Billionaire Ahmed Hashi and how he started his business

When Ahmed Hashi started the company, it was a kerosene distributor for Chevron Kenya. At the time, the company supplied African regions such as Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) markets with the product using kerosene jerry cans.

In the mid-1990s, the company expanded its operations by acquiring depots in western Kenya and expanding its reach to the export market in East and Central Africa.

In 2008, the company was rebranded to Hashi Energy, broadening its scope to include the importation, distribution, and marketing of petroleum products, including bulk trading and service stations.

However, the company sold off its petrol stations to Lake Oil, a Tanzanian company in 2007

On March 10, 2023, Hashi Energy issued a notice to its creditors, calling for a meeting to consider and pass a resolution for the company to be wound up voluntarily, and KVSK Sastry was appointed as the liquidator to oversee the process.

Ecobank’s Ksh5 billion debt to a company has led to the bank’s decision to sell off the company’s assets to recover the outstanding amount.
