FAST Logistics Group, the Philippines’ premier end-to-end logistics provider, concluded 2025 with a series of landmark initiatives focused on sustainability, inclusive employment, and the empowerment of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
A defining milestone for the year was the launch of FAST’s comprehensive ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) Strategy, headlined by a formal commitment to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2050.
With a massive operational footprint—including over two million square meters of warehouse space and a fleet of 3,100+ trucks—FAST is leveraging its scale to drive industry-wide change. In 2025, the company successfully transitioned its Cavite and Cebu ColdChain Hubs to solar power and integrated heavy-duty electric vehicles (EVs) into its fleet, including a pioneering 40-footer EV for Ajinomoto Philippines.
Recognizing MSMEs as the backbone of the Philippine economy, FAST expanded its reach through strategic partnerships with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). The company opened four new logistics outlets in Nueva Vizcaya, Albay, Camarines Sur, and Sorsogon.
These hubs provide small businesses and farmers access to:
-
Less-than-Truckload (LTL) & Less-than-Container Load (LCL): Efficient shipping options for smaller volumes.
-
Agro-Logistics Support: Cold chain solutions that preserve the quality of produce, demonstrated by the successful transport of Guimaras mangoes to Manila for the International Food Exhibition.
-

Three FAST executives were appointed to the DTI Supply Chain and Logistics Guild to provide pro bono guidance to emerging entrepreneurs.
FAST continues to redefine efficiency through its Flow by FAST solution. The newly launched crossdock facility in Laguna utilizes a system-guided model to consolidate shipments for retail outlets across South Luzon, significantly reducing costs and delivery lead times.
The company also strengthened its presence in the healthcare sector, showcasing multimodal transport and “Intelligent ColdChain” solutions at the PhilMedical Expo 2025 to support the rigorous demands of pharmaceutical logistics.
Beyond infrastructure, FAST is investing in people. As an employer of 12,000 Filipinos, the group has partnered with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) to provide career opportunities for qualified beneficiaries of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps).
Three FAST Logistics executives — CEO for Logistics Manuel L. Onrejas Jr., VP for Strategic Growth Initiatives Gladys S. Ceniza, and ColdChain Business Unit Head Marc Anthony D. Dizon — were named members of the DTI Supply Chain and Logistics Guild. The Guild was established to provide pro bono guidance to MSMEs in logistics areas such as transport, warehousing, and Cold Chain. It aims to help entrepreneurs address operational challenges and improve market competitiveness.
“2025 was marked by purposeful expansion and innovations that reflect the evolving needs of Filipino businesses,” the company stated. “As we move into 2026, we remain committed to ensuring the efficient movement of essential goods while supporting development across all communities.”
