Mr. Giorgio Gramegna, Director of Europe at GRI said, “The acquisition of ATRA is a strategic move by GRI. This significantly strengthens our business in Hungary for all our key products. Hungary is also ideally located in Europe between Western and Eastern Europe. It brings us closer to all our customers in neighboring countries and has the potential to be a noteworthy logistics and operational hub in the region.
“We are truly honoured to serve our customers in Hungary. Expanding our footprint across Europe is a key strategic thrust for GRI, as we see immense potential to provide superior services in the continent and secure a significant market opportunity. GRI is already located in Germany, Spain, France, Netherlands, and the Baltics; and now we are in Hungary as well,” stated Dr Mahesha Ranasoma, CEO of GRI
Mr. Prabhash Subasinghe, Managing Director of GRI said “Acquiring ATRA was an easy choice, as it services all the categories of GRI specialty tires, and it has maintained an impressive heritage of customer service, professionalism, and sustained business growth consistently increasing its market share. We are delighted to welcome ATRA into the GRI family as we look forward to unlocking greater synergies in the Hungarian market. I thank all stakeholders who worked tirelessly to make this acquisition a success.”
