At Synergy Solar Zimbabwe, we know that energy independence isn’t just a goal—it’s essential for unlocking the full potential of any successful business, especially in sectors where consistent power is a non-negotiable requirement.


This is especially true in the food industry. In this exclusive case study, we spotlight Pronto Meats Butchery in Zengeza, Chitungwiza, and their strategic partnership with the expert installers at Sona Solar Zimbabwe. Their new 30kVA solar power system sets a new standard for solar-powered commerce in Zimbabwe.

Critical Power: The Challenge Facing Butcheries in Zimbabwe

For Pronto Meats, a consistent supply of electricity is essential to preserve their reputation for fresh, high-quality meats. In Zimbabwe, the risks of load shedding are especially severe, impacting every aspect of food safety, business operations, and customer trust.

Consequences of Unreliable Power:
  • Broken Cold Chains: Threatening freshness and product safety due to refrigeration interruptions.
  • Financial Losses: Spoilage and generator fuel expenses mount rapidly when power fails.
  • Operational Disruptions: Equipment downtime stops sales, processing, and customer service.
  • Lost Customer Trust: Buyers demand guaranteed freshness—without it, reputation suffers.

Pronto Meats realized that to earn their spot as one of the best butcheries in Chitungwiza, a reliable, independent energy solution was required.

The Solution: Sona Solar Zimbabwe’s Custom 30kVA Butchery System

Sona Solar Zimbabwe approached Pronto Meats with a tailored commercial solution, starting with a detailed energy audit to meet the real-world load demands: large cold rooms, meat processing, lighting, and customer service systems.

The resulting system contributes unmatched reliability, efficiency, and sustainability to the butchery:
  • High-Capacity 30kVA Hybrid Inverter: A robust command system for simultaneous heavy equipment, installed as a three-phase Deye setup (2 x 15kW inverters used in tandem).
  • Extensive Solar Array: Carefully sized, high-efficiency panels designed for all-day operations and clean energy production.
  • Large Lithium Battery Bank: Sixteen 48V 100Ah batteries, engineered for ample backup and night-time operations—totaling more than 76kWh of secure energy.

The Results: Measurable ROI and Lasting Value

The launch of Pronto Meats, now powered by Sona Solar Zimbabwe, has brought tangible benefits that go far beyond cost savings.
  • Electricity Bill Reduction of up to 70%: Direct improvement to profitability, less dependency on grid power and generators.
  • Solar Power for All Business Utilities: Boreholes, pumps, and extras can be run for free during sunny hours.
  • No More Load Shedding: Smooth, uninterrupted business operations maintained year-round.
  • Quality Guarantee: Every "fresh cut powered by the sun" empowers the business’s brand and market value.

Why Quality Components and Long-Term Warranties Matter

One of the biggest advantages of choosing a reputable installer like Sona Solar Zimbabwe is the confidence they have in their products, backed by robust warranties. Every component—panels, batteries, inverters—is covered to ensure your investment is protected for the long haul.
  • 3-Year Workmanship Warranty: Covers all installation work, giving you peace of mind regarding system setup and reliability.
  • 10-Year Warranty on Batteries and Inverter: Ensures your system’s critical power storage and conversion units will provide dependable service for a decade.
  • 30-Year Solar Panel Warranty: Reflects the long life and durability of the high-efficiency panels used in this project.

These warranties are industry-leading in Zimbabwe and are a key reason why so many businesses choose Sona Solar for commercial solar projects, knowing there is support and coverage well into the future.

The impact at Pronto Butchery was immediate and dramatic:

  • Meat Spoilage Eliminated: Reliable solar power means refrigeration is never interrupted, saving thousands of dollars in avoided stock losses.
  • Operational Cost Savings: Generator fuel and maintenance are no longer major expenses, thanks to the solar system’s full backup capacity.
  • Seamless Business Operations: All critical equipment—scales, POS, cold rooms, lighting—works without interruption, enhancing productivity and customer service.
  • Customer Confidence: Pronto Meats is now regarded as a consistent, reliable source of fresh meat in Chitungwiza, further strengthening their brand.
  • Increased Profit Margins: Lower running costs and secured sales volumes mean greater profitability month after month.
  • Energy Independence & Sustainability: With solar as their main energy source, the butchery reduces its carbon footprint and leads the way in sustainable food retail.

A delighted Pronto Meats CEO shared, “Since Sona Solar Zimbabwe installed our system, it’s like night and day. Our cold rooms are always perfectly chilled, we barely touch the generator, and our customers are happier than ever. Sona Solar delivered everything they promised—this is the single best decision we’ve made for our business.”

Solar Power as a Strategic Business Asset

The success of Pronto Meats’ 30kVA solar solution shows what’s possible when visionary business owners partner with expert installers. The combination of robust, custom-designed systems and industry-leading warranties doesn’t just solve today’s energy challenges—it empowers commercial operations to grow, save, and stand out as leaders in their field.
