Access and Samsung enter into strategic alliance for air conditioning

Access International Projects, a subsidiary of The Access Group, one of Sri Lanka’s fastest growing conglomerates in a diverse range of areas, set up a strategic partnership with Samsung Electronics, Korea for the Sri Lankan air conditioning enterprise market that further accelerates the company’s unique position in providing enterprise service collaborations to customers island-wide. 

Together with Samsung, Access envisions providing innovations in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) Engineering that will transform air conditioning by boosting energy efficiency and performance, maximizing space, and increasing cooling speed in addition to cutting edge product innovations. 

Commenting on this partnership, a spokesman for Access International Projects said, “We are proud of this strategic alliance, marking another important step in strengthening our presence in the country. Over the years, Samsung has established itself in the market as a forerunner in hi-tech technology that offers the best products and user experiences to customers. At Access International, we focus a lot of our attention on after sales service while Samsung spends a lot on research and development. We therefore envisage that this partnership will offer customers with state-of-the-art air conditioning facilities that live up to quality standards. We believe that Access and Samsung can synergistically work to achieve aggressive and ambitious goals in the future.”

This joint venture will extend customers with fully integrated solutions from design, supply, installation and maintenance of complete HVAC systems coupled with consistency in standards of service. Further, Samsung recently moved into a new office that they call The “Dream Academy” which will augment local support to Sri Lankan customers and will be a platform to assist customers in any HVAC queries they may have. 

A spokesman for Samsung Sri Lanka said, “Samsung entered into the air conditioning business in 1974 and has since then collaborated with renowned conglomerates to provide cutting-edge innovation for enhanced performance, efficiency and reliability. We strive to improve performance in all products and have successfully met the growing needs for specialized features in air conditioning. Access International Projects has been recognized for its exceptional after sales service and functioning that is at the heart of the company and is one among the sole reasons we believe this partnership will take our products and services to the next level.” 

“We want to be known as a company that offers quality solutions at a fair price with undisputed after sales service” stated the Access spokesman. “We are also cut from the same fabric of The Access Credo of providing our customer quality, on time and within budget. A partnership with a global leader such as Samsung will significantly strengthen our product offering to their key clients”, further commented.
