Astara, one of the world’s leading mobility companies, is the new exclusive distributor of JMC pick-up vehicles in the Philippines.
Aastara CEO Jorge Navea said the contract strengthens Astara’s relationship with the Chinese manufacturer, following the signing of similar agreements with Jiangling Motors Corp. Limited, makers of the JMC vehicles in Chile, Bolivia and Colombia in 2019.
“At Astara we are honored to include JMC in our distribution activities in The Philippines. This leading brand stands as a great asset to our portfolio in the Philippines, aligning perfectly with Astara’s vision for the future of mobility. Our successful representation of the brand in other countries demonstrates our ability to serve its loyal customers, dealer network, and business partners,” he said.
Astara’s distribution of JMC in the Philippines also consolidates the company’s strategic expansion in Southeast Asia, which started in 2021.
The company’s primary focus is to build a solid dealer network, achieve leadership in the pickup segment, and implement effective strategies to promote and strengthen the brand’s image and products.
Jiangxi Jiangling Motors Import & Export Co. Ltd.(JMIE) president Suen Xiaoquan is bullish about the Philippine automotive market.
“We collaborate with Astara in the pickup vehicle market. Together, we will offer more choices, better options, and exceptional customer service, all designed to meet the evolving needs of the market and exceed the expectations of Philippine consumers,” he said.
