AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp. (ALLHC), the leading developer and operator of industrial parks and logistics facilities in the Philippines, has significantly bolstered its position in the industry with the acquisition of two strategic logistics parks through its subsidiaries: 3M Pangasinan in Barangay Catbalan, Urdaneta City, Pangasinan, and 3M Iloilo in Barangay Lupa, Santa Barbara, Iloilo. This acquisition further strengthens ALLHC’s reach across key regional hubs, enhancing its cold storage and dry warehousing capabilities.
Both newly acquired properties are equipped with state-of-the-art cold storage facilities, which will operate under ALLHC’s Artico Cold Chain brand. With the addition of Artico Urdaneta and Artico Iloilo, these parks mark the sixth and seventh additions to the Artico portfolio, bringing the total number of pallet positions across ALLHC’s cold storage facilities to 31,500.
Artico Urdaneta, easily accessible via Urdaneta-Mapandan Road and MacArthur Highway, offers 7,400 pallet positions across 15 cold rooms, while Artico Iloilo, is connected directly to the Iloilo-Sta. Barbara Road provides 3,800 pallet positions across 8 cold rooms. Both sites are accredited by the National Meat Inspection Service (NMIS), the Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI), and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR).
“We are thrilled to expand our logistics footprint with the acquisition of these two important properties,” said Robert S. Lao, President & CEO of ALLHC. “The addition of Artico Urdaneta and Artico Iloilo will enable us to better serve businesses in these vital regional hubs, supporting the growth of the agriculture and seafood sectors.”
In addition to expanding its cold storage network, the acquisition also strengthens ALLHC’s ALogis portfolio, contributing over 15,000 square meters of gross leasable area (GLA). This brings the company’s total GLA for dry storage to approximately 355,000 square meters. The facilities in Pangasinan and Iloilo are strategically located to cater to businesses in need of both temperature-controlled and dry storage solutions, particularly in regions that are crucial to the Philippines’ seafood and agricultural industries.
Jimmy Tan, owner of 3M Properties, expressed confidence in the partnership, noting that the transition would ensure continued support for local industries. “We are excited to collaborate with ALLHC, knowing that their expertise will help these facilities remain indispensable to businesses in Pangasinan and Iloilo, contributing to the growth of the local economy.”
