Isuzu in the Philippines
The 1950s saw Isuzu’s Philippine debut through its line of trucks. In 1972, General Motors and Isuzu joined forces to create GM Philippines. More changes took place in the following decades, leading to the creation of Isuzu Motors Pilipinas in 1989. It is fully owned by Isuzu Motors Limited in Japan.
August 7, 1995 marked the birth of Isuzu Philippines Corporation, a forging of forces among Isuzu Motors Limited, Mitsubishi Corporation, Ayala Corporation and Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation.
More than 13 hectares of industrial land located at the Laguna Technopark in Biñan, Laguna now holds the company’s manufacturing facilities capable of producing 15,000 units annually through a modest yet productive work force.
Isuzu Philippines Corporation is guided by its corporate slogan “Your responsible partner”. This is evident in the implementation of the company’s policies and thrusts.
Even after 50 years, Isuzu continues to be at the forefront of helping the country move forward with tried, tested and trusted commercial vehicles and diesel engines. This tradition lives on as Isuzu provides first-rate customer service, boosts employee satisfaction and promotes social responsibility.
Carefully building its reputation on trust and dependence, Isuzu possesses core values unmatched by other vehicle manufacturers. It is no surprise then that Isuzu has come to be known as “The Nation’s Workhorse”.
