Du Ek Sam opens 3S shop for Suzuki motorcycles in Consolacion

DU EK SAM (DES) Marketing Inc. officially introduced its first 3S (service, sales and spare parts) shop for Suzuki motorcycles in the municipality of Consolacion last Friday.

This is the first time since their partnership in 1999 that Suzuki Motors Philippines and DES hooked up for a 3S shop.

The Suzuki 3S shop was supposed to have a grand opening last December 16 but it was cancelled due to Typhoon Nona.

Last Friday’s ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by Suzuki Philippines President Hiroshi Suzuki and DES Marketing Inc. officials led by Promotions and Marketing Officer Joycel Delgado.

Delgado told Cebu Daily News that Suzuki is one of the hottest selling motorcycle brands in the region, which is the reason why they decided to open a 3S shop with the partnership of Suzuki Motors Philippines.

“This is our first Suzuki 3S branch but all of our DES branches already have Suzuki motorcycles available. We have 37 branches here in Cebu,” Delgado said. “Actually, Suzuki has been a strong partner with us in this business. We see the potential in their products and this brand has one of the highest growth. We expect that we can dominate Consolacion with regards to our marketing and we have a great deal because we will offer our valued customers very low financing charges.”

The presence of the 3S shop is also expected to benefit Suzuki, according to Hiroshi Suzuki.

“This will give our customers a chance to experience great service, genuine spare parts and at the same see our newest models,” Suzuki said.

Last August, Suzuki Philippines launched three new motorcycle models in the Philippines. These are the Gixxer 150, Address 110cc scooter and the AX4 150cc. All three are available at the 3S Shop in Consolacion.

Suzuki also said that the opening of the 3S Shop along the national highway in Consolacion is a proof of the company’s success since last year, wherein its sales improved 11 percent compared to sales in 2014.

Aside from the new models of Suzuki Motors Philippines, the newly opened 3S shop will also offer other variants such as the popular Raider J115, Shooter 115 FI, Skydive 125 and the GD 110.
