Ashok Leyland has bagged an order for 290 fully-built Double Decker Buses from Bangladesh Road Transport Corporation (BRTC). Worth around $23.3 million, this represents the Company’s largest single order for Double Decker Buses from that country.
An agreement to this effect was signed by the Chairman of BRTC and Mr. Antony Lobo, Special Director-International Operations, Ashok Leyland at Dhaka last week.
Commenting on the order, Mr. Vinod K Dasari, Managing Director, Ashok Leyland, said: “Bangladesh has always remained a very important market for us. Our continued focus on this robustly growing market has helped us establish ourselves today as the second largest brand in that country’s commercial vehicle market. We will continue to maintain this focus in the coming years”.
