FOTON Motor PH forges partnership with logistics giant DHL

FOTON Motor Philippines Inc. (FMPI), the ISO-certified and one of the most established commercial vehicle brand in the Philippines, is set to hand over 45 FOTON commercial vehicles to DHL Summit Solutions Inc. (DSSI) in a partnership focused on driving sustainability, high-efficiency logistics and world-class operational excellence in the Philippine logistics sector.

“In logistics, reliability is not a luxury; it is the foundation. FOTON Motor Philippines has been in the country for almost 19 years, and DSSI’s confidence is a powerful endorsement of our commitment to providing reliable, durable, and efficient commercial vehicles to the Philippine market.” said FOTON Motor Philippines Inc. and UAAGI Auto Group Chairman Rommel Sytin.

“A Meeting of Global Minds” describes the momentous transaction, which goes far beyond a conventional sale. “This is no less than a collaborative alignment between FOTON and DSSI, a leading logistics venture between DHL Supply Chain and JG Summit Holdings Inc., in a unified aim to create a reliable, more sustainable and efficient future for supply chain operations,” said Levy Santos, general manager of FMPI.

DSSI has acquired a fleet comprising both FOTON light-duty (LDT) and heavy-duty (HDT) trucks. The light-duty trucks are full Electric Vehicle (EV) models (23 units of FOTON Tornado 3.6 EV), marking a significant stride in DSSI’s commitment to establish a sustainable logistics and carbon footprint reduction.
