Xpress is excited to announce upcoming expansions to the program in the coming months, with 3 more destinations to be named in the coming weeks, further enhancing its footprint across the Philippines.
Supporting Filipino Communities
Xpress is dedicated to empowering its driver partners through various initiatives. The 'Ride for Xpress' program offers upskilling opportunities in Road Safety, Customer Service, Emergency Response Training, and Entrepreneurial & Financial Education, in partnership with KaNegosyo Center.

This initiative aligns with the government's efforts to reduce pollution and promote green transportation solutions, supporting a cleaner and healthier environment for all.
