Friday 27 July 2012 was a memorable night for Triumph International Lanka as it walked away with four awards in the Fashion/Clothing category at the National Sales Congress Awards (NASCO) organised by the Sri Lanka Institute of Marketing (SLIM).

The Triumph Sales team bagged One Gold, One Silver and Two Bronze awards, competing in the ‘Sales front-liner’ and ‘Sales executive’ sections in the Fashion/Clothing category.

In a remarkable performance Triumph claimed all three awards on offer in the Sales Executive round, demonstrating a level of dominance unmatched by any other organisation at the awards ceremony.

The award winners were Aruna Buddhika – Gold Award, Sales Executive of the Year; Dhanushka Pradeep – Silver Award, Sales Executive of the Year; Nadeeka Nilmini Mendis – Bronze Award, Sales Executive of the Year and Asanka Upendra – Bronze Award, Sales Front-liner of the Year

Commenting on the achievement, Shalindra Fernando, Head of Sales and Marketing Operations India and Sri Lanka, said: “I’m very proud of the achievements of our sales team. In fact this is the second year that they have won four awards or more at the NASCO Awards. In 2011 we won two silver and two bronze, and this year we were able to go one better and win a gold award as well. It’s a reflection of their professionalism and commitment and to gain recognition in national forum such as SLIM NASCO is a wonderful feeling. My congratulations go out to the winners, the rest of the team and to Sales Manager Sajeewa Tillekeratne whose tireless coaching and mentoring has brought the team to this high standard.”
