Transporation

He described the Foton range of trucks as the ideal logistics solutions that suited various industries.

“Foton has been in Ghana for over 16 years and has evolved over the period to become what it is today. Foton has reached a very great stage of its story,” he stated.

The JMTC General Manager, Sales and Marketing, said the vehicles offered a comprehensive line-up of products with excellent quality and competitive and affordable prices.

Mr Kabbara informed the gathering that together with Foton, a technical training centre had been established in West Africa to provide more support to customers.

For his part, Mr Lan from Foton Motor called on the Ghanaian market and beyond to trust the Foton brand as a global leading commercial vehicle with enough capacity to provide professional sales and after-sales support to promote businesses.
