Peugeot opens first two dealerships: Las Piñas and Cagayan de Oro showrooms now open

MANILA, Philippines - After announcing its assignment as official Peugeot importer and distributor late last year, Eurobrands Distributor Inc. (EDI) made a promise to open at least twelve dealerships in 2013—with at least one dealership to be opened each month.

That promise comes into fruition today as Peugeot formally opens the first two dealerships in the country—Peugeot Las Piñas and Peugeot Cagayan de Oro. Located along Zapote Road in southern Metro Manila and Mastersons Avenue in Cagayan de Oro City, Peugeot Las Piñas and Peugeot Cagayan de Oro aim to provide the full Peugeot ownership experience to their customers while ascribing fully to Peugeot international standards.

No less than Peugeot’s CEO for Asian Operations, Gregoire Olivier, will be on hand to formally open the dealerships. The EDI management team tasked to launch the showrooms, meanwhile, will be headed by EDI Chairman Johnny Hernandez.

With the twin opening ceremonies to be held today and tomorrow, EDI goes full blast with its dealership development program—a necessary step after the public’s warm reception of the French automotive brand’s initial offerings.

All four variants of Peugeot made available to the Philippine market—the 3008 crossover, the 5008 compact MPV, the 508 executive sedan, and the RCZ sports car—have garnered raves from the media practitioners who have driven them and have been received well by the public.

In the months to come, Peugeot dealerships in Quirino Avenue in Manila, Cebu, Pasay, Batangas, Marikina, Cabanatuan, C-5 Pasig, Bacolod, North EDSA and Davao City are also set to open. EDI has also revealed that all of the said dealerships will be full-service dealerships with full sales, service and after-sales facilities available.

When EDI announced its arrival into the Philippines last year, the company promised to bring in not just the best cars available from the Peugeot stable, but also the complete Peugeot ownership experience. This fast-tracked development is merely EDI’s way of living up to that commitment.
