Our team

Flexiway Solar Solutions is a small company and consists of:

James (Jim) Fraser:

Jim Fraser in Tanzania

Jim has decades of experience running his own businesses. After visiting Tanzania with his daughter Nicky, he realized that he wanted to help the people. The first plan was to start much needed reforestation, but soon the focus shifted to replacing Kerosene lamps by solar-powered LED lights.

Jim designed the original FlexiWay solar light which has been used all over the world. He lives in Brisbane, Australia and is the first contact for NGO’s and large clients.

Nicky Fraser

Nicky has also been self employed from the age of 21.  Operating her own businesses for many years did not hinder her passion for travel.

Having travelled to 25 countries she has a great knowledge of cultures and people. Nicky’s strength is problem solving hence she heads our logistics and office operations.
