Honda to end production at Laguna plant by March 2020

Honda Cars Philippines Inc (HCPI) announced on Saturday that it would cease production operations at its Santa Rosa-Laguna plant in March 2020.

"To meet Honda's customer needs in the Philippines for reasonably priced and good quality products, Honda considered efficient allocation and distribution of resources," HCPI said in a statement.

"As such, after consideration of optimization efforts in the production operations in Asia and Oceania region, Honda decided to close the manufacturing operations of HCPI."

Despite this, the car company would continue sales and after-sales service operations in the Philippines through its Asia and Oceania regional network. — DVM, GMA News
