Green logistics pioneer Mober said it is accelerating its expansion with plans to establish large-scale electric vehicle (EV) charging hubs in Bulacan and Laguna provinces.

Mober chief executive and president Dennis Ng said the planned facilities would support the company’s goal of growing its EV fleet from 200 to 500 units by end of 2025.

The new hubs—each expected to span about 6,000 to 10,000 square meters—will be strategically located to accommodate Mober’s growing logistics network.

The South Luzon hub in Laguna is slated to be operational before the second half of 2025, while the North Luzon hub in Bulacan will follow soon after.

Ng said the investment for these hubs would be substantial as the company plans to acquire the land for their construction.

“We don’t have the figures yet, but this time, we’re acquiring the property. The Pasay hub will be the smallest in our portfolio,” he said.

The expansion follows Mober’s P14-million investment in Central Charge on March 10, 2025, located in HK Sun Plaza, along Macapagal Ave. in Pasay City.

The Pasay facility, which operates under a five-year lease, will primarily serve the logistics needs of IKEA. Most of the investment was allocated to electrical cables and transformers to ensure seamless operations.

Mober’s Central Charge covers 3,000 square meters with a 56-port capacity to serve Mober’s mixed fleet of e-vans and e-trucks.

With a structured three-shift system, the logistics company has the capacity to charge up to 200 EV trucks daily, ensuring round-the-clock operational support for its logistics fleet.

“At Mober, we’ve been committed to finding solutions to infrastructure challenges since our transition to EVs in 2021. Central Charge demonstrates our vision to pave the way for a cleaner, more efficient future for our clients and solidity the Philippines’ place at the forefront of sustainable logistics in Southeast Asia,” Ng said.
