Situated in the southern part of Luzon, the first-class province of Batangas boasts many impressive industries which makes it one of CALABARZON’s leaders in economic growth. Batangas, with its strong economic force, tremendously improved its growth to 12.5% in 2021 after a decline of -14.4% in 2020.
Batangas has emerged as a key gateway to trade and progress with infrastructures such as the Batangas International Port and Batangas City International Container Terminal where movement of goods both from local and foreign sources take place. Batangas also possesses a diverse economic landscape which contributes to the province’s growth. Different economic zones in Batangas City, Lipa City, and Santo Tomas City provide not only globally competitive outputs but also investment interests for both local and international investors.
Beyond the economic potentials of Batangas, the province’s tourism sector is also seen as a driving factor to boost the province further. Among the many tourist attractions, Batangas Governor Hermilando Mandanas highlighted the province’s star attractions namely the Verde Island Passage, Taal Volcano, and Taal Basilica. Focus on industries like commercial fishing and communications technology are also seen to be big contributors to the province’s advancement.
Furthermore, the real estate sector of Batangas is also experiencing a remarkable upswing with various real estate companies developing residential areas for people who want to own their own property in the province. Road expansions and improvements in transportation as well as mobility make Batangas a sought after location for real estate investments.
With locations in Lipa City, Malvar, and Santo Tomas City, Pueblo de Oro (PDO) caters to varied customers who want to make Batangas their home. 2023 saw a ramped-up demand for PDO’s real estate projects, ending the year with over P1B in sales reservations just for their Sto. Tomas and Malvar projects alone.
Last December 9, 2023, a groundbreaking ceremony for Pueblo De Oro’s Courtyards Lipa was held. The event attended by Lipa City’s Mayor, Honorable Eric Africa, aims to bring the Pueblo de Oro living experience to the Lipeños. It also served as a symbol of a transformative journey that promises to redefine the cityscape of Lipa. The development is set to offer not just residences but a holistic living experience, blending modern conveniences with the charm of the local culture. The Courtyards Lipa is poised to become a center of urban living, embodying Pueblo De Oro’s commitment to creating sustainable, well-planned communities that enhance the quality of life for its residents.
