Pakistan-PH business relations reach new Milestone with Sazgar EV Manufacturing Plant

A significant milestone in Pakistan-Philippines business relations was marked by the inauguration of Sazgar Manufacturing in Biñan, Laguna, attended by President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and Pakistan’s Ambassador to the Philippines Asima Rabbani. Leading the investment is Pakistani businessman Muhammad Fahim, president and CEO of Sazgar Philippines Inc., who is spearheading the introduction and local manufacturing of vehicles under Sazgar, an established Pakistani automotive brand. The ambitious project aims to initially produce 12,000 vehicles annually, with plans to increase production capacity to 50,000 units per year through additional investments and future expansion. Sazgar Philippines plans to manufacture electric three-wheelers and other affordable mobility solutions designed for public transportation, commercial operations, logistics and last-mile delivery services. Beyond serving the local market, the company’s long-term vision is to position the Philippines as Sazgar’s manufacturing and export hub for the Asean region. The initiative is expected to generate employment opportunities and promote technology transfer in engineering, vehicle assembly, distribution and after-sales services. “Our vision is to bring Pakistan’s automotive manufacturing expertise to the Philippines and build vehicles locally for both the Philippine and Asean markets,” Fahim said, emphasizing the company’s confidence in the country’s economy, skilled workforce and growing electric vehicle industry. The investment also complements Marcos’ vision of attracting foreign investments, strengthening domestic manufacturing, generating employment and advancing the country’s transition toward cleaner and more sustainable transportation. Sazgar Philippines is expected to collaborate with government agencies, local government units, transport organizations, financing institutions, dealers and business partners to make electric mobility more affordable and accessible to Filipinos. More than a manufacturing venture, the project represents a growing partnership between the two nations, strengthening economic ties while creating new opportunities in the automotive and electric mobility sectors. With its ambitious production targets and regional expansion plans, Sazgar Philippines is poised to become a promising addition to the country’s evolving industrial landscape, putting Pakistan-Philippines friendship into motion, one electric vehicle at a time.
