Societe Generale holds Power of GH¢250 mini draw

Societe Generale Ghana has held its second mini-draw to reward its loyal customers on the “Power of GH¢250” deposit and win promotion that was launched in May this year.

The Power of GH¢250 deposit promo raffle draw aims to reward the loyalty of existing customers and reward new customers for choosing Societe Generale Ghana as their financial partner.

Also, it is to encourage customers to save by gradually building up their account balance as well as instil the habit of savings in customers. Thirty lucky customers were rewarded with prizes which included Samsung Galaxy S5, washing machines, refrigerator, microwaves, blenders, electric kettles among others.

Mr. Kwaku Tweneboa-Kodua, Head of Retail Banking at Societe Generale Ghana, congratulated all customers who participated in the draw and encouraged them to continue saving with the bank. He reiterated that the promotion is designed to reward loyal customers and instil saving habits in customers.

He explained that under the promotion, customers are to deposit a minimum amount of GH¢250 into the bank’s savings account multiple times from May 27th to August 22nd 2014.

He added that the more a customer saves without withdrawing from the savings account, the higher their chances of winning wonderful prizes -- there is still a whopping GH¢75,000 to be won in the final draw.

Mr. Ekow Inkoom, Head of Business Promotion of National Lotteries Authority (NLA), congratulated the bank for this initiative.

“Assurances were made that all the data has been checked and meet the standard set by the NLA -- this confirms that all customers indeed have an equal chance of winning,” he said.
