Toyota opens dealership in Tugbok, raising its Mindanao network to 12

Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has opened a new dealership in Barangay Tugbok, Davao City, bringing the automaker's number of Mindanao outlets to 12, according to the Daily Tribune.

Toyota Tugbok, Davao Inc. was inaugurated on 13 November 2026. The dealership sits along the Davao-Bukidnon National Highway and is expected to serve motorists in Tugbok and neighbouring communities, in a district that links the city's urban centre with residential, agricultural and commercial areas.

The facility has a total floor area of 11,470 square metres and runs as a full 3S dealership, meaning it handles vehicle sales, maintenance services and spare parts. It has 18 service bays and 10 body and paint bays for maintenance, repairs and other after-sales work.

TMP said the dealership is part of its nationwide expansion strategy, which aims to widen customer access to its products and to vehicle maintenance and repair facilities, while responding to growing transportation needs in Davao City.

TMP President Masando Hashimoto, who attended the site's groundbreaking in 2024, called the completed dealership another milestone in the company's expansion. He said the facility would help Davao customers own a Toyota while "contributing to the growth and prosperity of the city of Davao."

Toyota Tugbok President Betty Lu said the dealership carries a responsibility to uphold the automaker's service standards, pledging that the team would "protect the Toyota brand with the highest honor."

Davao City Mayor Sebastian Duterte joined Toyota executives and local officials at the inauguration.
