NEW SANDAKAN WORKSHOP REINFORCES THE WIDEST SERVICE NETWORK FOOTPRINT IN MALAYSIA FOR SCANIA

23 January 2019 - Scania has recently launched a new workshop in Sandakan, Sabah. The workshop will service customers in the Sandakan, Lahad Datu and Tawau areas. This facility adds to an already wide service network in Malaysia that provides the best services for safety, fuel economy, uptime and environmentally friendly solutions for truck, bus and coach operations. Scania's presence in Sandakan will increase the convenience for our customers to enjoy all of the benefits Scania has to offer.

 

Equipped with two work bays and manned by three technicians, Scania has invested over RM500,000 to build this workshop. The skilled technicians can work on up to four vehicles per day. The number of technicians can be increased when needed to support our customers. Like all Scania employees, they will continuously receive formal training and undergo on-the-job training to enhance their skills, knowledge, professionalism and teamwork to ensure that they deliver a more effective service to their customers.

 

Scania customers in Sandakan can continue to enjoy profitability in their operations through Scania’s sustainable transport solutions. Maintenance Services, Repair Services, Parts Services, Driver Services (consisting of Driver Training & Coaching), Fleet Management System (FMS), Financial Services, 24/7 Scania Assistance roadside services (by calling 1800-88-0500) is available to customers.

 

“We have been in Sabah for a long time and we continue to see potential growth in the state, especially in the east coast of Sabah. Our strategic presence in Sandakan complements the Kota Kinabalu facility in order to support our customers in achieving profitability and sustainability,” said Scania Southeast Asia Managing Director, Marie Sjödin Enström.

 

“For customers to get the most out of their fleet, it is vital that Scania can support them with the right solutions. Convenient access to workshops and genuine parts is crucial for our customers anywhere. Our parts add value to their business because they are engineered for ultimate performance, endurance, fuel economy and safety, as well as lower environmental impact,” added Marie.

 

The workshop will also make it easier for the customers in Sabah to adopt the Scania Ecolution programme which is a partnership-based solution for operators and businesses to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Operators will see their total operating economy improve while building a sustainability image that their customers can be proud of.

 

As part of the opening, Scania will be running a Recon Truck Promotion until the 31st of March 2019. Owners of reconditioned Scania trucks can get a free health check and a free Scania retrofit of FMS or free activation of FMS.
