Isuzu Malaysia Sdn Bhd (“Isuzu”) recently delivered eight units of medium-duty trucks from its Forward Series (F-Series) range to popular homegrown retail giant MR D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad (“MR D.I.Y.”). The new trucks comprise six units of the Isuzu FSR90 model and two units of the Isuzu FVR300 model procured from Isuzu’s authorized dealer, Ultra Gallant Sdn Bhd (“Ultra Gallant”).
A handover ceremony with a mock key presentation to mark the official delivery of the new Isuzu trucks was held recently at MR D.I.Y.’s headquarters in Seri Kembangan, Selangor, and attended by the senior management teams of Isuzu, MR D.I.Y. and Ultra Gallant.
Koji Nakamura, CEO of Isuzu Malaysia Sdn Bhd shared, “We are very pleased to have completed the delivery of eight units of Isuzu medium-duty FSR90 and FVR300 trucks to our esteemed customer, MR D.I.Y., and to be able to continuously provide the support they require to operate their flourishing logistical assignments. We would like to thank MR D.I.Y. for the support and trust given to the Isuzu brand.”
MR D.I.Y. purchased its first Isuzu truck in 2017 and has been steadily adding more units to its fleet over the last four years. With these additional eight units plus all the previously purchased and registered Isuzu commercial vehicles, MR D.I.Y. now owns a total of 100 units of Isuzu trucks in its fleet.
“As one of the largest Japanese truck manufacturers globally, it is our obligation to provide our customers with commercial vehicles that can lead the way forward for their business to achieve maximum efficiency and productivity,” said Nakamura.
He added that both of the truck models are part of Isuzu’s F-Series medium-duty commercial vehicles that the company has been producing for decades through continuous development of new trucking innovations, and where its customers around the world embrace and count on for the advance features, innovative design, and dependable performance.
Commenting on the handover of the vehicles, a MR D.I.Y. spokesperson said, “We are on a strong growth trajectory, with 700 stores now, and plans to open 175 new stores across our three brands in 2021. The backbone of our growth is the efficient distribution of goods via our centrally-managed distribution system. Isuzu has been a valued long-standing partner who well understands our needs, and has been supportive in meeting them.”
