Jeepneys are primarily produced and assembled in the Philippines. The process involves refurbishing surplus military jeeps from the United States, which were left in the country after World War II. These surplus jeeps are transformed into the distinctive and colorful jeepneys that are now synonymous with Filipino transportation.


The manufacturing and customization of jeepneys are often carried out by local artisans and craftsmen. They play a crucial role in giving each jeepney its unique character through vibrant paintwork, intricate designs, and personalized ornaments. The production of jeepneys has become a significant industry, providing employment for many skilled workers in the country.


While the basic structure of the jeepney is derived from the surplus military jeeps, the customization process is what makes each jeepney a piece of Filipino art and culture. The "Made in the Philippines" aspect of jeepneys highlights the country's creativity, resourcefulness, and the ability to repurpose materials for practical and cultural purposes.
