At its official brand launch, United Asia Automotive Group (UAAGI), the newly installed distributor of Chery automobiles revealed its plans to fast track the opening of 12 dealerships. Well, that number has just risen to 15 with plans to double its footprint in the next three years.

After just three months since its brand launch, sales operations have started in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.

For Metro Manila, Chery tapped the areas of North EDSA, Pasig, Pasong Tamo in Makati, and Alabang in Muntinlupa. The brand also kicked off sales in provincial areas in Luzon such as Cainta, Rizal; Marilao, Bulacan; Bauang, La Union; Bacoor, Cavite; and GMA Cavite. Chery will also be present down south through its dealerships in Iloilo; Talisay, Cebu; General Santos; Davao City; Tagum, Davao; and Cagayan De Oro.

“The trust of my partners is an important part of Chery Auto Philippines’ ongoing initiative to expand dealer network not just in the metro, but also in previously untapped urban and rural markets,” announced the grateful Rommel Sytin, President of UAAGI.

Underscoring the new dealers’ trust in Chery is the fact that none of the dealerships are new to the business. All current Chery dealers are multi-brand operations and, combined, have over 50 years of automotive experience, and employ more than 1,000 employees handling the Chery brand.

These multi-brand dealers include some of the most experienced dealership groups and principals in the automotive industry like A & B United Corporation, Absolute Advantage, Inc., Autohub Group, Alphamile Automotive Dealers, Inc., Autoperfection, Inc., Frontier Automotive of Chiongbian Group, Gateway Group, LICA Group, Magnet Motors, and San Juan Group among others.

Each Chery dealership will be fully equipped to offer a complete array of aftersales services for Chery automobiles including service, parts, and even financing programs.

Chery Auto Philippines plans to establish a total of 25 dealerships across the Philippines within the next three years.

Sytin added, “I am hopeful and overwhelmed with the trust and commitment of my dealer partners. We will continue to be aggressive in terms of providing fun, fresh, and practical driving experiences, as well as bringing state-of-the-art dealerships closer to our customers.”
