One of the largest international manufacturers of earthmoving and construction equipment, EJCB, has opened up a dealership in Nepal and hopes to expand its presence in other South Asian countries as well.

EJCB has a strong presence in India and has appointed Morang Auto Works (MAW) as its Nepal representative. MAW says it has a network of branches all over Nepal and is geared to offer a better range of construction equipment to Nepali clients. ECJB's managing director, Onkar Singh Sunar inaugurated the MAW showroom in Kathmandu this week, and welcomed its Nepali partner to the ECJB family. Said Sunar: "The expansion of our range is part of our continuing commitment to help in Nepal's crucial infrastructure development plans."
