Kochi: The industrial finance branch of Dhanalakshmi Bank at Kochi has been awarded the ISO 9001-2000 certification by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) of the Netherlands.

"This ISO 9001-2000 certification is nothing but a well-deserved recognition to the strict adherence to our quality policy and systems, which states that the bank is committed to continuous improvement on business performance and the quality of services to provide total customer satisfaction," says Dhanalakshmi Bank chairman T M Venkataraman.
