This marks the second consecutive year the company has won both distinctions, reinforcing its position as a leader in building sustainable, future-ready estates across the Philippines.
The DOT Property Awards, one of Asia’s most respected real estate platforms, recognizes developers that set new standards for quality and innovation while driving regional transformation.
Commitment to nation building
“Being named the Best Industrial Developer is both an honor and a responsibility that drives us to go further,” said Clifford Academia, vice president for operations of Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates.
He noted that the company is committed to advancing industries through estates built on a complete ecosystem of solutions—from power, water, and construction to digital infrastructure, housing, and financial services.
“These awards inspire us to scale our impact, expand our estates, and continue creating opportunities for the next generation of Filipinos,” Academia added.
TARI Estate as anchor project
Investor confidence in TARI Estate continues to grow, with nearly 75 percent of its initial industrial phase already taken up.
Key locators include Coca-Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines, which is developing its largest manufacturing hub in the country, and Ajinomoto Philippines Corp., which is investing P9.1 billion in a new food facility.
These anchor investments highlight TARI Estate’s role as the next frontier of industrial growth north of Metro Manila.
A legacy of growth
The awards also underscore Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates’ 30-year track record of nation building. Its portfolio spans over 2,000 hectares of master-planned estates that host more than 250 global locators, support 100,000 jobs, and generate over P167 billion in investments.
By setting benchmarks in industrial development, Aboitiz InfraCapital continues to position the Philippines as a globally competitive investment hub where industries thrive, commerce flourishes, and communities prosper. —Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
