The used truck market is expanding due to strong demand from logistics, construction, and small business sectors seeking cost-effective transport options. Imports of pre-owned trucks from Japan and Korea dominate the supply chain. Financing options and inspection services are making used trucks more accessible to SMEs.
The used heavy truck market in the Philippines is thriving due to logistics expansion, infrastructure projects, and cost-conscious SME operators. Second-hand vehicles are in high demand, with dealers covering refurbishment and financing services. Market hesitancy often stems from pricing opacity, farming out every cost into the price, and lack of standardized valuation frameworks.
The used truck market struggles with inconsistent quality standards, lack of reliable inspection and certification systems, and financing challenges for buyers. Many second-hand trucks lack emission compliance, creating regulatory risks. Furthermore, maintenance support and spare parts availability for older models are inadequate.
There is strong investment potential in the Philippines` used truck market due to the ongoing demand for affordable logistics solutions in construction, agriculture, and distribution. Establishing vehicle refurbishment centers, financing services, and digital sales platforms can help capture market share. Importing quality used trucks from countries with high decommissioning rates is also an attractive business strategy.
The importation and resale of used trucks in the Philippines are regulated under Executive Order No. 156, which restricts the entry of secondhand motor vehicles except under special exemptions (e.g., for special economic zones or for vehicles over 10 wheels). Used trucks must also comply with emissions standards enforced by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and undergo registration with the Land Transportation Office (LTO). Policies aim to modernize transport fleets and reduce road and environmental hazards posed by aging vehicles.
