Description:
Vion is a franchise of the Handymans Paradise group of companies. We are a retailer supplying building material and home improvement products in Zambia . Handymans Paradise has been operating for over 20 years in Zambia and Vion has now been a franchise for a period of 2 1/2 years. The shop bought as a franchise has been operating in Livingstone for 16 years . With the election of the New Dawn UPND government 2 months ago ,a lot of new opportunities have opened for the expansion of the current shop as well as the opening of another branch and the prospect of the purchase of another one of the Handymans stores as a franchise.
This expansion will make Vion one of the biggest building suppliers in the Southern province of Zambia, with a population of 1.2 million people.
