Scania Sets to Expand in Mindanao


Scania, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of trucks and buses for heavy transport applications, is set to take advantage of the steady economic growth of Mindanao fueled by the current administration’s program of Build, Build, Build. Scania hopes to attract fleet operators specifically those involved in the mining, construction, distribution, and logistics sector. With customer profitability as the starting point, Scania wants to be the leading provider of transport solutions. Together with their partners and customers, Scania aims to drive the shift towards a sustainable transport system.


“We develop close relationships with our customers and learn about their operations. This allows us to provide products and services that are tailor-fit to address their specific business needs,” said Leilani Lim-Tan, Vice President of BJ Mercantile, Inc., the local distributor of Scania. “I am proud to say that our current customers see us as partners in helping them drive down operating costs, maximise uptime, achieve fuel economy and maintain productivity while at the same time controlling emissions making their operations environmentally friendly.”




Scania understands that every business has different needs, specific to the type of service it offers. That is why Scania specializes in delivering customized transport solutions that drive the customer’s success, no matter what industry or application. 

There is also a Scania for every stage in mining. Tough mining conditions aren’t confined to sites, tunnels and transport tracks. Market pressures can be just as rough. Scania tailors solutions to ensure everything from drill rigs through to heavy haulage delivers commercial goals. Scania can customize trucks to create a perfect fit to deliver the maximum productivity, it can also provide buses to serve as people transport, marine engines for water transport and diesel generators to meet the demand for prime power and standby power generation.
For those involved in the delivery of General Cargo, Scania’s top priority is to optimise payload so you can carry more both there and back. Scania helps customers by pairing the strength of technical specifications with the smartness of optimised services.
There can be no compromise on safety if you are a petroleum hauler. No matter whether you drive upstream or downstream, locally or long-distance. For the sake of the community and the driver. At Scania we are constantly working to improve visibility, handling, braking and stability.
As an added benefit, Scania provides its customers with Fleet Management Services (FMS). The service helps identify and use the key details needed such as vehicle data, fuel, consumption, fleet position and driver performance (coasting, heavy braking, speeding or idling) that will help increase the productivity of the fleet, achieve fuel economy, and eventually reduce the cost of operations. It puts clear and useful information that helps operators better understand how their fleet is performing and what is costing money.
Scania customers in Mindanao can expect the same level of service excellence Scania is known for in Manila and all around the world. Scania workshop services ensure they get the highest-quality advice, maintenance and genuine parts whenever or wherever they need them.
