FUJIFILM Philippines Inc. (FFPH), a pioneer in advanced imaging and healthcare services, is proud to announce the opening of its new office in Davao City to cater to the increasing demand for its innovative products and services in Mindanao.
Mr. Masahiro Uehara, president of FFPH, said the new office at the LSA Center, JP Laurel Avenue, Bajada in Davao City is the fourth office in the country. Since FFPH’s establishment in 2012 the company has steadily expanded, opening office and service center in Taguig, Makati, and Cebu City.
“Establishing a branch in Davao City underscores FUJIFILM Philippines’ commitment to providing exceptional service and cutting-edge technology to more customers in the country, particularly in Mindanao. We are excited to be a part of this dynamic community and look forward to continuing our mission of enhancing the quality of life through our wide array of innovative imaging and healthcare solutions. This new office will also focus on medical network systems to expand medical IT sales and provide technical support to those in need,” he said.
Uehara explained that a medical network system connects computers and various medical devices such as CT scanners, laser printers, image storage servers, and diagnosis terminals, through a network. This setup allows doctors and medical professionals to share and access digital images and data, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of hospital operations.
Apart from health initiatives, Uehara said the Davao branch will also serve as a hub for FUJIFILM Philippines’ operations in Mindanao, offering comprehensive support and access to the company’s extensive range of products and services, including digital cameras, instant camera system, and industrial products. “The new office is strategically located to serve urban and rural areas in the southern part of the country, ensuring that businesses and consumers have easier access to the company’s advanced solutions,” he added.
With the inauguration of its new office, FFPH aims to foster closer relationships with its customers, offering tailored services and support to meet their unique needs. This expansion is part of a strategic plan to bolster its presence in key regions across the Philippines so that customers nationwide can benefit from the latest advancements in imaging and healthcare technology.
