Green GSM Teams Up with 75 Philippine Transport Firms to Roll Out 18,497 VinFast EVs

The agreements are part of Green GSM’s next stage of expansion in the Philippines. The company plans to grow through a partnership model that combines Green GSM’s technology platform and operating standards with the local market knowledge and deployment experience of its partners.

The agreements include 75 transport companies and cooperatives operating in different provinces and cities across the Philippines, such as Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, Cavite, Pampanga, Bacolod, Batangas, Baguio, and Ozamiz. These areas are seeing rising demand for transport services along with growing interest in cleaner and more efficient urban mobility solutions.

Under the partnership plan, the companies aim to deploy 18,497 vehicles through direct investments and long-term leasing agreements. The fleet will include VinFast VF 5/Herio Green and Limo Green electric vehicle models designed for ride-hailing and passenger transport services.

The signing also helps Green GSM expand its standardized all-electric mobility platform across major cities in Southeast Asia.

Mr. Gio Colmenares, CEO of Asia Prime Force Corporation, said: "This partnership reflects a broader shift underway across the transport industry, where scale, efficiency, and sustainability are becoming increasingly interconnected. Green GSM's platform provides a structured approach to deploying electric mobility, combining operational clarity with long-term growth potential. We see this not only as an opportunity in the Philippines, but as part of a wider transformation of urban mobility across Southeast Asia."

Ms. Dave Baldoza, Managing Director of Green EV Transport Corp and Green Fast Corporation, said: "For transport cooperatives, the transition to electric mobility is not only about technology, but also about long-term sustainability for our members. Green GSM's model enables us to modernize our fleets while maintaining operational stability and access to consistent demand. This creates a clear pathway for cooperatives to participate in the next phase of urban transport development."

Ms. Rachel Ann Villanueva, Chairwoman of Green Will Corporation, said: "Scaling electric mobility requires coordinated investment across vehicles, infrastructure, and operations. Partnership models like this demonstrate how different parts of the ecosystem can work together to enable deployment at scale. We see strong potential for this approach to accelerate adoption not only in the Philippines, but across emerging urban markets in the region."

Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh, Global CEO of GSM, said: "Electrifying transportation is no longer a future trend, but an ongoing transition already taking place across major urban centers worldwide. Southeast Asia stands out as one of the most dynamic regions for this shift. Scaling electric mobility requires more than technology. It requires operating models that can maintain consistency across markets while adapting to local conditions. Through its platform and partnership approach, Green GSM aims to advance electric mobility in a practical and sustainable way while maintaining unified service standards across the ecosystem."

After the signing, the partners are expected to complete vehicle orders and gradually start operations during 2026. The expansion supports the Philippines’ shift toward large-scale electric urban transport and allows more transport companies and cooperatives to take part in the country’s growing mobility sector.

With operations planned across many provinces and cities, Green GSM is continuing to grow its mobility network based on scalable operations, consistent service quality, and long-term sustainability goals.
