PRNEWS Admin Leave a comment

Nueva Ecija is a landlocked province located in Central Luzon Philippines and one of the top producers of agricultural products in the country. Due to the remoteness, the population of Nueva Ecija is dependent on land transportation for the logistics of goods.

FOTON Sta. Rosa opened its doors to the Novo Ecijanos, to provide the network of reputable FOTON Vehicles and to allow them to experience the vehicles that suit their needs and lifestyles. On their first year of operation, they bagged the FOTON Dealer Rookie of the Year Award because of their remarkable sales and after sales performance.

This monumental feat highlighted FOTON Sta. Rosa’s delivery of outstanding levels of customer service and dedication to the brand. FOTON Sta. Rosa’s sales and service team both go hand-in-hand to provide assistance to their clients and ensures that their customers are satisfied not only at the time of purchase, but as long as they own their vehicle.

One of FOTON Sta. Rosa’s clients has shared how they got to know about FOTON and how their experience was in this dealership. “When I was surfing the internet, I saw an article about the FOTON Traveller. It was awarded as the Best Van for 2013-2014 by the Car Awards Group Inc.(CAGI) that’s why I gained confidence in buying it”, says Mr. Wilfredo Reyes. He adds that they were assisted very well by Sales Executives up to the Gen. Manager. “With the experience I had with the team of FOTON Sta. Rosa and the FOTON Traveller, we are looking forward to purchasing another vehicle from FOTON and recommend the same to our friends”.

Another client of FOTON Sta. Rosa, Dr. Honorato Soniega, shares that he was very happy with FOTON Sta. Rosa’s service, “The employees are good and polite, maasikaso sila. They also make you feel like the dealership is just like your home”. He decided to buy a FOTON Thunder for his business and also use it as his personal service vehicle; “I was amazed by the very powerful Cummins engine. The pick-up is fast and easy to drive!”.

Armed with durable vehicles and excellent customer service delivered by FOTON Philippines and its dealerships, the FOTON brand is geared to be the leader on providing reliable vehicles and service to the versatile Philippine market.
