Turning five

O“ur brand is strong. Our reputation is strong ,” said Ricky Delgado Jr., chairman of the executive committee of ISLA Petroleum and Gas, as he summed up the last five years of ISLA LPG Inc. ( ILC), the company behind leading LPG brand Solane, when it recently celebrated its anniversary.

He added, “Solane has only been running for five years but we’ve already done so much. This company is respected for what it does well, and I think that if you

look at how far we have come, it’s really because of the same strategy we have kept from the start — reliable, safe and we take what we say seriously.”
