The local seller of Chinese automobile brand GAC Motor opened another dealership in the Philippines this month, pushing the number of its stores in the country which carries the brand to 32 with its new 3S facility (sales, spare parts, and service) in Pampanga.
GAC Motor Philippines, whose parent company is the Spain-based automotive giant Astara, inaugurated their Angeles branch with their partner DreamCar Unlimited Automotive Corporation last November 14.
“We’re thrilled to have expanded GAC Motor Philippines so rapidly in 2024 with new dealerships and partnerships,” GAC Motor Philippines and Astara Philippines brand head Franz Decloedt said in a statement.
“Our latest venture here in Angeles City marks our second dealership location with DreamCar Unlimited Automotive Corporation, and together, we excitedly bring the cutting-edge mobility of GAC Motor to more Filipinos,” he added.
