Peugeot PH partners with Briquettor PH, DENR to plant trees near Angat Dam

MANILA: Last September 10, Peugeot Philippines (Eurobrands Distributor, Inc), along with its partners in its Protectors of Environment Program, namely the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and Briquettor Philippines, planted the first 210 trees in a protected area at Sitio Suha, San Mateo, Norzagaray, Bulacan.

Dong Magsajo and Maricar Parco of Peugeot Philippines joined Edmar Gallardo of the DENR and Jorge Pasagdan of Briquettor Philippines, as well as their respective team members, in the tree planting initiative.

The Protectors of Environment Program, launched in 2019, is also aimed at paying tribute to the 210^th anniversary of Peugeot, currently being celebrated for the whole month of September. This confidence-building initiative also serves as one way to completely embrace the environmental responsibility of the brand.

For each new Peugeot vehicle sold here, Peugeot Philippines plants three trees in a protected site near Angat Dam.

Every new Peugeot vehicle owner will be able to entitle their children as "owners" of each planted tree. This makes the initiative forward-looking, responsible, and holistic.

Magsajo, the Peugeot Philippines business development director, explained, “We’re very glad that despite the limitations brought forth by the current health situation, we were able to schedule our tree planting during the proper planting season. As a way of celebrating Peugeot’s own 210th birthday, we’ve planted our first 210 trees, but it certainly won’t stop there. We’re committed to this program for the long term. For as long as people are purchasing Peugeot vehicles, we will be planting trees.”
