McLarens Lubricants Ltd, a subsidiary of McLarens Group and the authorized distributor for Mobil Lubricants in Sri Lanka, recently held its annual dealer awards night to reward the best-performing dealers from around 3,000 registered retail partners. 


Selected island-wide top-performing partners participated in this annual event, which was organized as an award ceremony, where 74 awards were presented under 7 different categories.   


Shehara De Silva, Group Managing Director of McLarens Group commented on the event, 
“We are thrilled to be able to take this opportunity to appreciate trade partnerships with our dealers and to recognize and award our top best-performing dealers. 


Even during these times of tough economic downturn, we will continue to support all our loyal retail partners island-wide in 2023, through unique loyalty programs providing benefits to both retailers and consumers, and in turn, we hope to help them grow and sustain their business.”     


During the pandemic since early 2020 and with the ongoing economic downturn, McLarens continues to maintain its supply of products without interruptions and hindrance to trade. In April 2022, with the exchange rate increasing and global base oil and additive prices skyrocketing, all engine oil prices went up by more than 100 percent which in turn affected both the dealers and consumers. 


However, in December 2022, McLarens together with ExxonMobil Asia Pacific, reduced the prices of fast-moving Mobil products in the Sri Lankan market, making them affordable for consumers even during the challenging times. 


ExxonMobil Asia Pacific, the manufacturer of Mobil lubricants has continuously supported the Sri Lankan market in developing retail and consumer promotions, and special recognition needs to be given for their marketing and sales support for Sri Lanka.
