GWM Haval Jolion for winner of GMB 2025
The ultimate winner of this year’s Ghana’s Most Beautiful (GMB) pageant will receive a brand-new GWM Haval Jolion, courtesy of Zonda Tec Ghana Limited, the official automobile sponsor for the 2025 edition.
The prestigious cultural pageant, which showcases Ghana’s diverse traditions and values across the regions, has once again partnered with Zonda Tec to reward the queen with not just a crown, but also luxury on wheels.
Speaking at the announcement ceremony, Ms Vivian Zhao, Deputy Managing Director of Zonda Tec Ghana, said sponsoring the pageant reflects the company’s appreciation of Ghanaian culture and its people.
She described the Haval Jolion as “a perfect match for the GMB Queen,” adding that Jolion in Chinese translates to ‘First Love.’
Highlighting its features, she noted that the Haval Jolion comes with an all-leather interior and advanced technology, including voice-command functions that allow the driver to perform tasks such as switching on the air conditioner by simply speaking.
“Over the years, Zonda Tec Ghana has created employment for many young people. We also run the ‘Road Safe Program’ annually in collaboration with the DVLA and MTTD to train drivers on road safety and reduce accidents,” she explained.
Ms Zhao further commended GMB for promoting Ghana’s cultural heritage and giving the world a glimpse of the country’s beauty through the creative performances of its contestants
