GRIT Awards: Chery Alabang bags 4th Dealer of the Year

Chery Auto Philippines (CAP) recently celebrated the exceptional achievements of its top-performing dealers at the GRIT Awards.

This annual gala, aptly named for its emphasis on Guts, Resilience, Initiative, and Tenacity, is a testament to the dedication and remarkable contributions of dealers in achieving exemplary sales and aftersales performance.

“Looking out at all of you, here at this beautiful seaside location, I can’t help but think of our theme for this year: ‘Navigators.’ Just like the ships that charted these waters in centuries past, you, our dealer partners, have been true navigators of success. You’ve steered through the ever-changing tides of the automotive landscape, and continue to guide Chery towards growth and bigger opportunities,” said UAAGI Chairman Rommel Sytin. ““The automotive world is never still. It’s a dynamic, challenging, and sometimes turbulent sea. But you, my friends, have shown us what true GRIT is. GRIT This is not just a word, it’s the very essence of what makes you the best in the industry,” Sytin added.

For the fourth consecutive year, Chery Alabang was honored with the prestigious Dealer of the Year Award (DOYA) in recognition of its exceptional performance in sales, aftersales, customer relations, and overall operations throughout 2024.
