(JAC sole agent), a leading automobile company in the forefront of providing economical solutions to Sri Lanka’s transportation needs, symbolically handed over a fleet of trucks recently to ACL Cables PLC and Kelani Cables PLC, two of the pioneering companies in electrical transmission and communication cables manufacturing, further strengthening trade relations.
This event was ceremoniously held at the Bandaranaike Memorial Centre on 16 January, with the participation of a large distinguished gathering including senior executive officers of Euro Motors, ACL Cables PLC Managing Director Suren Madanayake, Director Daya Wahalathanthri, and Kelani Cables PLC Chief Executive Officer Mahinda Saranapala.
ACL Cables Group had been provided with over 20 trucks as the initial step, and another 50 trucks were handed over to them on this day as the second stage.
Speaking at the event, Euro Motors Director Ravindra Senaratne said he was humbly pleased over the possibility of providing a large number of JAC vehicles to two of the reputed Sri Lankan electrical and cable suppliers right away and also over the trust placed on JAC vehicles and Euro Motors by those companies. He further said that the number of people purchasing JAC trucks keeps increasing day-by-day, since the vehicle has practically proved its motto; ‘Carrying the biggest load giving no worries to the mind’.
Suren Madanayake said during the event that high quality, excellent aftersales service, and ample spare parts availability (through Euro Motors’ own outlets and dealer network) of JAC vehicles imported and distributed by Euro Motors, as well as their efficient way of providing services and solutions, also influenced them to purchase a fleet of trucks in this manner for the second time. Madanayake further added that this initiative had been taken for the betterment of ACL and Kelani Cables dealers, as well as to improve their efficiency.
