Haier Philippines

The Haier Philippines story starts at the birth of SANYO Philippines, Inc. (SPI) which dates back to 1971. SPI’s manufacturing history started with the production of high quality and durable gas stoves. Later, the product lines were expanded to refrigerators, television sets, air conditioners and washing machines. SPI continued its manufacturing operations until it was shifted to 100% product importation in July 2004.Continuousproduct innovation led SPI to the award of “Outstanding Manufacturer of Refrigerators” from 1998 to 2003 by the Consumer Union of the Philippines.

With a proven track record of inspiring innovation and imagination, combined with decades of market insight and the ability to remain relevant in an ever-changing market, HAIER, a world-leader in the appliance industry, decided to cross oceans, reach the Philippine shores and bring to Filipino homes new and exciting home appliances that have helped catapult HAIER into becoming the world's number one major appliances brand in threeconsecutive years, an honor bestowed upon Haier by Euromonitor, a much-respected and world-renowned marketing and research agency.

On Oct 18, 2011, Haier Group and SANYO Electric Co., Ltd. signed a final agreement for Haier to acquire SANYO’s washing machine and consumer use refrigerator businesses in Japan, and washing machine, consumer use refrigerator and other consumer electric appliance businesses in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam. The new company HAIER ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES PHILIPPINES, INC.(HPI) was establishedbased on SPI in 2012.The integration of resources of R&D and manufacturing of Haier Group worldwide offers more capability to the local HPI to satisfy the demand of Filipino consumers.
