A ground-breaking partnership has been announced that propels Al-Futtaim Auto & Machinery (FAMCO) KSA to the forefront of Saudi Arabia’s commercial vehicle landscape. FAMCO KSA has inked a strategic partnership with Ashok Leyland, a global giant and the fourth largest bus manufacturer worldwide. This collaboration marks a major milestone in FAMCO’s roadmap to rapid business expansion across the region.
Ashok Leyland is an established, formidable brand with a major market share within the bus and truck segment. Globally, the manufacturer is present in over 50 countries, offering a wide range of commercial vehicles, including trucks, buses, and special vehicles, catering to critical economic sectors such as logistics, construction, and public transportation.
“In our pursuit to continuously enhance customer experience and broaden our offerings, we are thrilled to welcome Ashok Leyland, a globally recognized brand, to Riyadh.
