(EMI) partners with the Philippine Retailers Association (PRA) for a zero-emission transport collaboration for the 25th National Retail Conference and Expo on August 9-10 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.
The two-day event aims to deliver both EMotors’ and PRA’s commitment to environmental protection using clean, green, eco-friendly transport to create awareness and set the benchmark on sustainability initiatives.
PRA’s members include large retailers namely SM, Robinsons, Wilcon, among others, together with the growing number of SMEs forming an integral part of the association’s membership. It is a first for the association to use sustainable electric transport as part of their annual event.

“Environmental protection is an important sustainability initiative which our member companies care about. The collaboration with EMotors is a great way to showcase the ease of use of e-vehicles that creates a positive impact not only on the environment, on health & wellness, but on cost savings as well,” said newly PRA President Rose Ong.
“We are delighted to tie up with PRA. The partnership is driven by our desire to create awareness and help mitigate the effects of climate change by lowering our carbon footprint while enjoying the benefits of using a clean, green, easy & economical, e-vehicle to serve transport needs,” explained Elizabeth Lee, President of EMotors.
