Commercial Bank promotes MoneyGram in Cyprus

MoneyGram’s Regional Director Greece and Cyprus Ms Marietta Doxopoulou and the Marketing Manager, Greece, Cyprus and the Balkans Ms Silia Hatzissava are also in the picture.

The Commercial Bank of Ceylon together with MoneyGram International recently conducted a campaign to promote the money transfer service among Sri Lankan expatriates in Cyprus who make remittances to Sri Lanka.

Several senior officers of the Bank visited Cyprus to carry out this promotion. The group visited ethnic locations in Cyprus such as Sri Lankan shops and restaurants and met community leaders to discuss ways to make remitting their money back home more convenient, according to a bank statement. The team also carried out a street promotion and a special price promotion that attracted nearly 1000 people, and sponsored an event to celebrate the Cyprus New Year.

This is the second collaborative effort of Commercial Bank and MoneyGram International at an overseas location. Last year, the bank carried out a similar campaign targeting Sri Lankans in France.
