HNB PLC has entered into a strategic partnership with CARMART Ltd. to promote Peugeot and LEAP brand vehicles in Sri Lanka. The collaboration strengthens HNB Leasing offerings and expands access to globally recognised vehicle brands for customers across the island.
The partnership brings together HNB leasing expertise and CARMART’s growing digital and physical automotive marketplace platform Carmart.lk. The initiative aims to support vehicle ownership through tailored leasing solutions and seamless customer journeys that combine digital discovery with financing support.
HNB Senior Vice President/Head of Retail Banking Kanchana Karunagama said: “At HNB, we remain committed to pioneering partnerships that enhance customer access to premium mobility solutions. By combining our leasing expertise with CARMART’s platform, we aim to create a seamless vehicle ownership experience for Sri Lankan customers. This collaboration also highlights our dedication to offering flexible and innovative financial solutions that meet diverse customer needs. Through initiatives like this, we strive to empower communities by supporting economic participation, promoting financial confidence, and enabling individuals to achieve their aspirations.”
Through this partnership, HNB goes beyond providing access to premium vehicles. By offering tailored financing solutions for Peugeot and LEAP models, the bank empowers individuals and families to maintain a quality lifestyle while achieving their mobility goals. Leasing provides flexibility, financial efficiency, and peace of mind, allowing customers to enjoy the benefits of vehicle ownership without compromising their broader financial well-being.
“We are grateful to HNB for joining us in this partnership, which adds significant value to our platform and to customers across Sri Lanka. By integrating our vehicle marketplace with HNB’s leasing expertise, we can offer a convenient, reliable, and accessible pathway for customers to own trusted international vehicle brands,” said CARMART Director/CEO Yasendra Amarasinghe.
Together with CARMART, HNB ensures that mobility serves as a tool for enhancing daily life, creating new opportunities, and enabling Sri Lankans to pursue their aspirations with confidence.
