Company’s training facility nears a milestone

AHI Carrier has trained close to 250 customers, dealers, sub-dealers and consultants at its ACTS facility in Sharjah Airport International Free Zone, since the launch of the facility on November 20, 2011, the company’s General Manager, Ajit Chandraraj, said.

Saying that it was a matter of pride, Chandraraj added that the training programmes, at the 300-square-metre facility, covered a wide range of equipment, including residential, light-commercial and VRF units. The scope of the activity at ACTS, he said, included sales and marketing training, service training, controls training, installation, trouble shooting, commissioning and design.

“We are not merely selling products – those are sold across the shelf,” he said. “You really do need technical experts and competence to service the products in the marketplace. And that is why Carrier and Toshiba, two world-class brands, have come together to offer technical training.”

Chandraraj spoke of how AHI Carrier was constantly introducing new product ranges in Carrier and Toshiba, which he felt, gave the company a competitive edge. “We enjoy strong factory support to develop our market for the brands,” he said.

In February 2012, AHI Carrier launched the Toshiba VRF system for the Middle East region.
