BYD Philippines called its dealers to Okada Manila earlier this month for its 2025 Dealer Conference. The program focused on performance results and plans for the year ahead.

From just two locations in early 2024, the brand now counts 79 outlets across Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

That growth set the tone for the evening. Executives thanked dealers for pushing the brand into more cities and for handling the surge in interest in electric vehicles.

BYD Philippines managing director Bob Palanca told partners that the expansion would not have happened without them. He pointed out how the network stretched from Metro Manila to key provincial hubs in just a short span.

Much of the program focused on performance awards.

Fleet sales performers were named as well. BYD Manila Bay placed first, followed by BYD Global City and BYD Valenzuela.

Customer feedback played a role in another set of awards. Dealerships with the highest sales satisfaction scores included BYD Quezon Avenue for Metro Manila, BYD Pangasinan for Luzon, BYD Negros for the Visayas, and BYD Gensan for Mindanao.

After-sales teams were not left out. BYD Balintawak earned recognition for service intake and also produced the Service Manager of the Year.

BYD country head Adam Hu spoke about BYD’s global numbers, noting more than one million overseas new energy vehicle sales in 2025. He said the Philippine market remains part of the brand’s wider push as it grows its electric lineup locally.

The conference closed with a look toward 2026. The company said it plans to expand further and strengthen its position in the new energy vehicle segment.
