B5 Plus proudly accepted the esteemed CSR Award 2023 at a grand ceremony held at the Jubilee House, the distinguished Office of the President. This recognition signifies our unwavering commitment to fostering community development and sustainable impact in Ghana. The presence of His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo elevated the event, celebrating the accomplishments of young individuals under the Head of State Awards Scheme Board of Trustees.
This accolade reaffirms our dedication to enhancing communities and our belief in the potential of local enterprises. It not only highlights our company's exceptional performance but also reinforces our role in propelling Ghana's economic progress globally.
In commemorating this significant milestone, B5 Plus remains resolute in pushing boundaries, contributing to Ghana's economic vitality, and making a lasting impact on the global stage.
Founded in 2002 by Chairman Mr. Mukesh Thakwani (Mr. Mike) with a visionary outlook, B5 Plus Steel Industry set out on a mission to become a leading global steel entity. Our journey has been steered by an exceptional workforce, pioneering methodologies, and ethical practices.
Our expansive 'state-of-the-art' steel manufacturing facility in Larkpleku Village, Prampram, established under the 1D1F (One District One Factory) program, stands as one of Africa's largest. It encompasses various units, including the Rolling Mill, Steel Melting Shop (SMS), PEB Manufacturing, Batching Plant, Oxygen Plant, Tube Mill Factory, Block Factory, Aluminium and Trailer Manufacturing Units, Crane Girders, and Weighing Scales. The recent acquisition of United Steel Company's Assets has further bolstered our capabilities.
With an extensive network of wholesalers, dealers, and distributors across Ghana and West Africa, B5 Plus has emerged as a pivotal player in the region's steel industry, expanding its reach across multiple West African countries through our manufacturing facilities.
This sentiment resonates deeply within B5 Plus, reaffirming our unwavering dedication to excellence. Mr. Thakwani assures that the company remains steadfast in delivering excellence, consistently surpassing expectations, and setting new benchmarks in quality and affordability.
The ethos of B5 Plus has always been to generously give back to society by creating ample opportunities for everyone.
The B5 Plus Care Foundation, our charitable organization, supports underprivileged children in Ghana by providing basic needs, free education, and essential medical care. Additionally, it organizes annual blood donation camps and free health check-ups. B5 Plus actively engages in CSR activities through the foundation.
We are committed to continuing our CSR initiatives, recognizing their positive impact on society. These efforts are aimed at fostering sustainable development, enhancing community well-being, and contributing to a brighter future for all.
As part of our social responsibility, the group has undertaken various initiatives:
• Conducting free medical camps.
• Providing free education to students.
• Supporting diverse social causes and festivals.
• Contributing to the fight against COVID-19 by donating oxygen to around 100 Government and Private Hospitals. Offering complimentary oxygen refilling for the Government and Private Hospitals from March 2020 to April 2022.
• Donating personal protective items like masks, medical suits, surgical masks, face shields, etc., for healthcare workers and society.
• Distributing food supplies to over 2000 underprivileged families in remote areas of Ghana during COVID.
• Contributing to the COVID-19 Trust Fund.
• Organizing Blood Donation Camps.
• Supporting educational programs like MISE Maths Competition, Shark Quiz, Spelling B, and more.
We are committed to continuing these CSR initiatives, ensuring sustained support for the communities we serve while positively impacting society as a whole.
