EDSA traffic can sometimes be unbearable—at times even nerve-wracking, slowly torturing each and every motorist at his or her very gut. Good thing, Chevron Philippines Inc. (CPI) made things easier for everyone with its newest service station located along the shackles of this traffic-laden thoroughfare.
With this, the company gets to build on the momentum they had last year with this latest addition to CPI’s growing network of service stations across the country. The said station is strategically located along Edsa corner Scout Borromeo Street, Quezon City, which experiences heavy traffic every day.
“We had about more than dozens of stations opened nationwide last year and we want to continue on with that momentum for this year,” Chevron Philippines Inc. District Sales Manager Kit D’aran said in an interview.
“We want our loyal customers to continue on experiencing our top-quality fuels,” he added.
Motorists and residents along the southbound lane of this intersection now have easier access to Caltex with Techron Platinum, Silver or Diesel fuels.
The fuels firm aspires to sustain the growth it has achieved last year and is looking to continue expanding its retail network in the country until the end of the year.
There are about 600 Caltex service station spread across the country, including six that opened in the past three months alone.
“The energy economy of the Philippines has been robust and showed steady growth throughout the past year,” CPI Country Chairman Louie Zhang conveyed with the media.
“We’re continuously working hard to be the partner of Filipino motorists for their fueling needs, and our retail expansion efforts have been strategically planned to support this vision.”
During the station’s grand opening, motorists who fueled up got to enjoy a P10-per-liter discount for Platinum with Techron, Silver with Techron and Diesel with Techron D for up to 60 liters through a promo called “Caltex Gimme 10”. Along with this, a P50-per-bottle discount was available for synthetic engine oils and a P20-per-liter discount was given on premium mineral engine oils.
Customers also received free Happy Plus loyalty cards. Points earned using these cards can be used to redeem food products at Jollibee, Chowking, Greenwich and Red Ribbon branches nationwide.
To further enhance customer experience and be that ideal one-stop shop for its loyal customers, the new service station will host several retail stores in the next few months.
These complementary stores include quick-service restaurants to cater to motorists’ need for light meals and other cravings when they drop by the new Caltex station on their way to work, school or any other destination for the day.
Road users can find the nearest Caltex station using the Caltex Locator app, available on both Google Play and App Store.
