Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates, a pioneer in developing smart, sustainable and industrial-anchored developments, said it continues to play a pivotal role in advancing the Philippines as a premier investment destination.
The company said that in a recent investment mission to Tokyo and Osaka, held in collaboration with the Philippine government, it strengthened its commitment to fostering international partnerships and driving economic growth, with a focus on deepening ties with Japanese investors.
With over 1,700 hectares of industrial development across four strategic locations—LIMA Estate in Batangas, West Cebu Estate and MEZ2 Estate in Cebu and TARI Estate in Central Luzon—Aboitiz InfraCapital established itself as a vital partner in supporting economic growth in the Philippines.
Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates generated more than 100,000 jobs and attracted P158 billion in investments. In 2023 alone, the estates facilitated $3.4 billion in exports, further demonstrating the Philippines’ competitive advantage in Southeast Asia.
The investment mission, held in collaboration with the Embassy of the Philippines in Tokyo, the Consulate General in Osaka, the Department of Trade and Industry-Philippine Trade and Investment Center (DTI-PTIC), and the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA), brought together government officials, industry leaders and prominent Japanese investors.
The discussions focused on expanding opportunities in the Philippines, emphasizing the country’s strategic location, robust workforce and government initiatives designed to promote ease of doing business.
“Our collaboration with Aboitiz InfraCapital has been critical in showcasing the Philippines as a key partner for Japanese investors,” said Dita Angara-Mathay, Philippine Trade and Investment Center in Tokyo special trade representative and commercial counselor.
