FUSO moves up to the 3rd spot

Filed under: Press Release — Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , — Marketing FUSO @ 9:36 am

Manila, Philippines — According to the recent July sales figures of the Truck Manufacturers’ Association (TMA), Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP), the general distributor of FUSO and one of the primary commercial vehicle distributors of brand-new trucks and buses in the Philippines hailed as Rank 3 in terms of truck and bus sales performance.

In addition, FUSO showed a remarkable improvement from January to July 2022 sales performance as it expanded by 26.2% compared to the previous year, while the industry growth showed 1% — this resulted in the improvement of FUSO’s market share to 11.4%.

Another breakthrough is the segment under the Light-Duty Truck covering 4.1T to 4.5T or Category 3 under TMA segmentation; FUSO was able to penetrate 22% market share in July, which allowed the brand to climb up to the 2nd spot. Thanks to the consistent sales contribution of FUSO Canter FE71 (4W) and Canter FE73 (6W) for making this achievement possible.

SFP President and CEO, Mr. Yosuke Nishi said, “FUSO’s 3rd spot in the overall industry is a proof that the brand has established a relationship with our customers.

FUSO has been in the business of providing reliable, durable, and efficient commercial vehicle products. With FUSO’s global brand tagline, “Future Together,” – SFP will continue to accelerate efforts to strengthen its growing business across the country further.

For the remaining months of this year, SFP is confident of achieving more sales milestones to expand market presence in the industry.

Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines, July 25, 2022 — The Japanese distributor of the popular Canter inaugurated its new 3S (Sales, Service, and Spare Parts) outlet in Cagayan de Oro City (CDO) last Monday, 25 July 2022. FUSO Cagayan de Oro will now address the customers’ requirements by providing sales and service support to further strengthen the FUSO’s presence in Mindanao. The new outlet is a great addition to the existing network of FUSO dedicated dealerships operating under Fast Autoworld Philippines Corporation (FAPC) — an authorized dealer of Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP).

Strategically positioned in Purok 8-A, San Pedro, Gusa, Cagayan de Oro City, 9000 Misamis Oriental this makes it very accessible to commercial, logistics, and automotive areas in the city center. FUSO CDO is equipped with new equipment, three (3) commercial vehicle showroom displays, service workshops, and skilled sales and aftersales team to offer support to all FUSO customers in the region. FAPC has been representing FUSO in the Visayas and Mindanao with 35 years of experience.

Besides being known as a spot for relaxing activities, Cagayan de Oro is also tagged as the City of Golden Friendship because of the utmost hospitality and smiles of the people of CDO, or what we called Kagay-anons who offer a warm welcome to tourists. It is no wonder the city has become a destination for foreign visitors.

Cagayan de Oro City is experiencing rapid economic development in Mindanao. Surrounded by commerce, trade, information technology, and automotive businesses, CDO is a growth driver of Mindanao as the city continues to grow.

“FUSO as one of the leading brands in the trucks and bus industry, will be relentless in giving customers products that radiate durability, reliability, and sustainability and offer the best value for money. The commercial vehicle market is indeed evolving, but given the persistent efforts, we are optimistic that FAPC and SFP will remain as a force to be reckoned within the years to come.” Mr. John Michael Ignacio, Manager – Vehicle Sales, SFP, explained while referring to FUSO’s commitment to provide high-quality products and services.

Speaking on the inauguration, Mr. Noriyuki Sekita, Executive Vice President – Sales and Marketing, SFP said, “FUSO has continued to expand its network since establishing its operations. Our on-going plans for dealer expansion will enable us to serve our current and new customers better, to deliver the standards of high-quality service moving forward. These are very inspiring times for FUSO, and we are very proud to be part of this journey with our dealer partners.”

FAPC AVP for Operations, Mr. Dax Albarece thanked SFP and partners who contributed to the success of inauguration of FUSO CDO, “We thank SFP for giving us the opportunity to serve as a FUSO dealership in Northern Mindanao. We thrive where the FUSO brand is needed, and we embark on this journey of service for our valued customers. Congratulations, FUSO Cagayan de Oro!”

FAPC has been one of the key dealer partners of SFP to support the brand and has an impressive business portfolio in automotive operations. FUSO has already established presence in Visayas and Mindanao provinces including Cebu, Davao, and South Cotabato.

The entire range of FUSO commercial vehicles from trucks to modern PUVs are now accessible to FUSO CDO.

FUSO stands out at the 2022 Manila Commercial Vehicle Show

Filed under: Press Release — Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , — Marketing FUSO @ 3:14 pm

Pasay City, Philippines, July 9, 2022 — For this year’s Manila Commercial Vehicle Show, Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP), the general distributor of FUSO and one of the Philippines’ primary commercial vehicle distributors of brand-new trucks and buses, exhibited Class 2 and Class 3 Modern PUVs together with the Canter FE71 with Aluminum Van Body at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City last July 7 – 9, 2022.

To meet the growing demand and expand its market in Metro Manila, the FUSO light-duty trucks and modern PUVs promise world-class performance, reliability, durability, and maximum business returns, suited for logistics, supply chains, and transport cooperatives.

“As Senator, I have called on the Department of Transportation (DOTr) to expand the contracting service program, to help public utility vehicle (PUV) drivers and operators secure their jobs as well as guarantee that fares in public transport will remain affordable,” says Hon. Risa Hontiveros, Senator, Republic of the Philippines.

As the government continues to strengthen the program of PUV modernization, many transport cooperatives still have concerns that they would like to discuss with specific authorities, making the Manila Commercial Vehicle Show an excellent platform to thresh out concerns regarding the transition of traditional jeepneys to modern vehicles.  

The 3-day show consists of different co-located events from each day. National Truckers Assembly commenced on Day 1, discussing the trucks offered by the brands, specifications, and market performance. SFP presented the F-Wing, a 32 ft. Wing Van Body mounted on the robust FJ 2528R chassis.

Day 2 focused on PUVMP-Jeep Forum and Bus Operators Assembly; SFP showcased the brand’s modern PUVs Canter Commute (Class 2) and Canter Express (Class 3) displayed in the FUSO booth.

The organizer (833 Marketing) also invited the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) Metro Pacific Tollways to promote safe driving and vehicle preventive maintenance as well as organize fun activities that instill safety among participants.

FUSO has a wide presence across the Philippines to assist transport cooperatives with their modern PUV requirements. SFP encouraged transport cooperatives nationwide to switch to safer, reliable, and more convenient modernized PUVs.
