Roy Wheeler, Director
Roy Wheeler arrived in Seychelles in 1965 and after a few years working elsewhere became General Manager of Mackenze (Seychelles) Ltd, importers and retailers of products including oxygen and acetylene from Kenya. He became particularly interested in the gas business and later, during the visit of the MD of a Reunion-based gas company, the idea to manufacture locally was developed. Liquid Air (Seychelles) Ltd was formed and Roy was appointed Managing Director in March 1980. Under his leadership, the company grew considerably expanding into the fire extinguisher business in 1991 with the formation of Presafe Services. In 2005, the companies became 100% Seychelles-owned whilst maintaining close relations with other gas companies in the region.
