The Commercial Bank of Ceylon has once again partnered with Sathosa Motors (SML) to offer attractive terms and benefits on leases covering the latter’s complete range of Isuzu lorries and buses.

Renganathan, DGM Corporate Banking Marion Abeywardena, the Head of leasing and personal loans Nugent Kapuwatte, Sathosa Motors Finance Manager Thejani Kodithuwakku and Marketing Manager Neomal Fernando

Conscious of the requirements of businesses seeking to purchase new Japanese vehicles or to replace their used fleets, the promotion offers a minimum discount of Rs 50,000 on Isuzu lorries and Rs 150,000 on Isuzu buses purchased through this joint promotion, while Sathosa Motors also throws in six labour free services to the package.

Commercial Bank adds flexibility, offering competitive rentals and special payment schemes for selected models while arranging for attractive insurance cover for interested lessees through the Bank’s bancassurance channels.

Lessees’ convenience and speedy service is assured through the Bank’s islandwide network of branches and service points. SML would promote these special benefits through the company’s head office and its distributors in Jaffna and Ampara. This is the sixth joint promotion of this nature by Commercial Bank and SML. Commercial Bank Head of Leasing and Personal Loans Nugent Kapuwatte said, “Besides the tangible value additions embedded in this package, the ease of obtaining a lease through Commercial Bank and the confidence of having the country’s best bank as the leasing partner cum financial adviser makes this a strong proposition.”

He said the leasing promotion also reflects Commercial Bank’s continuing commitment to offer more to customers by entering into agreements that lead to significant benefits, cognisant of the current rapid development needs of the country.

Established in 1962, SML has succeeded in strengthening its reputation in the commercial truck segment with its brand of Isuzu commercial, heavy duty and light duty vehicles and pickup trucks.

The Isuzu brand has always commanded strong consumer confidence and loyalty whilst also enjoying the position as market leader in the local truck market.
