Mercedes Benz Malaysia (MBM CV) recently held the much-awaited FUSO Diamond Grand Prize party as an appreciation night for all purchasers of FUSO trucks throughout the year 2016. The night of merriment was held at the grand ballroom of Aloft Kuala Lumpur Sentral Hotel where attendees celebrated with food, friends in the industry and pleasant entertainment.

The 2016 FUSO Diamond Grand Prize is the fourth lucky draw party that has been held since 2013, where buyers of FUSO trucks would obtain their own numbers per their purchase of the trucks and have a chance at bringing home outstanding prizes. The contest was kickstarted with a mini draw in July 2016 which received 855 entries, and ultimately ended with the Grand Final Draw which saw the reception of 1 478 entries.

The grand prize this year was a Mercedes-Benz C200, along with an all-expenses paid trip to Japan, coupled with a visit to the FUSO Kawasaki Plant and Research & Development Center in Japan and service vouchers of up to a whopping RM 6 000. The winner of the Grand Prize was, a proud local business owner, Puan Noraini Binti Abdul Haris of I Aini Brilliance Enterprise. It was a huge surprise for her to be able to grab the grand prize home, since she was a first-time buyer of the FUSO trucks. 26 other lucky contestants reeled in prizes in other segments of the contest, which included trips to Japan and vouchers worth RM 5 000, RM 4 000, RM 3 000 and RM 2 000. Additional to that were consolation prizes worth RM 2 000 or RM 1 000.

Puan Noraini’s company is a logistics business which is run by her and her spouse. “Being a new FUSO customer, we did not expect to be as the Grand Prize Winner out of all the participants. The nature of our business involves us transporting goods based on rental services. We need our trucks to be in excellent working order at all times and this is why we were convinced by FUSO’s track record,” she commented. She further said, “Keeping our trucks working smoothly is important to help us meet our customers’ needs, and in turn help grow our business. We decided to go for a FUSO truck because it gave us value for money and we believe the after-sales service is very reliable. I personally feel that after sales service is very important to maximize vehicle uptime. We look forward to hopefully grow our fleet of trucks if the company’s business is good.”

Quoting Mr Albert Yee, Vice President of MBM Commercial Vehicles, “Everyday, our customers put their trust in their FUSO vehicles to help their business thrive. The FUSO Diamond Contest is our way of thanking them for their trust, loyalty and support. For the 2016 / 2017 contest, we received 2 363 entries, and we are absolutely thrilled that the response from customers has been so positive. Every year, we look forward to this event, and it has certainly been satisfying to see their winning smiles. We congratulate all winners, and we look forward to continue engaging our customers by delivering reliable trucks and unparalleled service quality.”

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia Commercial Vehicles promises to continue to set an example of how to keep their customers amused with tantalizing attractions, good relationship and excellent services.
