After recently launching a new dealership in Imus, Cavite, Mitsubishi Motor Philippines Corporation (MMPC) has yet opened another outlet in Talisay City in Negros Occidental.
Mitsubishi Talisay Negros
MMPC is proud to inaugurate a dealership as Negros Occident is the fourth-largest and second-most populated island in the Philippines. Overseeing the operations is the Mitsubishi Talisay Negros’ owner and manager, MG Gateway South Corporation (GSC).
“We are extremely thankful and very humbled to be given this opportunity to open another Mitsubishi dealership. This is also very special to us because this is our first dealership in the province of Negros Occidental,” said Gateway Group Chairman Markane Goho.
It is under the Gateway Group
Located along the main road of Lacson Street in Zone 15 Poblacion, the Mitsubishi Talisay Negros is sitting on a 4,200 m2 land. It is capable of servicing 18 vehicles in the dealership’s service area. Moreover, the showroom is built to display up to seven Mitsubishi vehicles.
The reach of the Japanese marque’s models such as the Xpander, Mirage G4, Mirage, Montero Sport, Strada, and Outlander will be expanded in the new dealership. It also offers the company’s commercial vehicle entry, the L300, for those Negrosanon who are in the market for a reliable business mobility partner.
Gateway Group will enhance the presence of Mitsubishi in the Visayan region
MMPC officially welcomed Mitsubishi Talisay Negros to its dealer network via a virtual gathering last February 18. The said event was also in celebration of the re-launch of Mitsubishi Motors Quezon Avenue which is now managed by GSC.
“It is no secret that the Gateway Group has a history of success and expertise. This is proven not just by their longevity in the business but also in the way they embrace challenge. Re-launching an already existing dealership with Quezon Avenue and opening in a new region with Negros, simultaneously, is no easy feat,” said MMPC President and CEO Mr. Takeshi Hara.
