jpg-mid-EventsAs part of its efforts to reach out to a wider spectrum of customers and improve the levels of service, the Scania Kota Kinabalu branch has moved to a new location at the Kota Kinabalu Industrial Park in Sepangar.

The move is in line with Scania’s constant upgrading and improvements to the levels of service at all branches around Malaysia.  And with the Sabah market becoming an increasingly important market for Scania, it is only natural that this investment is put into place to prove Scania’s commitment to our Sabah customers.

 

“The new Kota Kinabalu branch shows the importance Scania’ is putting into the Sabah market.  Even during this difficult economic time, the investment in Kota Kinabalu is something Scania felt was important to raise the level of service for our Sabah customers,” said Idros Puteh, General Manager of Scania Malaysia.

 

“With this new branch, Scania hopes to bring a new level of service excellence to our Sabah customers, and further increase market share of both trucks and buses in Sabah,” he added. 

 

Already, Scania is the leading bus manufacturer for intercity routes in Sabah.  And the new Scania P-, G- and R-series truck with Opticruise automatic gearchanging and Retarder has given Sabah truck operators new light in operating efficiency, reliability and safety never seen before in the market. 

 

The new facilities – comprising of an administrative block, parts warehouse, special tools and component repair, and 9 service bays; making this one of the biggest single-brand commercial vehicle service centre in Sabah. 

 

At the helm of the new Kota Kinabalu branch is Mr Desmond Webber, the Branch Executive together with Mr Michael Dan, Sales and After-sales Support Senior Executive for Sabah & Sarawak.  The team consists also of 6 highly trained mechanics headed by a senior foreman, and are able to handle all servicing and major repairs. 

 

As is the standard for all Scania service centres in Malaysia, the branch is supported by Scania Assistance 24/7 road side recovery – fully equipped with tools and parts to handle emergency cases. 

 

The new Kota Kinabalu branch is now fully operational.
