The administrator of the Urban District of Ingombota, Paulo Furtado, said that the Kibabo Group bets a lot on national production, which represents a great achievement and a reason for great joy.

In addition to providing convenience and guaranteeing a more quality proximity trade, Ingombota’s mini-Kibabo guaranteed jobs to several young people.
Ervanda dos Santos said it was a great experience to work at Kibabo, because she never thought of dealing with the public one day.
“I am satisfied with this opening to employment, and the salary pays off, as it guarantees the sustenance and resolution of many personal and family situations”, she assumed.
Mário Segunda has his first job at Ingombota’s fourth “mini-Kibabo” store. Therefore, he is happy and available to always provide the best service. “I’m learning a lot from my colleagues, from in-house training to rehearsals to prepare for the opening. Everything is going well”, he said.
According to the young man, it was not easy to get the job. Once achieved, “I’ll do my best and grab it with both hands in order to achieve other goals”.
