NetOne has recruited 400 brand ambassadors in Harare to kick start the “Basa Sebasa Project”, which is set to employ about 20 000 young people who will be selling the company’s products countrywide.

The youths will target current and new subscribers. Last Friday, NetOne launched the project in Highfield and Budiriro.

In an interview on the sidelines of a tour of Market Square Bus Terminus in Harare last week, NetOne acting chief executive officer Mr Brian Mutandiro said they would train young Zimbabweans and equip them with resources to enable them sell the company’s products and educate the public.

Mr Mutandiro said they will continue to increase the number of brand ambassadors and expand to other provinces. “We started with 400 brand ambassadors and we want to increase that number to 20 000 eventually and the project will spread to all the provinces of Zimbabwe,” he said.
