Haitham Musallam, representing OBCC at the signing ceremony, remarked: “While the durability, flexibility and advanced safety features of the new Actros were big factors in our decision to purchase as our new Mercedes-Benz fleet, our selection was also based on the expertise and experience of the Mercedes-Benz after-sales service network, guaranteeing the highest serviceability from our trucks,” remarked Musallam.
