ERAMAN<br />
BOUNCES BACK<br />
Malaysia Airports Niaga improves its sales<br />
performance for the first quarter of <strong>2016</strong><br />
ERAMAN<br />
General Manager,<br />
Zulhikam Ahmad<br />
Malaysia Airports (Niaga) Sdn Bhd or better<br />
known as ERAMAN is back in business with<br />
a gusto proving an increase in sales of up<br />
to 15 percent for the first quarter of <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
ERAMAN General Manager, Zulhikam<br />
Ahmad who has been with the company for<br />
over a year said, “ERAMAN being the largest<br />
duty free retailer in Malaysia has seen<br />
significant ups and downs this past year."<br />
“I am very pleased to note that this year<br />
however, we have seen a tremendous yearon-year<br />
increase in our sales for the first<br />
quarter of <strong>2016</strong>."<br />
Zulhikam added that although the company<br />
showed positive results, further improvements<br />
would need to take place in order for<br />
ERAMAN to grow its presence in leading<br />
airports in Malaysia and regionally. While the<br />
company continues to diversify its offerings<br />
with focus on its duty free businesses and<br />
food and beverage in airports throughout<br />
the country, it needs to also embrace the<br />
many new exciting possibilities and that the<br />
journey should not stop here.<br />
“We must remember that travel retail will<br />
face many implications and challenges<br />
ahead. With a strong growth in passenger<br />
movement this year and the launch of a<br />
year-long campaign to reward our loyal<br />
customers called “Eraman Sales<br />
Extravaganza”, I am confident that<br />
ERAMAN will flourish even further and that<br />
our sales can achieve a double digit growth<br />
by year-end based on sales figures.<br />
“It is crucial to move forward with continued<br />
vigour and cohesiveness as a formidable<br />
company and team, following the many<br />
measures that have been put in place in<br />
order to evolve.”<br />
