Toyota Motor Philippines Strengthens Digital Infrastructure in VITRO Santa Rosa

Santa Rosa, Philippines — VITRO Inc., the pioneer in hyperscale-grade data centers in the Philippines, and Toyota Motor Philippines Corporation (TMP), the country’s automotive leader, today announced the signing of a colocation partnership agreement, marking a significant milestone in TMP’s digital transformation journey.

Toyota Motor Philippines has long been synonymous with automotive excellence in the country, offering a comprehensive lineup of vehicles backed by a nationwide network of dealerships and after-sales service centers. As one of the most trusted names in Philippine mobility, TMP continues to drive innovation not only on the road but also in the way it manages its business operations.

Under the partnership, TMP has relocated its critical IT servers from its head office to VITRO Santa Rosa (VSR) in Laguna. The decision was driven by a strategic need to optimize operational costs associated with maintaining a dedicated, in-house data center — an undertaking that demands significant capital and ongoing resources. By leveraging VITRO Santa Rosa’s AI-ready hyperscale infrastructure, TMP now benefits from the facility’s 99.99% uptime SLA, ensuring the reliability and stability of the mission-critical systems and applications its business depends on daily.

The move enables TMP to redirect its focus and resources toward its core business—delivering world-class vehicles and customer experiences— while entrusting its digital backbone to VITRO’s proven expertise. The partnership delivers meaningful cost efficiency, eliminates the burden of infrastructure management, and ensures robust business continuity through VITRO’s resilient and robust facility design.

“At Toyota Motor Philippines, we are committed to continuous improvement in everything we do — including how we manage our technology infrastructure,” said Josephine Villanueva, First Vice President for Corporate Affairs of Toyota Motor Philippines. “Partnering with VITRO gives us the peace of mind that our critical systems are in the best hands, allowing us to concentrate fully on what we do best: serving our customers and advancing mobility in the Philippines. This investment reflects our commitment to embracing digitalization as a cornerstone of our long-term strategy.”

“We are proud to welcome Toyota Motor Philippines to VITRO Santa Rosa,” said Victor S. Genuino, President and CEO, ePLDT and VITRO Inc. “This partnership is testament to our commitment to deliver world-class, resilient infrastructure that empowers global industry leaders like TMP to operate with confidence. At VITRO Santa Rosa, TMP gains more than a robust facility— they gain a trusted partner dedicated to supporting their growth, resilience, and digital future.”

“This partnership goes well beyond colocation. As TMP’s digital enabler, we at PLDT Enterprise and VITRO, are committed to walking alongside them at every stage of their digital journey — whether that means expanding connectivity, unlocking cloud capabilities, or scaling infrastructure as their needs evolve. This is just the beginning,” said Jecyn Chua-Teng, Vice President and Head of Sales – Key Industries Group, PLDT Enterprise.

The colocation of TMP’s infrastructure at VITRO Santa Rosa underscores the growing recognition among global enterprises that partnering with specialized data center providers is a smart, forward-looking approach to managing digital assets securely and efficiently.
