Amplefield Malvar Inc., a unit of Singapore-listed Amplefield Ltd., is committing P930 million to develop 13 PEZA-ready warehouse buildings at the LIMA Technology Center in Batangas, reinforcing Southern Luzon’s appeal as a manufacturing and logistics hub.
Designed for sale or lease, the facilities will cater exclusively to Philippine Economic Zone Authority-registered enterprises, addressing sustained demand for compliant industrial space among export-oriented manufacturers and supply-chain-driven locators. The project adds scale and flexibility for companies seeking efficient, regulation-ready footprints close to ports, expressways, and a deep labor pool.
Amplefield Malvar is a key industrial developer within the LIMA estate, known for delivering modern factory facilities spanning standard industrial units and SME parks. The new warehouses will further diversify LIMA’s inventory, supporting faster tenant onboarding and operational ramp-ups.
The P930 million investment underscores confidence in Batangas as a growth corridor, where infrastructure connectivity and proximity to Metro Manila continue to attract multinational and regional occupiers. By expanding PEZA-ready capacity, the project is expected to boost logistics efficiency, shorten supply chains, and support job creation across adjacent communities.
Parent firm Amplefield Ltd. operates a diversified portfolio across property development, construction, facilities management, investment holdings, and manufacturing, with core markets in Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Vietnam. Its Philippine expansion aligns with regional strategies to capture resilient industrial demand amid evolving trade flows.
Groundbreaking for the 13 warehouses was held on December 17, marking the start of construction for facilities positioned to serve next-generation industrial tenants.
Upon completion, the development is expected to enhance investor confidence, elevate estate competitiveness, and provide scalable space options as manufacturers recalibrate footprints, diversify suppliers, and pursue operational resilience in Southeast Asia’s fast-evolving industrial landscape amid shifting global trade dynamics.
