FUSO adds a new dealer touchpoint in the Heart of the Philippines

Iloilo City, July 28, 2023 – With a strong focus on product and customer experience, in association with MNV Auto Group, Inc. Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP) officially inaugurated a new exclusive outlet in Iloilo City – the 2nd newest addition to FUSO dedicated dealerships in the Visayas region.

Tagged as the Heart of the Philippines, Ilonggos are known for their charm and sweetness as they wear wide beautiful smiles and offer a warm welcome to tourists.

Aside from its vibrant culture and artistic ecosystem, Iloilo is home to historical landmarks, beaches and islands, and delicious cuisine. Iloilo is also considered a first-class city surrounded by major industries such as port facilities, infrastructure, retail trading, and FMCG as it gears toward becoming economically sustainable. SFP sees a good market in Iloilo and is positive to penetrate the increase of businesses in the region.

MNV Auto Group, Inc. was established in 2021 from Avescor Motors, Inc. to provide focus on the commercial vehicle segment. The successful inauguration of FUSO Iloilo only signifies the assurance and trust to the brand to attain and gain further customers. With the support of SFP, FUSO Iloilo will surely be instrumental in expanding and promoting the brand in the Western Visayas region and continuously growing the market of FUSO.

Mr. Marc Vincent Tiu, President of MNV Auto Group, Inc. mentioned in his speech, “Embarking on the latest collaboration with SFP, the MNV Auto Group, Inc. looks forward to extending our reach and offering the Ilonggos and other neighboring cities in Western Visayas a kind of quality experience they get from all FUSO brand vehicles. MNV Auto Group, Inc. paved the way to let our customers marvel with the top-notch service of FUSO Iloilo from the spacious showroom, top-of-the-line tools to the fully equipped service bays.”

“The expanding market of FUSO Iloilo is an indicator that indeed, Western Visayas is actively “back to its business”. The strong partnership with SFP proves that MNV Auto Group, Inc. and FUSO Iloilo will continue to ascend higher.” He added.

The new FUSO Iloilo showcases a total floor space area of 978 sqm with well-equipped new tools, two (2) heavy-duty truck showroom displays, two (2) work bays with service pit, and a pre-delivery inspection bay to offer seamless service support to all FUSO customers located around the area and in the neighboring cities.

“To highlight, MNV Auto Group, Inc. – FUSO Iloilo is the first dedicated dealership we inaugurated this Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 and we believe we can penetrate more of the major industries in the city and the nearby areas. We are grateful to MNV for putting our plans into action with the success of this inauguration. As MNV continues to grow since our partnership in 2018, we are very excited to open this new dedicated dealership and enhance our customer’s experience by providing high-quality service.” said Mr. Yosuke Nishi, SFP President & CEO.

As SFP continuously plans to bring high-quality commercial vehicles, with the launch of the all-new Canter FE71 recently, SFP also makes sure that FUSO brand will be more and more accessible to customers while showcasing its full product portfolio of reliable and durable trucks, buses and modern PUVs.
