The NASCO awards, organised by the Sri Lanka Institute of Marketing (SLIM) is a premier event dedicated to recognising and honouring the efforts and performances of sales personnel.

JAT Holdings also bagged two awards at the NASCO 2016 awards. JAT’s star sales performer Darshana Danesha took home the Silver award under the Sales Supervisor category while Suneth Liyanage took home a Bronze in the Front-Liner category.
The awards were presented within 15 diverse business sectors where territorial managers, sales executives/sales supervisors and front-liners were recognised under each business sector. The period under review for entries was the 31 December 2015, 31 March 2016.
JAT goes on record as having transformed the wood coatings industry in Sri Lanka and South Asia in 2000 by introducing water-based solutions, thus creating an entirely new segment in the category which it continues to dominate with 75% market share. With 38% revenue growth and 57% net profit growth in 2015/16, the recent re-branding affirms JATs vision of the unprecedented opportunities which lie ahead.
