In addition, Singer also won the “Peoples Durable Brand of the Year” award for the 14th consecutive year further asserting its market leadership throughout the island and years of continuous trust placed by its consumers.
Organized by the Sri Lanka Institute of Marketing (SLIM), the SLIM – Nielsen Peoples Awards allows the general public to name a host of their favourite entities, such as brands, personalities, advertisements, films and teledramas that have made a significant impression in their minds during the past year.
