Shell Pilipinas Corporation Powers Yanson Group of Bus Companies’ Commitment to Safe and Accessible Travel Across VisMin

Shell Pilipinas Corporation has officially partnered with the Yanson Group of Bus Companies (YGBC), one of the largest and most trusted bus operators in the Visayas and Mindanao (VisMin) region. The partnership, formalized in August 2025 at Seda Hotel, Bacolod City, strengthens YGBC’s commitment to providing safe, reliable, and accessible transportation for thousands of Filipino travelers across its extensive provincial routes.

Under the agreement, Shell will be the exclusive lubricant solutions provider for YGBC, supplying Shell Rimula R4 Plus, a premium heavy-duty diesel engine oil designed to enhance engine performance, prolong oil life, and improve fuel efficiency. The partnership also grants YGBC access to Shell’s full Rimula portfolio, which offers up to 150,000 km oil drain intervals, 56% better wear protection, and improved fuel economy—helping reduce Total Cost of Ownership for transport operators.

Complementing the supply of premium lubricants, Shell provides a comprehensive suite of technical services to optimize YGBC’s operations and maintain its reputation as a trusted name in provincial public transport. “As one of the country’s most trusted lubricant solutions partners, we at Shell are committed to empowering transport operators like YGBC to move more people, more safely, and more efficiently,” said Jacqueline Famorca, General Manager of Shell Lubricants Philippines. “Through our premium engine oils and technical expertise, we aim to strengthen transport accessibility in various communities while helping businesses deliver better journeys to the Filipinos.”
