Foton showcases innovative mobility solutions at PIMS 2022

For over 15 years, Foton Motor Philippines has been catering to the Philippine market by providing mobility solutions to meet the needs of both Filipino motorists and businesses. Foton is one of the oldest Chinese automotive brands to enter the country and was the first to break into the Top 10 brands in vehicle sales in the Philippines.

It has since expanded its reach and enhanced its reputation by consistently providing world-class technology in every commercial vehicle segment and curating innovative after-sales programs for all customers. And Foton is all set to showcase its extensive lineup of state-of-the-art commercial vehicles at the Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS), which runs from September 15-18 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City.

The brand has been particularly effective in offering Filipinos the perfect vehicle for their logistics needs—a huge boon, especially in this unprecedented pandemic that has devastatingly hit the economy by affecting supply chains. Amid the ongoing pandemic that has slowed everything down, Foton is accelerating.

Foton is making a strong push to cater to the changing demands of the Filipino motoring public through its capacity to customize its vehicles to the customers’ needs. This is the power that the brand has and is dedicated to further pursuing.

“Throughout this pandemic, we have always ensured that companies are able to not just to sustain their logistics business, but actually make them thrive by providing them with tailor-fit products based on their needs and ultimately making our vehicles profitable for them,” said Foton Motor Philippines President Errol Duenas.

“And amidst this pandemic, we launched the ‘Empowering the Filipino Business’ campaign as part of the brand’s comprehensive efforts to help our fellow citizens step up against economic difficulties and challenges. Since then, Foton has been providing accessible and affordable mobility plans all throughout the country and at all price points,” Duenas added.

Throughout the show, Foton Motor Philippines will continue to deliver its message of support for every Filipino business powered by the brand’s commercial vehicles’ world-class durability and dependability. It offers a holistic customer experience ecosystem through after-sales programs such as the 24/7 EC Mobile that no other brands provide.

Foton has kept the logistics industry thriving with over 24 dealerships working on one goal of providing innovative mobility solutions that are proven with partnerships with many of the largest and most well-known logistics companies in the Philippines.

“We’re excited to have a wide range of Foton trucks and commercial vehicles to meet every need, from family transportation to commercial vehicles for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), all the way to heavy trucks and equipment on-site at the Philippine International Motor Show,” said Levy Santos, Foton Motor Philippines VP for Sales and Marketing.
