It was on the theme: "The Lord has done great things for us, Psalm 126:3".

The event was also attended by Minister Sanitation and Water Resources, Cecilia Abena Dapaah, Minister for Works and Housing, Samuel Atta-Kyea and Deputy Minister for Communications, George Andah.

The company, which was formed by Dr Joseph Siaw Agyepong, Executive Chairman of Jospong Group in 2006, with a few staff now has more than 85,000 workers under various forms of Public Private Partnerships.

Zoomlion operates in Togo, Angola, Zambia, Equatorial Guinea and Liberia, whilst negotiations are far advanced to do business in countries like Sierra Leone and Southern Sudan.

Zoomlion started in Bolgatanga in the Upper East Region and the uniqueness of the waste collectors dressed in blue and orange attracted the attention of Ghanaians and the Government, giving birth to the Waste and Sanitation Module of the then National Youth Employment Programme.

The company offered janitorial and environmental sanitation services during the African Cup of Nations in Ghana in 2008 and the African Cup of Nations in Luanda, Angola on November 11, 2010.
