Mr. Yosuke Nishi, President & CEO of Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation: “The partnership between SFP and the dealer network has experienced ups and downs.

This year, 2024, we will remain true to the theme “Moving Forward.” There will be challenges, but we will continue progressing with the momentum we’ve built. This leads me to our constant call for your support to keep the efforts going. We have a long way to go but are already making headway.”

Mr. Nishi congratulated all the winners by ending his closing remarks with, “A big thanks to all of you for your excellent performance and contribution. Tonight is more than a recall of our balances; it celebrates everyone’s hard work”
