GAC Motor Philippines, operating under global mobility leader Astara, continues to drive its expansion efforts forward with the groundbreaking of its first-ever dealership in Valenzuela. This significant milestone marks the beginning of GAC MOTOR’s growing footprint across the Philippines, with the new dealership set to open its doors to customers in December 2024.
Strategically located along the bustling MacArthur Highway, GAC MOTOR Valenzuela will feature a state-of-the-art facility, including a showroom that can display up to six vehicles and a fully equipped service center to cater to the growing needs of GAC MOTOR customers in the region. The groundbreaking ceremony, held on September 9, 2024, signifies not only the expansion of the brand but also a new venture into the automotive industry for ADOT Motors Inc., the dealership’s franchise owner.
The Valenzuela branch will be established as a 3S facility – encompassing Sales, Spare parts, and Service – meticulously designed to adhere to GAC MOTOR’s stringent international standards. The service center will boast advanced diagnostic equipment and specialized tools, ensuring GAC vehicles receive the highest level of care and maintenance. Moreover, the center will maintain an extensive inventory of genuine GAC MOTOR spare parts, allowing for swift and reliable service.
Franz Decloedt, Brand Head of GAC Motor Philippines at Astara Philippines, expressed his enthusiasm for the rapid expansion of the brand in the country. “We are truly thrilled with all of the consecutive dealership openings and partnerships we have cultivated throughout 2024, and we are excited to welcome ADOT Motors Inc. as our newest partner. This groundbreaking not only represents the first for the brand and the dealership, but it also symbolizes our commitment to bringing GAC MOTOR’s cutting-edge mobility solutions to the Filipino people.”
ADOT Motors Inc. President, Andre Douglas O. Tan, shared his excitement about this new venture, highlighting the dealership’s ambitions. “This groundbreaking is a significant milestone for us, as it marks our first venture into the automotive business. We are optimistic about our future with GAC MOTOR and confident that the brand’s reputation for innovation and quality will continue to resonate strongly with Filipino customers, just as it does today.”
GAC Motor Philippines is on track to reach 38 dealerships by the end of 2024, further cementing its position as a major player in the local automotive market. The company has already launched several dealerships in key cities this year, including Bacolod, General Santos City, Iloilo City, Marilao, San Fernando, Santa Rosa, and Cainta.
Looking ahead, the brand has plans to open more dealerships in high-potential locations such as BGC, Calamba, Fairview, Tacloban, Matina, and Zamboanga. This week alone, GAC Motor Philippines will inaugurate two new locations on the same day – one in Kawit, Cavite and the other along Mindanao Avenue, Quezon City.
GAC MOTOR vehicles are backed by a comprehensive after-sales warranty, offering customers a five-year or 150,000-kilometer warranty, whichever comes first. This warranty, coupled with 24/7 emergency roadside assistance provided during the first year of purchase, ensures that GAC customers enjoy total peace of mind when owning a GAC vehicle.
