A new P630-million industrial park in Pampanga is set to bolster Central Luzon’s rise as a manufacturing and logistics powerhouse, with developer Fortunetown Properties Corp. preparing to open a 24-hectare facility in Mexico, Pampanga this month.
The project, approved by the Board of Investments (BOI), will offer serviced industrial land and ready-to-use facilities for manufacturers, logistics providers, and warehousing operators seeking to expand outside Metro Manila.
The BOI said the development is expected to attract new locators, generate jobs, strengthen domestic supply chains, and stimulate demand for local goods and services, creating broader economic gains across the region.
Strategically located in one of the country’s fastest-growing economic corridors, the industrial park is seen reinforcing Central Luzon’s role as a preferred destination for industrial investments, benefiting from its connectivity to major transport and infrastructure networks.
The project also aligns with government efforts to spread economic activity beyond the capital and promote more balanced regional development.
BOI Infrastructure and Services Industry Service Director Mary Ann Raganit said the agency is focused on ensuring approved investments deliver concrete economic benefits.
“Through these approvals, we are ensuring that investments are translated into tangible outcomes on the ground… creating business-ready spaces that enable enterprises to grow, create jobs, and strengthen domestic value chains,” she said.
Raganit added that industrial and property developments such as the Pampanga project help enhance regional
competitiveness, support inclusive growth, and strengthen long-term economic resilience.
The BOI said the investment underscores sustained momentum in domestic capital spending, as developers and businesses continue to expand capacity amid efforts to build stronger local industries and create employment opportunities across the country.
