With a commitment to tripling its presence in Sri Lanka over the next three years, the company has appointed Mr. Suhard Amit as General Manager. Mr. Amit, a seasoned professional with over 25 years of diverse industry experience, will be based in Sri Lanka and tasked with overseeing operations for the markets in Bangladesh, Maldives, Bhutan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
