2GO Group Inc., the Philippines’ largest and broadest integrated transportation and logistics provider is solidifying its partnership with SM Retail Inc., the country’s leading retailer with a nationwide portfolio of department stores, supermarkets and specialty stores to expand 2GO’s store footprint and make transactions more convenient and accessible for its consumers.
“At the onset of the pandemic, majority of our company-owned stores and authorized agents closed and suspended operations, which limited 2GO’s footprint. This affected our business, including our customers’ accessibility to our products and services. Partnering with SM gave our customers the convenience because malls and groceries are open and within reach,” 2GO retail head Dennis Yaw said.
To address challenges and new customer needs, 2GO teamed up with SM Bills Payment to utilize 338 SM Business and Bills Payment Centers located in SM Supermalls, SM Supermarkets, SM Hypermarkets and Savemore Markets to facilitate the selling of 2GO Travel tickets and give assistance in delivering documents and small packages via 2GO Express and FedEx.
In line with 2GO’s growing partnership with SM, ScanAsia Overseas Inc. and SM Supermarket launched Holiday Baskets On The Go to deliver Christmas cheer straight to your doorstep.
“The season of merry making is just around the corner, and we want to spread the holiday cheer even from a distance through our gift baskets, which our customers can order online and send directly to their loved ones from the comforts of their home. This makes gift-giving easy, safe, and convenient,” the 2GO executive said.
