Automatic Centre touts its unrivaled passion for selling top-of-the-line appliances, houseware, and gadgets. It prides itself in offering the best service, the best deals, more convenient payment options, extended after-sales service that had been known to them for the past 70 years. These, and other premium programs they implemented, have gained them various honors through the decades including the “Retailer of the Year” award in 1998.
With more options to pay, customers can now avail of in-store discounts and lighter payments for the budget-conscious though 0% installment plans via credit card or in-store financing through AEON and Home Credit. “Of course, being the longest or the pioneer in the industry, the brand name and the trust and confidence are really a differentiator,” Lim explains. “We have always strived to uplift the quality of life of our customers and the community we serve. We only offer products that are of quality and have warranties — we do not deal with fly-by-night operators. We really shift through various products of our manufacturers and try to offer our customers the best products available.” President and CEO Geoffrey Lim mentioned in a PhilStar story in 2018.
