Mazda Motor Corporation is a Japanese-grown brand that began in the city of Hiroshima. In January of 1920, the company was established as Toyo Kogyo Corporation under the ownership of Jujiro Matsuda. They were considered to be Japan’s best cork producers that eventually made a name for themselves in manufacturing machining tools. Soon after, Matsuda ventured into producing the first motorized rickshaw in the market. The vehicle was called the Mazda-Go which was a reference to Matsuda himself.

1. About Mazda Philippines
History & development
After World War II, the company started developing the Wankel Rotary Engine which led to the production of the RX-7 and the RX-8 models. The same rotary engine was mounted on Mazda’s race car prototype, 787B, which merited the brand significant awards such as the 1991 Le Mans 24 Hour Race.
Since then, Mazda rose to fame as a highly reliable automotive manufacturer. The company further invested in research and engineering to produce new breakthrough technologies. Through this pursuit, Mazda’s SkyActive Technology was born.
The Japanese brand’s SkyActive Technology aims to provide fuel efficiency without compromising engine performance and drive experience. Together with this is the creation of a more modern aesthetic called Kodo. The technology is seen to make a huge impact in the ASEAN region which is accessible through the latest Mazda nameplates.
Local presence
Mazda Motor Corporation currently has distributorships in multiple regions around the globe which are North and South America, Europe, Asia, Oceania, the Caribbean, Middle East, and Africa. Its worldwide expansion eventually reached Philippine shores through the Malaysian Berjaya Group. The conglomerate is the same company that took over Mazda’s distributorship in Malaysia back in 2008.
The Malaysian multinational corporation ventured into the Philippine automotive industry and founded Bermaz Auto Philippines Inc. (BAP) in 2012. It was then appointed by Mazda Motor Corporation as the exclusive and official distributor of the brand’s vehicles in the country. BAP is under the leadership of President and CEO, Mr. Steven Tan.
