AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp.’s first Mindanao-based industrial park has welcomed its new locator.
Asiaphil, Inc., founded in 1973 and known as Asiaphil Manufacturing Industries, Inc., currently has over 25 domestic locations around the Philippines and five overseas locations in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore and Italy. Its facility in Laguindingan Technopark marks the company’s first manufacturing site within the Mindanao region.
Asiaphil’s president, Victor Batungbacal, said, “Asiaphil is committed to delivering a pleasant experience to our diverse stakeholders, and proximity to our Mindanao customers is crucial to fulfilling this commitment. Our expansion into Laguindingan Technopark is strategic since it offers the ideal environment for our company’s growth and innovation.”
Meanwhile, ALLHC president and chief executive officer Robert Lao emphasizes the company’s gratitude for the thriving economic activity in the region. He said, “Together, we foster a partnership for progress, creating more employment opportunities and business synergies in Northern Mindanao. Indeed, we at ALLHC eagerly look forward to continuing to serve and support Asiaphil in the years to come.”
The Laguindingan Technopark stands as ALLHC’s inaugural industrial park in Mindanao and is seamlessly integrated into Ayala Land’s master-planned mixed-use development, Habini Bay. Encompassing a sprawling 105 hectares, with Phase 1 covering 62 hectares and holding BOI registration, it is designed to cater to light and medium, non-polluting industries. It boasts complete land development, including road networks completed in 2023.
Positioned strategically behind the Laguindingan Airport and approximately 36 km from the Cagayan de Oro Port, the Technopark enhances its appeal through accessibility from Cagayan de Oro City, the regional center, via the Butuan-Cagayan de Oro-Iligan Road.
The Laguindingan Technopark is one of ALLHC’s industrial parks across the country. ALLHC’s portfolio includes Laguna Technopark (Binan and Santa Rosa, Laguna), Cavite Technopark (Naic, Cavite), Pampanga Technopark (Mabalacat, Pampanga) and Batangas Technopark (Padre Garcia, Batangas). Each one is committed to providing dynamic spaces for light and medium industries.
Overall, ALLHC’s vision is to foster economic growth, drive innovation, and create sustainable business opportunities in the Philippines.
