2GO Group Inc., the Philippines' largest transportation and logistics solutions provider and part of SM Investments Corporation, is gearing up for the surge in demand for cargo and deliveries during the holiday season by strategically preparing major hubs outside Metro Manila.

In a statement, the firm said they visited Clark and Subic in Central Luzon, Cebu City in Central Visayas and Cagayan de Oro in Northern Mindanao, to strengthen main trade hubs across the country that serve as central points for consolidating and distributing goods.

Building its presence in these strategic locations allows 2GO to move deliveries faster for industries, businesses and for personal deliveries.

According to the logistics provider, this strategic endeavor aligns with 2GO’s dedication to advancing local business and catalyzing industries while optimizing operational efficiency and service excellence for its clients.

"As the country’s largest logistics service provider, we embrace the philosophy of readiness regardless of season,” said Frederic C. DyBuncio, President and CEO of SM Investments Corporation and 2GO.

He added that, “Anticipating the increase in logistics movement during this joyous time of year, we consistently invest in supply chain preparedness by establishing a foothold in our hubs and maintaining a capable workforce.”

“We prioritize customer satisfaction and continue to deliver on our commitments to our customers and partners, ensuring success regardless of the season,” DyBuncio noted.

2GO said it is dedicated to fortifying its network of strategic hubs across key cities in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The company’s logistical product portfolio was made to serve a purpose to a diverse client base.

In addition to the service portfolio is the LCL shipside services, a tailored service representing an expedited Less than Container-Load (LCL) offering. This pioneering solution is operational in its Manila, Cebu, Iloilo, Zamboanga, and Cagayan de Oro hubs.

LCL services continue to be offered in 2GO’s network of 17 vital ports of call, which serve as pivotal gateways for both dry goods and temperature-controlled cargo.

Its clientele includes top domestic and international FMCGs, manufacturers, distributors, industrials, and agricultural businesses, covering a wide range of industries across the nation.

With LCL, 2GO extends logistics support to MSMEs and entrepreneurs, ensuring that businesses of all sizes benefit from our comprehensive solutions.

“2GO has embarked on a proactive initiative to collaborate with key stakeholders in important logistical regions across the Philippines,” said 2Go Business Unit Head for Express and Forwarding Faye Alonzo.

She added that, “Reinforcing our presence in major gateways not only provides us with efficient forwarding and cargo services but helps our partners and clients increase market reach, find more opportunities, and bridge logistical requirements.”

2GO’s comprehensive logistics services include transport via cargo forwarding via air, land, and sea to key strategic hubs nationwide to ensure efficient service coverage.
