FUSO Philippines joins Commercial Vehicle Show in the Culinary Capital of the Philippines

Clark, Pampanga, March 31, 2022 — As we continue the drive for PUV Modernization, 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 participated once again at the Clark Commercial Vehicle Show held last March 31 to April 1, 2022, at Fontana Leisure Parks & Casino, Clark, Pampanga with the theme, “Transport Cooperatives Transformation towards the New Normal”.

Considered as the Philippines’ Culinary Capital, Pampanga offers more than just a great introduction to Filipino food. Just a couple of hours away from Manila, Pampanga is also classified as a first-class and highly urbanized city surrounded with industries from automotive and agricultural businesses to forestry. SFP believes that the introduction of the FUSO modern PUVs to the city will help transport cooperatives in showcasing the efficient, safe, and accessible modern transportation system.

“This is a very timely event, given all the issues that our public transport system is facing at the moment – from the shift to the PUV Modernization Program, the continuation of the challenges of this pandemic, and skyrocketing price of fuel all over, I am very hopeful that this congress will help us all figure out what our next steps should be moving forward in order to best support the public transport sector through these issues. To that end, we have filed the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program Act and the Transportation Cooperatives Development Loan Fund Act to enable our transport cooperatives to effectively modernize.” says Sen. Juan Miguel Zubiri.

This program of the national government is a comprehensive system reform that can entirely change the Public Land Transportation system. As the country works toward economic recovery, the Clark Commercial Vehicle Show is a good venue to discuss the issues and concerns of transport cooperatives that support the shift to PUV modernization.

Part of the event program is a presentation of the brand’s modern PUV. SFP showcased the powerful performance, reliability, and durability of both FUSO Canter Commute (Class II) and FUSO Canter Express (Class III).

Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation Assistant Manager for Product Planning, Ms. Nolyn Mae de Guzman presented the FUSO Class II and Class III Modern PUVs from specifications, interior and exterior body, accessories and vehicle certification.

Moving forward, SFP is committed to tie-up with more transport cooperatives in support of the Philippines’ PUVMP. SFP believes that FUSO products can meet the goal of a more sustainable public transportation system for the country.

Canter Express exhibited at Commercial Vehicle Show in the Tuna Capital of the Philippines

Filed under: Press Release — Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , — Marketing FUSO @ 2:59 pm

General Santos City, October 29, 2021 – Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP), the general distributor of FUSO trucks and bus in the Philippines successfully showcased the brand’s modern PUV, the Canter Express, in the General Santos Commercial Vehicle Show in partnership with the National Federation of Transport Cooperative. The event was held at the Venue 88, Hotel and Events Place, General Santos City (GenSan) from October 29 to 30, 2021.

While GenSan is known for its big fish port and Tuna processing facilities, it has continually become more attractive now—with the presence of major economic infrastructure support facilities comparable to international benchmarks. Several business dealers are also operating vigorously showcasing their brands across the busy streets of the city, making it a good venue to present the FUSO modern PUVs.

This is the second time the Canter PUVs were presented in a Commercial Vehicle Show. Like the previous Cebu CVS last July 2021, the event’s objective is to discuss the implementation of Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program (PUVMP) across the country.

Senator Miguel Zubiri outlined the legislative plans for the transport cooperative emphasizing modernization loan applications. “Alam ko pong may sarili tayong challenges sa ating transport sector, at handa po akong tumulong maghanap ng solusyon para maayos nating maisagawa and PUV modernization dito.” Zubiri stated. Addressing transport cooperatives concerns, Zubiri further discussed PUV modernization efforts to finally commence the program.

SFP together with its dealer, Mindanao Integrated Commercial Enterprises, Inc. (MICEI) exhibited the FUSO Canter Express showcasing the proven quality, durability, and strong performance of the brand’s modern PUV.           

Through the event, the GenSan Commercial Vehicle Show addressed the transport cooperatives concerns and queries about the government’s PUV modernization program. By identifying the concerns or issues, the transport groups were able to collect information and fully understand the modernization program towards the new normal.

SFP remains committed as general distributor of FUSO trucks and bus in the country and is accelerating efforts aimed to further strengthen its growing business across nationwide. The exhibit of the FUSO modern PUVs is a further statement of the brand’s commitment to technological innovations and high customer satisfaction.

FUSO Philippines strengthens Sales and Aftersales tie-up with Shopee Xpress

Filed under: Press Release — Tags: , , , , , , , , , — Marketing FUSO @ 3:19 pm

Paranaque City, Philippines — Focusing on providing extensive logistics support for fast delivery time and safe shipment of products nationwide, Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP), the general distributor of FUSO trucks and bus in the Philippines continues to strengthen Sales and Aftersales support to one of the leading e-commerce platforms in Southeast Asia, Shopee Philippines. Last July 2021, SFP turned over ten (10) FUSO FJ 2528R Wing Van trucks to SPX Philippines, Inc. (Shopee Xpress), the company’s standard delivery service.

Launched in 2015, Shopee aims to provide customers with an easy, secure, and fast online shopping experience through strong payment and fulfillment support. With more people relying on ordering, delivering, and tracking items due to pandemic, SFP considers this partnership is a great choice for improving operational efficiency.

The FJ 2528R, a 25-tonner, 10-wheeler is the first heavy duty truck in the Philippines to have a natural 32-feet loading span. The truck’s size and its toughness make it ideal for distribution of products across the country. Powered by a fuel-efficient 6S20 diesel engine, FJ can deliver an output of 281 HP and 1120 N-m of torque. The 6S20 engine is mated to a 9-speed manual transmission with double synchronizer designed for quicker and smoother operation, better acceleration, and fuel economy. The FJ is also equipped with dual circuit full-air brakes for a more reliable braking performance.

The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) provide additional safety and utmost care to deliver goods and cargoes. The FJs then are expected to travel and deliver the products from Shopee sellers nationwide.

Another pillar of this partnership is the Aftersales services. Last August 7 and September 6, SFP conducted a wide range of training programs such as Basic Truck Information, Periodic Maintenance Service, Safety Driving Measures, and Efficient Driving to Shopee’s drivers and operations team. This ensures proper handling of the FJ 2528R.

Shopee appreciates SFP’s assistance in training our drivers and operations team – “We hope that these programs will help our drivers manage the trucks better and our daily operations run more smoothly.” says SPX Philippines, Inc. (Shopee Xpress) Logistics Head, Mr. Jessie Baylon.

Partnerships Cluster Lead, Ms. Mara Villareal, Alpine Motors Corporation (AMC) President & CEO, Mr. Francis Martin Gonzales, SFP Head of Vehicle Sales Mr. Dan Jalbuna, and AMC Sales Consultant, Mr. Ruben Ronquillo)

Shopee is known for offering seamless and reliable services to million of users nationwide. SFP is proud to handover a brand-new FUSO fleet of reliable and durable trucks to support Shopee and its subsidiaries in delivering their services across the Philippines.

SFP has a wide network strategically located outlets and service centers across the Philippines, which offers high-quality trucks and buses and reliable service that cater to all business needs and customer requirements.
