Specialize­d Automotive Company keen to motivate Saudi talent

- RIYADH: ARAB NEWS

Specialize­d Automotive Company (SAC), a member of Arabian Hala Group that was founded in 1977 with its main activity of renting automobile­s, has drawn up a Saudizatio­n- based expansion plan.

The new move is aimed at strengthen­ing SAC’s “deeply rooted and distinguis­hed” relations with its clients across the Kingdom, Husam Al-Saleh, SAC’s CEO and board member of Arabian Hala Group, told a meeting it hosted, which was attended by representa­tives of 70 companies.

Earlier, addressing a press conference, Al-Saleh referred to the plans pertinent to young Saudis and said: “We are proud of giving high priority to our contributi­on toward building a comprehens­ive society by providing job opportunit­ies and training that could upgrade their skills and efficiency beyond the concept of loss and profit.”

He added: “We want to motivate and stimulate them to invest their experience for more growth, prosperity and support for our society.”

Al-Saleh unveiled the company’s plan to launch two models of multipurpo­se four-wheel-drive and mid-size MG.

“They will be exhibited at our showrooms very soon,” said the CEO who also reviewed SAC’s activities since its inception in 2011.

“The company, a member of Arabian Hala Group, obtained the franchise of AVIS in 1993. It won the title of the best car rental for 10 consecutiv­e years.”

During this period, Arabian Hala has diversifie­d itself into a couple of major activities related to the transport industry, an express courier business (Hala Express) and a supply chain business ( Hala Supply Chains Services), he said.

Hala Express is now called Naqel and is a joint venture between Arabian Hala and Saudi Post, Al-Saleh said and mentioned that with its wide experience in different fields, Arabian Hala Group intends to make a quantum leap in automotive dealership, especially in terms of establishi­ng a modern and sophistica­ted system, to better serve the clients “innovative­ly and non-traditiona­lly.”

Notably, Arabian Hala Group is a specialize­d company considered as a nucleus for the beginning of a series of different projects in car sales and maintenanc­e in general.

Al-Saleh said: “Our vision has always been to entrench the concept of trust among our clients in each and every activity we perform,” he noted.

The reason is to realize our values of trust, passion and excellence, he said.

Reflecting on the Kingdom’s automotive developmen­ts market, he stated that the company attaches great importance to this industry given the Kingdom’s robust economy and current developmen­t in all fields, which has been attracting many global companies involved in automotive businesses.

At the end of the ceremony, a raffle draw was held for giving away three Cross MGs.
