September 15, 2026, Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines — Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC), together with dealer partner North-min Auto Dealers, Inc. (NMADI), successfully gathered fleet operators, cooperatives, non-government organizations, bank partners, business leaders, and industry stakeholders during the Isuzu NMADI Trucxpo 2026, held on September 14-15 at the Isuzu Cagayan de Oro Showroom.
The two-day event showcased Isuzu’s comprehensive lineup of commercial vehicles alongside trusted body builders and equipment suppliers, allowing attendees to explore transport solutions tailored to various business applications. By bringing together transport solution providers, industry experts, and business decision-makers, the expo served as a platform for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and business development across Mindanao.
“At Isuzu, we understand that businesses require transport solutions that are reliable, efficient, and aligned with their operational requirements. Through the Isuzu NMADI Trucxpo, we provide customers with access not only to our commercial vehicle lineup, but also to the expertise and specialized solutions of our trusted partners, helping them make informed decisions for their businesses,” said IPC President Mikio Tsukui.
As Northern Mindanao continues to grow as an important center for commerce, logistics, agribusiness, and various industries, the Isuzu NMADI Trucxpo 2026 underscored IPC’s commitment to supporting regional economic development through dependable commercial vehicles and comprehensive customer support.
Business-Ready Mobility Solutions for Mindanao Enterprises
The Trucxpo’s vehicle displays highlighted Isuzu’s ability to support a wide range of business applications, from people mobility and cargo delivery to cold-chain logistics and more. Featured with specialized body configurations from trusted partners, the lineup demonstrated how Isuzu vehicles can be customized to meet the evolving requirements of businesses across Northern Mindanao.
Leading the display were the three configurations of the Isuzu TRAVIZ, demonstrating the vehicle’s versatility as a light-duty transport solution. These included a Utility Vehicle (UV) configuration for equipment and passenger mobility, a Refrigerated Van for temperature-sensitive deliveries, and an Aluminum Van designed for enclosed cargo transport.
Also featured were the Isuzu FVR Refrigerated Van and Isuzu FRR Refrigerated Van, highlighting Isuzu’s capabilities in supporting cold-chain operations. These medium-duty truck applications help businesses transport perishable goods such as food products, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-sensitive cargo while maintaining product quality throughout the delivery process.
Completing the display lineup was the Isuzu NQR Dropside, a practical transport solution for businesses requiring efficient loading and unloading of cargo. Its dropside body configuration makes it suitable for transporting construction materials, agricultural products, hardware supplies, and various commercial goods.
Driving Business Growth Through Knowledge and Collaboration
Beyond the vehicle showcase, the Isuzu NMADI Trucxpo 2026 provided attendees with opportunities to gain valuable industry insights through a series of breakout sessions, technical consultations, and networking activities.
One of the event’s highlights was a technical forum facilitated by the National Meat Inspection Service (NMIS), which discussed cold-chain standards and transport regulations relevant to businesses involved in temperature-controlled logistics. The session provided participants with practical guidance on regulatory compliance, operational best practices, and emerging industry developments.
Throughout the event, attendees also engaged directly with Isuzu representatives, body builders, equipment suppliers, bank and loan institutions, and industry experts to discuss transport solutions that not only comply with NMIS standards but also address their specific business needs.
Reflecting the event’s focus on enabling business growth through transport solutions, NMADI General Manager Nyle Balasabas underscored the importance of supporting the industries that drive the entire Mindanao economy. “We don’t just sell trucks. We help businesses move. And when businesses move, industries move. When industries move, communities move. And when communities move, Mindanao moves forward,” said Balasabas.
The Trucxpo concluded with the Isuzu NMADI Partners’ Recognition Night, which recognized fleet customers, government and local business enterprises as well as bank and insurance partners for their continued trust in Isuzu products and services. Awards were presented across several categories, including Corporate Sales Excellence Award, Government Sales Excellence Award, and Fleet Aftersales Excellence Award, among others.
The recognition program reflected IPC’s commitment to building long-term partnerships with businesses across Mindanao. By honoring organizations that continue to rely on Isuzu vehicles and aftersales support to drive their operations, the awards highlighted the important role that customer partnerships play in sustaining business growth and operational success.
Through the Isuzu Trucxpo 2026, IPC reaffirmed its commitment to being a Responsible Partner to Filipino businesses by bringing together transport solutions, technical expertise, and trusted industry partners to help customers drive productivity, compliance, and business growth.
