JOSEPH GYENI v. BBS LOGISTICS LIMITED

Joseph Gyeni, a spare‑parts supplier trading as Josgy Eni Enterprise, sued BBS Logistics Limited for payment after an April 2015 arrangement to supply parts for thirty‑one trucks and repair hydraulics on twenty‑nine. Gyeni testified that BBS’s Fleet and Logistics Manager, Andrew Darko, and General Manager, Alvin, agreed the cost at GH₵76,529.98; he supplied parts and engaged mechanics Seth Twum and Mahamudu Adamu to perform the repairs. He issued an invoice and a revised invoice submitted to Mr. Selasi, who declined to sign it. BBS denied liability, asserting an internal policy requiring written approvals, job cards and completion forms, yet produced no such policy or records and called only a finance manager hired after the events. The court found credible, corroborated evidence of prior dealings and performance, held a valid verbal contract existed and was performed, and entered judgment for the principal sum with interest, nominal damages for breach, and costs, underscoring the Defendant’s failure to discharge its evidentiary burden.
