Strategically located along the main automotive road across the premier Ayala North District, the dealership is easily accessible to trade zones which allows for the assistance and accommodation of more customers. The expansion in key growth areas such as Negros Occidental is part of the company's objective to increase its presence nationwide. "We at Hino Motors Philippines are always looking for opportunities to better serve the Philippine market by providing high quality trucks, buses and automated services while also strengthening our stronghold in the country. By opening more dealerships outside Metro Manila, we are able to bring efficient, durable, safe and eco-friendly trucks and buses to more Filipinos, especially in the Negros region where major industries require medium and heavy-duty trucks," shared HMP Chairman Vicente T. Mills, Jr. Negros Occidental, known as the Sugar Bowl and Renewable Energy Capital of the Philippines, leads the country's sugar and bioethanol fuel production, making the province the 3rd richest in the Philippines and the 2nd richest in Visayas region.
