The Chinese carmaker is expanding its network nationwide.

Sojitz G Auto Philippines (SGAP), the official distributor of Geely vehicles in the country, once again successfully expanded its business network in the country by opening the Geely Cebu dealership, the first dealership of the brand in Visayas.

Last year, Geely managed to open numerous dealerships in Luzon and Mindanao. Geely also had a good run in 2020 in terms of total passenger vehicles sold based on last year’s CAMPI and AVID reports. The Geely Coolray is the brand’s best-selling unit and is also a top-seller in the subcompact crossover segment.

Filipino car buyers can now easily get their hands on Geely vehicles such as the Geely Coolray, Geely Azkarra, and Geely Okavango.

Geely Cebu is being managed by its dealer partner, Gateway Group of Companies. This dealership is the Chinese carmaker’s second Geely outlet after it opened Geely Lipa, Batangas just last year. Gateway Group President Markane Goho expressed his excitement towards the opening of the Geely dealership in Cebu saying Geely is a fast-rising auto brand.
