JOBS: Logistics Officer at Deevabits Green Energy

The VSEs form a robust distribution channel of improving access to solar lamps to the remote rural areas; while the pay-as-you-go model enables the poorest households to own a solar lamp by paying for it in small installments hence removing the barrier for upfront payment. The VSEs earn income for their family as they provide affordable and clean lighting sources for their neighbors and friends.
