According to Shyam Maller, executive vice-president, Light & Medium Duty Trucks and Buses, VE Commercial Vehicles, “The e-commerce industry in India is growing at an exponential rate of 50 percent every year and we believe in serving our customers by providing them with the right and practical solutions for their requirements. Leveraging our established strength in the LMD space, we have widened our offering to cater to the specific demands of the high potential e-commerce market. Eicher now offers the widest and strongest range in the Light and Medium Duty (LMD) segment with products ranging from 4.9T to 16T GVW, out of which we have displayed 13 vehicles today. We believe ours is the most compelling proposition for this segment of the industry.”
