Business Development Manager 

Prime Cookstoves ( <http://www.primestoves.com> www.primestoves.com) is a
company established by Differ and Dr. M. Nurhuda in 2013. Our main mission
is to make clean and efficient cookstoves attractive and affordable for the
poor. By creating affordable cooking solutions for the people at the "bottom

use of traditional cooking methods, reduce the need for fuelwood and, hence,
lower greenhouse gas emissions, and reduce end-users' economic burden of
increasing prices and reduced availability of fuels for cooking purposes.
Prime aims to do this by creating a thriving business where innovative
products that create effective, affordable and desirable solutions for the
BOP customers are sold commercially.
