Sharing his thoughts, Kamal Dole stated, “I am deeply honoured to have the title of Dynamic Entrepreneur of the Year bestowed upon me this year. As the saying goes, a good leader is only as good as their team, so I wish to thank each and every member of the Celcius family, for their dedication and support. This award is a testament to their hard work, as I would not have been able to achieve this award without them.”
