Discussing the Company’s network expansion plan and the new branch, Mr. Duminda Weerasekara – Chief Executive Officer at Mahindra IDEAL Finance said, “Guided by our overall business growth plan, our network expansion strategy has identified Katugasthota as a key nexus in the Central Province. It is where, in fact, both the A9 and A10 highways meet, while Katugasthota also serves as one of the three main entry points to the City of Kandy. As a result, it is ideally suited to serve customers in parts of the Greater Kandy Area, in the direction of both Kurunegala and Matale, areas that are hives of commercial, industrial and agricultural activity in the region, particularly for SMEs. It will also be an opportunity for us to provide and create value for the many wealthy businessmen, landowners and merchants in the area, with regard to investment and wealth creation opportunities. The exceptional and emerging talent pool in the area is also very attractive to us.”
