• Hino all set to deliver Total Support to Negrenses with first Negros dealership

Hino Motors Philippines (HMP), the exclusive distributor of Hino trucks and buses in the country, has officially inaugurated its first Negros dealership in Talisay City, Negros Occidental. Another proof of Hino’s commitment to deliver Total Support to its customers, Hino Negros is set to bring premium quality products and efficient services to address the trucking and bus needs of the Sugarbowl of the Philippines and its neighboring cities.

Strategically located along the main road northbound of Bacolod, this new dealership is accessible to more Filipino customers and business partners. It is expected to deliver reliable logistic support, demand for which is rising alongside the steady economic growth in the region. The major industries in the region include agriculture, bioethanol fuel, information technology, business process outsourcing and construction.

“We saw the huge potential of the market here nine months ago when we first broke ground in this area. It brings us great pride and excitement to see the Hino Negros dealership being fully operational and ready to serve customers who are in need of a trusty partner for their truck and bus needs. We are confident that the quality we offer will make our products stand out among the medium and heavy-duty truck segments in the local market here,” shares HMP Chairman Mr. Vicente T. Mills, Jr.

As a 3S dealership center, Hino Negros is fully equipped to provide trucking and bus solutions for every customer need. Aside from its showroom facility where Hino’s lineup of products is displayed, the dealership has express service bays and a dedicated after-sales service facility to accommodate check-up and other maintenance requirements. The dealership is managed by Truckmax Sales and Services, Inc. under the leadership of its president, Mr. Aylwin Y. Yap.

“Hino Negros will provide Sales, Service, and Spare Parts of Hino vehicles to serve the growing demand of this progressive city. As part of the Hino Network, we will not only support you with quality vehicles but we will be there to provide you Total Support. It means minimizing customer’s downtime by putting in place unsurpassed abilities to service and maintain customer vehicles. In Total Support activities, of course, aftersales service is the most important. To fully support our customers, we will also provide safety & eco-driving driver’s training which are still part of our Total Support activities. Aside from trainings, we will provide offsite maintenance through our mobile workshop and fleet maintenance program. We will definitely continue to pursue excellence and quality of our products and services at all times — that is the Hino promise,” says HMP President Mr. Mitsuharu Tabata.
