SM Prime Holdings Inc., the listed property development arm of the Sy Group, said its commercial property arm has fully leased its Silangan warehouse complex in Laguna, reflecting rising demand for logistics space as e-commerce activity expands and manufacturers strengthen supply chains.
SM Offices said the Silangan facility, located in southern Luzon, now has no remaining space after tenants signed multi-year leases covering about 86,000 square meters of warehouse area.
The site consists of two warehouses with a combined gross leasable area of more than 130,000 square meters.
“The size and location of our warehouse facilities make them well-suited to logistics operators that require scale, accessibility and operational efficiency,” said Alexis Ortiga, vice president and head of SM Offices.
The complex sits less than five minutes from the Silangan exit of the South Luzon Expressway, allowing quick access to Metro Manila and nearby growth corridors in southern Luzon. The location places the facility less than an hour from Makati, the country’s main financial district.
The warehouses are designed for high-volume logistics operations, featuring wide internal circulation areas for heavy vehicles and a cross-docking system that allows faster loading and unloading of goods.
The strong take-up reflects broader changes in the Philippine logistics sector. E-commerce growth, manufacturing expansion and evolving supply chain strategies have pushed companies to secure larger warehouse footprints close to major transport corridors.
Policy shifts on government land leases have also encouraged companies to secure long-term private logistics space.
With Silangan now fully leased, SM Offices said it is offering ready-to-occupy warehouse facilities in Pasig and Taguig. One site along C-5 Road sits on a four-hectare property and provides more than 20,000 square meters of warehouse space with mezzanine levels, loading bays and truck maneuvering areas.
The group is also open to build-to-suit industrial developments in locations such as Parañaque, Laguna, Cavite, Tarlac, Iloilo City and Davao City.
Ortiga said these sites can support logistics uses ranging from distribution hubs and manufacturing support to cold storage and data centers, sectors increasingly seen as key drivers of industrial real estate demand.
