Shell and SOLLERS sign agreement
Last October, Shell Neft LLC and DC SOLLERS LLC signed partnership agreements effective for five years. The agreement stipulates that Shell lubricants shall be recommended for use in all SsangYong automobiles purchased in Russia through the official dealer network. Under the agreement, Shell will supply Shell Helix engine oils and a wide range of fluids and lubricants which the company produces. Training, technical support and the implementation of special programs for SsangYong dealers are also part of the agreement. “We lay big hopes on the SsangYong brand in Russia. Renewal of the product range and offering of a new successful product – NEW Actyon – will help us to double the automobile sales this year,” said Alexey Volodin, managing director of DC SOLLERS LLC. William Kozik, general manager of Shell Neft LLC, said, “For the several years already, Shell Corporation has been the world’s leading lubricant supplier. We are looking forward to starting cooperation with SOLLERS and SsangYong, which is one of the most rapidly growing brands in Russia, and believe that the partnership will be beneficial, above all, for SsangYong owners, who will be able to appreciate the high quality of Shell lubricants.” (October 17, 2011)
