Investing.com -- VinFast (NASDAQ:VFS), the Vietnamese electric vehicle maker, has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Motech Automotive Service Centers, a franchisor and operator in the Philippines. The MOU, signed on February 28, 2025, aims to extend the service network for VinFast electric vehicles in the Philippines, in response to the growing demand for such vehicles among Filipino consumers.
As per the agreement, VinFast and Motech are set to collaborate on accrediting 63 Motech service workshops as authorized VinFast service centers. These centers will be qualified to perform repairs, warranties, and maintenance for VinFast electric vehicles in the Philippines.
VinFast has plans to establish more than 100 similar service workshops across the Philippines this year. The recent agreement with Motech is part of VinFast’s strategy to grow its partner network in the Philippines. Motech’s service workshops will adhere to VinFast’s standards for facilities, equipment, and personnel, with a focus on providing genuine services and parts to VinFast owners.
In order to expedite the growth of Motech’s authorized VinFast service workshop system, VinFast will offer personnel training and technical advice. This support is crucial considering the anticipated increase in the volume of VinFast electric vehicles in the Philippines.
Motech currently operates a widespread chain of auto service centers across the Philippines, from Tuguegarao at the tip of the Philippine archipelago, to the main cities of Metro Manila, and down south to the island of Mindanao. The two parties will also explore business cooperation opportunities, information sharing, and joint marketing activities related to electric vehicle after-sales services in Southeast Asia.
