Walk the talk

ACI Motors Limited

Currently, the commercial vehicle market is experiencing a negative growth, but the light commercial vehicle market is growing at 5 percent. However, the industry will certainly experience growth in the future with the opening of the Padma Bridge and as we improve our traffic management system.

To facilitate this growth, the government should review the duties on commercial vehicles. Additionally, they should set up training institutes to encourage more people to become heavy vehicle drivers.

Regarding future plans, ACI Motors is planning to set up an assembling plant for Foton vehicles in Bangladesh as we see a great potential in this market.
