Isuzu Philippines continues fleeting campaign

1 of 3

FOLLOWING the successful staging of the 2025 Isuzu Truck Fest, Isuzu Philippines Corp. (IPC) continues to deliver its top-selling trucks to fleet customers across the country through its extensive dealership network. In a release, IPC said that it remains to be the “preferred partner for businesses that require durable, fuel-efficient, and reliable transport solutions” in areas such as tourism estate development to nationwide product distribution and city waste management.

Through its Isuzu Iloilo outlet, IPC delivered three units of the Isuzu FTS34L to the Sicogon Island Tourism Estate Corp. These trucks, each fitted with a boom crane, water tank, and vacuum body, are specially designed to support the development of Sicogon Island, a rising tourist destination.

“Since the island currently lacks established utility lines for electricity and water, these specialized trucks play a vital role in sustaining daily operations and supporting development. The Isuzu water tanker will ensure a steady supply of fresh water by transporting it from the island’s spring site to businesses and residents,” reported IPC. “Vacuum trucks handle sewage cleaning, helping maintain proper sanitation and environmental sustainability. Meanwhile, boom cranes are essential for ongoing construction projects, assisting in the building of new resorts and infrastructure that will further boost Sicogon Island’s tourism and economic growth.”

According to Sicogon Island Estate Operations Head Gerry Formes, the company previously used trucks from different brands but encountered operational challenges due to frequent breakdowns and unreliable after-sales support.

“With Isuzu, we are confident that our operations will have minimal downtime. The trucks are known for their durability, and the after-sales support Isuzu provides is strong. This is exactly what we need to keep the island’s development on track,” maintained Mr. Formes.

Meanwhile, though Isuzu Taytay & Orix Rental Corp., IPC also delivered 54 units of the Isuzu N-Series light-duty truck with aluminum van bodies to First PGMC Enterprises, Inc., a major distributor of liquid condiments such as soy sauce and vinegar. The delivery included a mix of four-wheeler and six-wheeler Isuzu N-Series trucks, tailored to meet First PGMC’s logistics needs. The fleet is comprised of 26 units of the Isuzu NLR85, 21 units of the Isuzu NMR85H, five units of the Isuzu NPR85K, and two units of the Isuzu NQR75L.

These new trucks will be deployed nationwide to transport goods from First PGMC’s production plants to distribution centers across the provinces, continued IPC. The Isuzu N-Series “was selected for its efficient power, durability, and reliability, making it an ideal choice for businesses involved in fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) distribution.”

Said IPC Assistant Division Head for Sales Yoshiki Sato, “The Isuzu N-Series is perfect for First PGMC Enterprises because it provides the right balance of power, fuel efficiency, and cargo space. Its reliability ensures that goods are delivered on time, making it the preferred choice for nationwide distribution.”

Last month, IPC, through Isuzu La Union, turned over 10 units of the Isuzu FVR34QS AMT with dump truck configuration to the City Government of Zamboanga. These trucks are a crucial part of the city’s initiative to improve garbage collection across all 98 barangays.

“Given Zamboanga’s proximity to coastal waters and marine ecosystems, efficient waste management is essential to prevent pollution and protect the city’s abundant reef fish population. These new Isuzu dump trucks will help ensure cleaner streets, safer waterways, and a healthier environment for the community,” said IPC. The Isuzu FVR34QS is designed for heavy-duty waste collection, boasting a payload capacity of up to 10,835kg and is powered by a 6HK1-TCN Blue Power Diesel engine that delivers 177ps and 706Nm.

At the turnover, IPC Department Head for Fleet Sales Mario Ojales reminded city officials of the importance of proper maintenance to ensure the trucks’ longevity, saying, “While Isuzu trucks are built for durability, proper maintenance and careful handling are still key to preventing breakdowns. That’s why we remain committed to providing ongoing support to ensure these units serve Zamboanga for many years. Through our dealership partners, we are always ready to assist.”

As part of every fleet purchase, IPC provides its comprehensive after-sales program, the “Isuzu Advantage,” designed to minimize downtime and maximize operational efficiency for businesses. This includes free driver and mechanic training, equipping operators with the skills needed to properly maintain their trucks and prevent breakdowns. Nationwide parts availability ensures that spare parts are easily accessible, even in remote locations, keeping fleet operations seamless.

Additionally, IPC offers on-site and roadside assistance, with quick service responses through Isuzu’s Mobile Medic Trucks and expert field engineers, providing customers with reliable support whenever and wherever they need it. For businesses operating in the provinces, these services are especially critical, ensuring that every Isuzu truck remains roadworthy and reliable for years to come.

“At Isuzu, we don’t just sell trucks — we build partnerships. Every truck we deliver is backed by our commitment to reliability and customer support. That’s why thousands of Filipino businesses continue to trust Isuzu as their ‘Responsible Partner,’” added Mr. Sato. For more information, www.isuzuphil.com or follow Isuzu Philippines on Facebook.
