With the current health crisis that the country is experiencing, the Japanese car maker Isuzu, however, is on full throttle in making a positive sign to contribute to the economy by expanding its dealership network in Mindanao Region. Under its local unit, Isuzu Philippines Corporation, the company announced the opening of Isuzu Tagum.

Headed by Walter Alvarez, president of Image Motors Davao Del Norte Inc (Isuzu Tagum), the new 5,000-square meters dealership will provide commercial mobility to entrepreneurs in the City.

In his welcome remarks, IPC President Hajime Koso shares the perseverance of Image Motors Davao Del Norte Inc, to see Isuzu Tagum through to its completion despite the unusual challenges in 2020. “We know this has not been an easy decision to open a dealership at this very challenging situation, but you kept to our schedule amidst the delay due to the different community quarantines,” Koso stressed.

Koso added that the opportunity to grow the Isuzu brand in the region and serve a rapidly growing customer base inspired the team to work through the challenges. “Tagum has emerged into a booming city with a strong economic development brought by different businesses citywide. It has become inevitable for IPC to set foot here, so that we can cater to more customers in the region,” Koso explained.

Isuzu Tagum is strategically located at Barangay Canocotan, along the road that connects to the three major road network systems—the Philippine-Japan Friendship Highway, the Davao-Mati-Agusan Road, and the Davao-Bukidnon Road—that links the city to other major destinations in the region and to the rest of Mindanao.

The Isuzu Tagum dealership is hard to miss, with its expansive 5,000-sqm facility that not only features the latest Isuzu Outlet Standard (IOS) showroom design, but also its large service shop that can cater to 9 light commercial vehicles and 4 trucks all at the same time.

During the online event, Isuzu Tagum officers offered a virtual tour of the dealership’s facilities, showroom, and service bays. “Isuzu Tagum demonstrates our dedication and commitment to create tailored transport solutions that make the greatest difference to individuals and businesses anywhere in the Philippines,” Koso concluded.

Isuzu Tagum now joins IPC’s network of 46 dealerships nationwide, offering world-class vehicles, and exceptional after-sales services.
