“With this association, we are hoping to offer seamless service to many of our clients who look at South Asia as a contiguous market,” said Ohri.
Meanwhile, Brandon Cooke, the global partner, global chief marketing, and reputation officer of FCB Global, believes that the creative passion and business momentum made KL.LK the perfect partner for them in the Sri Lankan market.
