The company clarified in an official message forwarded to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Friday that this decision was taken due to an insufficient inventory level.
As a result, the management of Pak Suzuki Motor Company has decided to halt manufacturing at the motorbike plant beginning August 18, 2023, and ending August 31, 2023.
However, the corporation has stated that its automotive manufacturing facilities will continue to run normally throughout this time.
The current event follows the government of Pakistan’s announcement of a significant increase in petroleum prices.
This increase has led to an evident surge in demand for motorcycles, as consumers seek more fuel-efficient transportation alternatives.
Market analysts are keeping a keen eye on the situation as the temporary halt in motorcycle production could impact Pak Suzuki’s overall performance for the current month.
The company’s decision to focus on maintaining a stable inventory level showcases a strategic approach to address the market dynamics resulting from the fluctuating petroleum prices.
Pak Suzuki Motor Company Limited is still a major player in Pakistan’s automotive industry, and its reaction to changing market conditions will undoubtedly have an impact on the sector’s trajectory in the coming weeks.
