countries and growing. From the way we conduct business to the way we live our values and value our people, Pierre Orgle Holdings is exceptional. Our strategy remains consistent, organic growth by region and discipline, a focus on growth markets, development of home-grown management expertise and a structure that champions our own expertise. Since December 2000, our recipe for success has consistently over time remained the same.

Organic Growth By Region And Discipline

Even during challenging economic times we are resilient, our strategy remains establishing growth and disciplines throughout our international network, and extending this network into new territories.

A Focus On Growth Markets

Our objective is to expand into less developed markets where, as a result, competition is limited. Many of our new regions are emerging economies and are growing quicker than established markets. Naturally, our ability to grow fastest lies where markets have the potential to develop, and competition is weakest.

Home-Grown Management Expertise

In order to grow, we have the platform to support it. Our internal expertise forms part of the foundations – each new office, region or discipline is led by existing Pierre Orgle Holdings management, equipped with the skills and experience to maintain our market-leading position.

A Structure That Champions Profit Share And Promotion From Within

The aim of our team-based structure and profit share business model is to retain our management expertise within Pierre Orgle Holdings. Our strategy is geared for the long-term. With world-renowned machinery brands, highly trained and motivated consultants, established professional relationships and access to the best candidates through our established database and market-leading approach to social media and online channels, we are always on the move and the future has never looked better.

Our Core Values

Our core values are the cornerstone of who we are, what we stand for and what we do. Our values are reflected in everything we do, every day, all over the world. They’re an integral part of our business and help set us apart from our competitors. They form a platform for our methods, approach to business and motivation of our people. More than just words, we believe our values are the essence of our brand and influence the way we work day in and day out.

Our story

Pierre Orgle Holdings, a limited liability company, was established as a science research and clean energy technology holding company in the year 2000 under a private sector initiative spearheaded by the US Chamber of Commerce, Federation of West African Chambers of Commerce and Industry, the Africa Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the West Africa-America Chamber of Commerce and Industries, Association of European Chambers of Commerce and Industry and Confederation of Asia–Pacific Chambers of Commerce and Industry. In the early 2000’s, foreign and state-owned science research and clean energy technology companies in West Africa dominated the science research and clean energy technology industry in West Africa. Science research and clean energy technology  industries in West Africa owned and managed by the African private sector were a rarity. Its founder and president created Friction Antidote Transnational, Regenerative Off-Grid Energy Systems And Solutions and Pronto Logistics with the objective of filling this vacuum.

From the inception of Pierre Orgle Holdings with the group making up of three companies ie. Friction Antidote Transnational, Regenerative Off-Grid Energy Systems And Solutions and Pronto Logistics’ ethos embraced a commitment to enhance scientific research across sub-Sahara Africa.

The pieces of an early Pierre Orgle Holdings concept began to fall into place. Members at the meeting began to debate the idea of a private sector science, research and clean energy technology industry that would help facilitate trade in the sub-region. The next landmark date for Friction Antidote Transnational, Regenerative Off-Grid Energy Systems And Solutions and Pronto Logistics was the Friday, 1st December 2000, when an agreement was reached with the members for the Holding company to be based in Ghana.

While the early 2000’s were years of relative political stability across a significant number of sub-Saharan African countries, Pierre Orgle Holdings commissioned subsidiaries in three African states within three years of its establishment between 2001 and 2004. A second wave of expansion followed from 2007 to 2010, when the Group’s coverage increased from three to six continents.

It would have been difficult to predict in the early days that the group would be running over 1,150 branches within 22 years and be widely acclaimed as the leading pan-African science research and clean energy technology company. By 2015, its consolidated balance sheet crossed the US$2 billion mark for the first time, and today Pierre Orgle Holdings subsidiary offices serve over 9 million customers.

Pierre Orgle Holdings has not only become a world-class conglomerate, it is also a torchbearer for a new Africa. The group of companies has become part of the mainstream science research and clean energy technology company and logistics hub in 36 sub-Sahara African countries, and the Pierre Orgle Holdings brand has become a dominant expression of science research, clean energy technology and logistics benefits for millions of people.
