“In logistics, reliability is not a luxury; it is the foundation. Foton Motor Philippines has been in the country for almost 19 years, and DSSl’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 transaction, which goes far beyond a conventional sale. “This is no less than a collaborative alignment between Foton and DSSI, a leading 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 acquired a fleet comprising both Foton light-duty (LDT) and heavy-duty (HOT) trucks. The light-duty trucks are full electric vehicles (23 units of the Foton Tornado 3.6 EV), marking a significant stride in DSSI’s commitment to establish a sustainable logistics and carbon footprint reduction.

Aside from the Foton Tornado EV, DSSI also acquired 22 units of the GTL 6x4 Tractor Head.

Forging a partnership with DSSI validates Foton’s quality and technological advancements, particularly in the field of EV commercial vehicles. Ranking first in China for commercial vehicle exports for 13 straight years, and having sold over 11 million units worldwide, Foton isn’t just a leading Chinese commercial vehicle brand, but a global brand with a successful track record in markets worldwide.
