Isuzu N-Series trucks beef up Shopee fleet

IPC turns over NMR units to Shopee

The logistics arm of e-commercial platform Shopee can now enjoy the reliability that the Japanese truckmaker Isuzu offers as a fleet of NMR85H aluminum van trucks were recently delivered to power its integrated service offering.

In a statement, Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) Executive Vice President Shojiro Sakoda expressed the company’s gratitude over the confidence that Shopee Xpress (SPX) has entrusted them.

“On behalf of Isuzu Philippines Corporation, thank you to Shopee Xpress Philippines for trusting us to become their new, responsible partner. With the NMR’s tried and tested DNA, we are confident that they will be able to achieve their goal of safe and seamless deliveries in the fastest time possible,” Sakoda was quoted as saying.

IPC Sales Division Head Joseph Bautista said that Shopee sellers and customers can expect more efficiency through the units. “From here on, Isuzu is looking forward to contributing to a more enjoyable e-commerce experience to Shopee sellers and customers through the NMR’s proven reliability and versatility on the road,” Bautista added.

Aside from Sakoda and Bautista, Isuzu Automotive Dealership, Inc.’s (IADI) Chief Operating Officer Alex Paguio graced the turnover ceremonies.

Powering the Isuzu NMR85H is the 4JJ1-TCC Euro IV diesel engine that has peak performance of 122hp and 354Nm of pulling power. The 14-foot rear body configuration (along with the reliable powertrain), can safely carry high volume cargo — making it ideal for Shopee Xpress which places importance in providing utmost care and handling especially when transporting from one hub to the other.

Further, IPC noted that its wide dealer network offers readily available parts as well as expert after-sales maintenance and care for end-to-end support in productivity of operations.

Shopee Philippines Director Martin Yu expressed pride over the newly-forged alliance.  

“Isuzu is firmly anchored on customer satisfaction, and that is something we value at Shopee. Shopee Xpress is proud to partner with Isuzu in ensuring the overall online shopping experience is reliable, exceptional, and satisfactory for all our stakeholders. With a brand-new middle mile fleet of durable and dependable NMR Trucks from Isuzu, we are able to operate efficiently and effectively as we deliver goods from sellers to buyers,” he said.
