LEPAS officially signs distribution agreements with 20 industry partners from Malaysia

LEPAS officially signed strategic Distribution Agreements with 20 key partners from Malaysia during the LEPAS International Business Summit held in Wuhu from April 26 to 28.

This signing marks a pivotal milestone in LEPAS’s global channel expansion, accelerating the rollout of its elegant mobility ecosystem and signaling a strong, dedicated commitment to the Malaysian market.

Positioned as the preferred brand for an elegant mobility life, LEPAS focuses on its three core pillars: Leopard Aesthetics, Elegant Technology, and Exquisite Space.

It is this shared recognition of LEPAS’s brand philosophy, product excellence, and commercial potential that has paved the way for this partnership.

LEPAS recognizes the profound value of the extensive nationwide footprint, uncompromising service standards and proven operational excellence these alliances bring to the brand. Their keen insight into the Malaysian NEV landscape align closely with LEPAS’s global development strategy.

“At LEPAS, we believe that elegance moves the world, and true elegance requires a truly refined customer journey,” said Sarah Choo, Senior Brand Director of LEPAS.

“By working as one unified front, LEPAS is establishing a standardized network system that promises immersive product experience, seamless sales and delivery and after-sales care. LEPAS is committed to bringing the elegant mobility lifestyle to consumers across Malaysia,” added Sarah.
