Trade Promoters Limited – Generator Suppliers Sri lanka

October 2012, COLOMBO – Cummins Power Generation generators successfully powered the recently concluded World Twenty20 cricket tournament in Sri Lanka, with an uninterrupted electricity supply to all the venues. Cummins, which is represented in Sri Lanka by Trade Promoters Limited (TPL), supplied equipment to power the floodlights of all three World Cup venues – R. Premadasa Stadium (Colombo), Pallekele International Stadium (Kandy) and the Mahinda Rajapakse International Stadium (Hambantota).

The International Cricket Council World T20 tournament, which ran from September to October, pitted 12 nations in cricket’s shortest format. West Indies lifted the trophy relegating hosts, Sri Lanka, to its fourth World Cup final defeat. The ICC World Twenty20 Sri Lanka 2012 was the second international cricket tournament to be hosted by Sri Lanka in the past 18 months. It was also the first time the Dubai-based ICC staged a Twenty20 World Cup in Asia since launching the tournament in 2007.

“This tournament is one of the world’s most viewed sporting events. Since most of the games are played at night under floodlights, Sri Lanka Cricket could not run the risk of a utility power failure. Their faith in us to supply power for this prestigious sporting event is a tribute to the reliability and advanced technology of Cummins Power Generation systems, and to the technical expertise and service provided by Trade Promoters Limited.” said Rohan M. Fernando, Chairman of Trade Promoters Limited.
