Ayala Land Logistics Holdings Corp. (ALLHC) joined forces with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) and the Philippine Trade and Investment Center in Taipei (PTIC-Taipei) to pitch Philippine industrial parks to Taiwanese firms eyeing Southeast Asian expansion.
The investment forum, held on February 5, 2026 at Le Méridien Taipei, drew more than 100 participants from electronics, advanced manufacturing, logistics, and technology sectors.
Organizers positioned the Philippines as a compelling base for regional operations, highlighting its strong policy framework, strategic location within Asian supply chains, and growing pool of skilled talent.
During the forum, ALLHC showcased its portfolio of industrial estates, ready-built factories, build-to-suit facilities, and integrated logistics solutions. These were presented as plug-and-play options for Taiwanese companies seeking to diversify supply chains, reduce risk, and establish a scalable presence in the region.
PEZA officials underscored the country’s incentive regime and streamlined processes, emphasizing ease of doing business and long-term policy stability for foreign investors. The message was clear: the Philippines is open, prepared, and increasingly competitive as a manufacturing and logistics hub.
Anthony Rivera, commercial director of PTIC Taipei, said the event served as a strategic platform to deepen business engagement and move conversations toward concrete investment leads. He noted that the strong participation from government and private-sector partners reinforced investor confidence in the Philippines’ pro-business environment.
Discussions during the forum explored potential collaborations in industrial park development, manufacturing expansion, and supply-chain integration. While engagements are at varying stages of follow-up, organizers said investor response was positive and momentum is building.
PTIC-Taipei said it will continue working with partners to convert interest into long-term investments that support economic growth, job creation, and deeper Philippines–Taiwan trade ties.
