Ayala Land Estates: Catalyst for progressive businesses in South Luzon

Amid evolving economic landscapes and consumer expectations, the demand for well-planned business environments that are adaptable and sustainable has never been greater.

These settings, after all, not only empower businesses to thrive in the present, but also ensure their resilience in the face of future challenges.

Solid foundation

Ayala Land Estates are designed to provide exactly that—masterplanned, resilient, and strategically located communities that offer businesses a solid foundation to establish a stronger market presence.

From the outset, these mixed-use developments offer immediate advantages like accessibility and high visibility, attracting customers, quality talent, and new opportunities. With sustainable designs, these estates also support future business growth and expansion while fostering community building and environmental well-being.

Particularly for companies with a long term vision, Ayala Land estates present significant growth potential. Each estate is built to thrive independently while being part of a larger interconnected network, giving businesses the flexibility to expand, evolve, and build for future markets.

Case in point are its estates in the South, from Circuit Makati, Nuvali and Broadfield in Laguna, Arca South in Taguig City, Areza in Batangas, to Vermosa in Cavite. These communities serve as prime examples of high growth environments that cater to today’s diverse business landscape, while stimulating job creation and economic activity.

Nuvali: An eco-friendly business environment

One of the most successful examples is Nuvali, a 2,400-ha eco-city in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

This well-established yet continuously evolving estate presents to businesses an opportunity to grow within a complete community that combines commercial potential with environmental sustainability through partnerships with ACEN Renewable Energy at the Lakeside Evozone and the ACMobility EV Charging Stations.

Alongside attracting an eco-conscious customer base and firms that prioritize sustainability, Nuvali assures significant foot traffic owing to its vibrant mix of neighborhoods, lush parks, educational institutions, and attractions like The Trails, the 8-ha Driving Range and the newly opened Veranda Sunset events venue.

New developments—including Jollibee Nuvali (opening in 1Q 2025), Museum for Architecture + Residences (1H 2026), and two 12-ha mixed-use hubs, East Bloc, MerryMart and The Shops at Central Bloc—will further enhance the estate’s dynamic commercial environment. To provide more quality retail spaces, the estate offers Nuvali TechnoHub, which has 24,000 sqm of gross leasable area, and the Solenad Mall, which is currently undergoing upgrades.

Signature events

Further enriching the community are events like the Fountain of Lights Festival, an awe-inspiring fusion of lights, music, and storytelling on water and onground, at its famous Lakeside, happening from Nov. 14 to Jan. 5, 2025, Friday to Sunday at 6:00 p.m. to 10 p.m. It is Nuvali’s gift to the community—a world-class destination where families can celebrate their holidays.

On Nov. 30, Nuvali, in collaboration with Coca- Cola, will have its first Christmas Drone Show, which will light up the skies over the East Bloc from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Meanwhile, the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour will happen at the Nuvali Sand Courts from Nov. 28 to Dec 1.

These signature events do not only elevate the estate with enhanced experiences but also serve as powerful drivers of local commerce, creating an even more dynamic environment for businesses.

Securing prime commercial lots and spaces in Nuvali will thus allow your business to gain that much sought access to an already thriving market within a masterplanned, sustainable ecosystem.

Vermosa: A fast growing hub in suburban South

The 752-ha Vermosa Estate—a burgeoning destination for retail, wellness, and active living—meanwhile offers prime commercial spaces in a rapidly growing community.

Given its excellent connectivity to Metro Manila, Vermosa already attracts a steady stream of residents, fitness enthusiasts, and families drawn to its expansive green spaces, sports facilities, outdoor activities, other lifestyle amenities and institutional services with its Campus Town.

Interactive attractions

The “Holiday at Play”, now on its second year following its successful launch in 2023, is seen to heighten the estate’s appeal as a premier hub for leisure and commerce, bringing in a wider, more engaged audience.

Happening from Nov. 15 to Jan. 12, 2025, this free holiday spectacle at the

Ayala Malls Vermosa’s Central Garden will have light and sound shows, as well as interactive attractions like musical light displays, sensor-illuminated pathways, and the iconic 30-foot Whimsical Wonder centerpiece.

Ayala Malls Vermosa, in particular, will be a crowd drawer with its host of shops, dining outlets, cinemas, and a 1.9-ha Central Garden, along with a jogging path, calisthenics field, kiddie playground, BarkYard, among others. Worth looking forward to as well are additions such as Cavite’s first Landers Superstore opening in 2025, and the expanded Ayala Malls Vermosa lineup featuring Timezone, Robinson’s Appliances, Asics Nike, Adidas, Planet Sports, Anytime Fitness and more.

Beyond these, Vermosa has expanded its residential developments through Alveo Land’s Caleia and Avida Land’s first mid-rise tower in Cavite, while the 500-seat San Sebastian Church inside the estate will break ground on Nov. 22.

The existing Vermosa Greenways meanwhile provides ample open, lush spaces for residents to connect with nature and each other.

All these are made highly accessible to guests owing to the future planned Vermosa Transport Terminal, which reinforces the estate’s role as premier urban development.

Establishing your business in Vermosa thus presents an opportunity to position your brand in an estate designed for growth and visibility and, more importantly, to tap into a much bigger market who value quality retail, wellness, and lifestyle experiences.

Circuit Makati: A creative hub for commerce, innovation

Built on the historic grounds of the former Santa Ana racetrack, the 22-ha Circuit Makati stands as Ayala Land’s arts and culture district, supporting global and local talent.

This vibrant estate has been intentionally designed to foster synergy among commerce, arts, and lifestyle—evident in its mix of theaters, green spaces, and lifestyle amenities. As it cultivates an inspiring environment, Circuit Makati attracts a diverse audience, from artists, entrepreneurs, professionals, to tourists.

Companies in Circuit Makati can readily benefit from high foot traffic, enhanced brand visibility, and the chance to engage with a cosmopolitan market who values innovation and cultural experiences.

Offering premium commercial spaces in a lively urban landscape, Circuit Makati places businesses at that sweet spot between commerce and creativity, providing proximity to the CBD while attracting top talent and discerning consumers.

Arca South: Expanding business horizons

In Taguig City, the 74-ha Arca South serves as Ayala Land’s premier gateway to Metro Manila’s bustling economic core, offering an equally dynamic environment in the capital region.

Given its proximity to key infrastructure projects like Skyway, South Luzon Expressway (SLEx), the upcoming Metro Manila Subway and the North South Commuter Rail, Arca South stands as an ideal choice for businesses seeking accessibility.

So far, Arca South has a transport terminal, office buildings, commercial centers, open green spaces, and activities that support better productivity, creativity, and well-being.

It further cements its reputation as a premier business and lifestyle hub with the completion of key developments including residential projects, a Landers Superstore, and the Healthway Cancer Care Hospital—the country’s first comprehensive cancer care facility. The newly completed Family Park meanwhile provides a lush, green retreat for families and professionals.

Worth noting, too, is the completion of Arca South Pitch, a FIFA-certified facility that sets the stage for world-class sporting events and recreational activities—one that is further elevated by a partnership with Camp Nou PH Inc., which brought Barca Academy Manila to the estate. The Barca Academy which is aimed at children aged 6 to 18 years old, replicates the game model established in the coaching teams at FC Barcelona.

The estate’s growth will continue in 2025 with the addition of Ayala Malls Arca South.

With modern infrastructure, sustainable features, and an emerging market of discerning consumers and professionals, Arca South positions businesses to capture a slice of Metro Manila’s vibrant economy while providing a competitive edge in the long run.

Broadfield: Building businesses from classrooms to commerce

Also in Laguna is the 120-ha Broadfield, Ayala Land’s fast rising estate, the first business campus in the south. Broadfield brings together diverse spaces and experiences, seamlessly integrating business and learning environments, complemented by the De La Salle Laguna community and the thriving communities and businesses surrounding it.

Situated near Nuvali and Laguna Technopark, Broadfield offers businesses proximity to industrial hubs, major highways—including CALAX, South Boulevard, and Carmona-Biñan Road, and a growing residential base as well as major lifestyle and recreation facilities. Activities like Pet Blessing, Pet Parade, and Christmas Market at Central Park happening on December 1 from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. are likewise seen to encourage community experiences, drawing in residents, employees, and visitors alike.

Broadfield all the more fosters an active, sustainable, healthy, connected lifestyle, a strong sense of belonging with its ample parks, interconnected bike lanes, walkways canopied by trees, pedestrian-friendly areas, and a community retail being one of the future developments within Broadfield estate.

With Broadfield’s masterplan emphasizing connectivity, flexibility, and community, its commercial lots hence provide investors with prime opportunities to establish a foothold in an estate that promises significant capital appreciation and access to a ready customer base.

Areza: Launchpad for enterprises

Areza, Ayala Land’s 92-ha estate in Lipa City, Batangas, will meanwhile serve as a launchpad for enterprises wanting to expand in this highly accessible quarter in the South.

Poised to become the new downtown of Lipa, Areza is designed to become a vibrant commercial, cultural, and civic hub that touts a strategic location. Key developments such as the soon-to-be-completed Lipa City Hall and a regional food trading center by 2025 are set to anchor the estate’s role as a governance and Agri-industrial center.

The estate’s commercial district, featuring shophouses and iconic institutional landmarks, is expected to support businesses across industries, from agribusiness to outsourcing firms. This early, investors are already taking notice, with 75 percent of shophouse lots sold since its 2022 launch, underscoring Areza’s rise as the next big thing in Batangas.

Lucrative opportunities

Indeed, Ayala Land Estates in the South provide lucrative opportunities to thrive in high-growth environments that deliver both immediate gains and long term sustainability.
