Location is everything for any business to thrive. With limited movement allowed under quarantine guidelines, it is all the more important to invest in budding communities that offer all the essentials. One such estate is Vermosa, Ayala Land’s 725-hectare mixed-use estate in Cavite. Designed to house a one-of-a-kind sports complex, Vermosa seeks to promote a community with a balanced lifestyle, which has become all the more important in this pandemic.
Solid opportunities from a young, active population
Locators at Vermosa benefit from the young and active population surrounding Cavite towns and nearby Alabang, not to mention about 500,000 workers the estate is expected to have once fully completed. The area is packed with commercial, industrial, and IT zones, presenting solid opportunities for anyone looking to enter that market.“The potential for growth in this area of Cavite continues to be unmistakable despite of the impact of the pandemic to construction and development, but we are now back on track with the easing of quarantine guidelines,” said Ayala Land Estates AVP Cris Zuluaga.Â
Next business, lifestyle district
Nuvali, Ayala Land’s 2,290-hectare eco-city development spanning the cities of Sta. Rosa, Cabuyao and Calamba in Laguna, is rising to become CALABARZON’s regional growth center. It is envisioned to become the next business and lifestyle district south of Makati. With several business process outsourcing firms already located in Nuvali, Ayala Land continues to offer commercial lots for PEZA and non-PEZA locators in the estate. East Bloc, its upcoming commercial district, would be the perfect place to set up office buildings, hotels, condominiums, or other institutional facilities. Nuvali also houses Lakeside Evozone (seen in photo), a 65-hectare commercial district which has already attracted multi-national  firms like Concentrix and IBM. Retail and recreational facilities such Ayala Malls Solenad, Seda Hotel and The Monochrome Events Place are also rooted within the district. Â
Set up for success
Another budding Ayala Land estate is Arca South, a 74-hectare mixed-use estate that has been set up for success given its proximity to Makati and Bonifacio Global City.Â
Arca South’s commercial district will benefit from its accessibility to several upcoming government infrastructure projects, such as the South East Metro Manila Expressway, Taguig Integrated Terminal Exchange, and the Mega Manila Subway. Up north is Alviera (Seen here), in partnership with Leonio Land, is the 1,800-hectare urban development in Pampanga intertwined with the natural features and views of Porac. Located just five minutes from the SCTEx Porac exit, 20 minutes from the Clark International Airport, 45 minutes from the Subic Freeport and 1.5-hour drive from Manila, Alviera offers a strategic location for multi-national and regional businesses looking to take advantage of emerging economies in the Central and North Luzon regions.Among Alviera’s key features is its East Commercial Center, where lot owners can utilize their property into commercial, institutional, multi-family residential, or accommodation uses. This commercial district is strategically surrounded by institutional facility, Holy Angel University, the 64-hectare Alviera industrial park, as well as different Ayala Land residential brands such as Ayala Land Premier.

Connecting the dots
Connecting the dots for all Ayala Land estates is its estate management which ensures that communities run smoothly, adapt and recover quickly from challenges. “Soon, confidence will return,” Zuluaga predicted. “Economic activities will increase, and so our efforts today are focused on ensuring that our developments are well-positioned for resurgence and remain as strong platforms for growth.”Â
