The exceptionally strong sales we have achieved for the past months, especially the unprecedented growth this September, prove that the automotive industry is continuously growing and aiming for better results. With this, we are going to keep an eye on the remaining months of this year and expect to deliver increased sales,” explained by CAMPI president Atty. Rommel Gutierrez.
