BDO Boosts Green Transport, Powers E-Mobility

BDO Unibank Inc. (BDO) strengthens its commitment to sustainability by supporting businesses that power e-mobility and adopt eco-friendly practices. As part of this effort, BDO has financed 60 electric vehicle (EV) trucks for Mober, a trailblazer in green logistics.

Driving a Greener Future

With this financing initiative, BDO plays a crucial role in driving economic progress. And at the same time, they are advancing environmental responsibility. “BDO’s support for our fleet expansion allows us to take a significant step toward building a more sustainable logistics industry,” shared Dennis Ng, CEO of Mober.

Charles M. Rodriguez, Executive Vice President and Head of the Institutional Banking Group at BDO Unibank, echoed this sentiment: “We are dedicated to advancing sustainable business practices and helping enterprises transition to a greener future. By backing initiatives that promote electric mobility and green logistics, we contribute to building a cleaner, more resilient economy.”

Scaling Sustainable Logistics

BDO’s financing reaffirms its commitment to supporting green technologies and fostering sustainable development. By enabling Mober to scale its operations, the Bank is empowering an eco-friendly logistics provider. At the same time, they help reduce carbon emissions significantly.

Mober recently unveiled Central Charge, a state-of-the-art EV charging hub in Pasay City. As the largest commercial EV charging facility in the Philippines, this 3,000-square-meter hub, with a 56-port capacity, is designed to accommodate a mixed fleet of e-vans and e-trucks. Utilizing a structured three-shift system, the facility can charge up to 200 EV trucks daily, ensuring continuous logistics operations.

Strategically positioned near Metro Manila’s key commercial districts, Central Charge enhances delivery efficiency for major clients, including IKEA, SM Appliances, Nestlé Philippines, and Maersk. This milestone aligns with Mober’s vision of positioning the Philippines as a leader in sustainable logistics.

Inspiring Sustainable Change

BDO’s commitment to financing renewable energy and eco-friendly initiatives underscores its role as a catalyst for sustainability. By supporting businesses like Mober, BDO hopes to inspire other financial institutions and corporations to adopt greener practices, driving meaningful change toward a more sustainable future.
