reward their dealers from many parts of the country who performed well
was held recently. Over 700 dealers from different parts of the country
were present.
Douglas and Sons Marketing Manager, Anura Fernando said the Star
Night was an opportunity to reward their dealers who helped the company
to maintain its position as the market leader in Sri Lanka's auto parts.
Dealers who performed well last year were rewarded with a three- day

overseas tour. Mahinda Subasinghe of Pathma Motors said the company
knows how to show its appreciation to its dealers.

automobile batteries and automotive spares. It has a workforce of 225
