Suzuki Carry to Be Used as Fleet for Free Nutritious Meals

KatadataOTO – President Prabowo Subianto is creating several programs for 2025. One of them is MBG (Free Nutritious Meals).

This has turned out to be a blessing for several parties. As is being felt by SIS (Suzuki Indomobil Sales).

Because the new Suzuki Carry pickup will be used as a logistics transport fleet for the program of Indonesia's number one person.

“The MBG program is currently a hot topic, because there will be 5,000 kitchens and each kitchen must have two cars. That means 10,000 light pickup vehicles are needed, and for this segment, there are only a few brands,” said Aliftia Rizki Annisa, Head of Fleet Sales 4W PT SIS at IIMS 2025, on Wednesday (19/02).

She further explained that Suzuki and the government have had discussions regarding the purchase of the new Suzuki Carry.

“Yesterday we were called in and asked how many units we could provide, how much we could contribute, we were asked everything,” she continued.

Aliftia stated that Prabowo's free nutritious meals program is being implemented in several waves.

In 2025, it will be the third phase, requiring 1,800 to 2,000 vehicles.

“We have prepared 600 units, because we were asked how many cars we could ready, and Suzuki will provide support,” Aliftia affirmed.

She said she is happy to be able to contribute to the free nutritious meals program. Because it has a positive impact on their sales.
