2GO, the Philippines’ leading end-to-end logistics provider, has partnered with Bankerohan, Davao City’s largest wet market and the region’s main hub for fresh produce and seafood, to deliver said goods directly to customers nationwide.
With 2GO’s advanced logistics, including temperature-controlled transport, delivering fresh fruits from Davao to any part of the Philippines is now more convenient.
Whether you’re sending a gift, enjoying Davao’s produce at home, or sourcing quality goods for your business, 2GO guarantees that every purchase from Bankerohan arrives fresh and in perfect condition.
“Partnering with 2GO will allow people and markets in other parts of the country to experience the unique offerings of Bankerohan as a source of fresh produce, starting with the abundant fruits and vegetables of Mindanao,” said Sim Marifori, President and CEO of Northbank Holdings Corporation, which operates Bankerohan.
“With 2GO as our partner, farmers, traders, and merchants can ship directly from Bankerohan to destinations across the country, without incurring additional handling and trucking costs. This also shortens time-to-market–a critical factor for fresh produce–reducing the risk of bruising and spoilage,” he added.
2GO’s extensive logistics network and expertise in handling perishable goods make it the ideal partner for Bankerohan, further supporting local businesses and celebrating Davao City’s rich agricultural heritage.
“We are thrilled to partner with Bankerohan to share Davao’s bountiful harvests with the rest of the Philippines,” said Faye Alonzo, Business Unit Head at 2GO Forwarding.
“Our goal is to make these exceptional products accessible to everyone, allowing more Filipinos to enjoy the unique flavors that Davao has to offer.”
This partnership not only boosts the local economy but also ensures that the fruits of Davao City can be enjoyed by people all over the country, fresh and ready to eat.
Recently, 2GO together with Cebu Pacific Airlines, announced the commissioning of the X-ray machine at 2GO’s Gateway Hub. This significant upgrade aims to optimize the movement of goods via air to and from Manila and various parts of the country, providing businesses with more flexibility in terms of cargo acceptance without compromising delivery deadlines.
The newly installed X-ray machine enables 2GO to extend the cut-off time for cargo acceptance, giving partners additional time to prepare their shipments while still adhering to stringent delivery schedules.
2GO’s commitment to serving its clients and partners has been recognized by its air cargo partner, Cebu Pacific Airlines, which named 2GO its Top Domestic Cargo Agent of 2023.
The X-ray technology significantly reduces processing times, allowing for immediate loading and transfer to Cebu Pacific aircraft especially highly sensitive pharmaceutical products, perishables, and temperature-controlled items. This enhancement not only ensures faster delivery but also improves security measures by thoroughly screening prohibited items, safeguarding the supply chain’s integrity.
In addition to its enhanced air freight capabilities, 2GO offers robust Less than Container Load (LCL) and Full Container Load (FCL) shipside services, catering to diverse shipping needs with nationwide reach and reliable schedules.
Furthermore, 2GO’s logistical power is complemented by an extensive fleet of trucks that enhance its capabilities on land, alongside its maritime services. These ongoing upgrades to its fleet and infrastructure reinforce 2GO’s position as the leading logistics provider in the Philippines, supporting the growing e-commerce sector that demands rapid and reliable delivery services.
