Home News Jumbo Jet to take legal action against unauthorized resellers of ‘Sinotruk’ vehicles
Companies that continue to infringe on the legally binding agreement between the China National Heavy-Duty Truck Group and Jumbo Jet Auto Sales will be subjected to injunctions and swift legal action in the future.
This position was arrived at after the founder of Jumbo Jet Auto Sales, Nasrudeen Mohamed, expressed concern that members of the Guyanese business community are falling victim to false advertising on the importation of the brand ‘Sinotruk’ dump trucks.
Jumbo Jet Auto Sales and the China National Heavy-Duty Truck Group have entered into a contractual agreement that gives Jumbo Jet the exclusive right to import and distribute all Sinotruk, HOWO and CNHTC brands in Guyana.
However, it has been brought to light that companies are illegitimately advertising the sale of units carrying the trademarks of these vehicle brands, and those companies have gained increased popularity.
When contacted to comment on the false advertising by local companies, General Manager of Caribbean Operations, Taonaijie, indicated, “We have issued an official legal document to a Guyanese businessman who is presently advertising the sale of dump trucks without authorization…All unauthorized resellers both local and international, will be served with legal documents to secure the binding agreement between the two official parties, with the maximum penalty in the form of liquidated damages in the millions of US Dollars.”
With over 32 years of experience, and being the holder of two exclusive franchise rights (XCMG & Sinotruk), Jumbo Jet claimed to be instrumental in the growth of the mining, agricultural and construction sectors through the importation of thousands of heavy-duty machines, trucks and vehicles.
The demand for this new dump truck has increased tremendously. Thus far, Jumbo Jet explained, customers have been extremely pleased with the durability, reliability, off-road capabilities, and increased payload capacity of the units bought from their establishment, who trade on their excellent after-sale service and flexible payment plans.
China National Heavy-Duty Truck Group has given Jumbo Jet Auto Sales full authority to investigate all unauthorized companies who continue to disregard their legal rights. It urges these enterprises to seek official permission or reselling rights before mass marketing misleading information on outdated models of Sinotruks with no official after-sale warranty.
“Let it be known that all unauthorized companies who continue to falsely advertise and host fake or illegal promotions shall be subject to the full brunt of the law. Please cease and desist immediately, and terminate all infringements by submitting corresponding rectification evidence within 10 working days to the authorized dealer upon their request…All purchasers who have been misled by the said false advertising can contact the Jumbo Jet Offices for consultation on possible spare parts and an official service schedule.”
