Abans Finance adds two more customer centres in Moratuwa and Piliyandala
Abans Finance added two more customer centres during February 2012 to its network of customer centres making the total number, five as at end of February 2012. The two new centres have been opened at Abans Showrooms in Moratuwa and Piliyandala. In January 2012, the company opened its first two customer centres that were located within Abans Showrooms. This is an achievement for the company. These Customer Centres are expected to deliver enhanced volumes of business in Finance Leasing and Hire Purchase for the company.
The location of the centres within Abans showrooms is a new con- cept developed by the company in association with its Holding company. This unique feature will assist Abans Finance to share common facilities and invite prospective customers of its holding company who visit the showrooms. The two units that were opened in the month of January in Ja- Ela and Kiribathgoda have shown promising results that would contribute towards the build-up of the company’s lending portfolio, gradually.
Abans Finance is expected to enhance its customer centre network in a well co-ordinated manner that will ultimately bring about positive results for the com- pany in its operations.
