The Cebu City Business Processing and Licensing Office (BPLO) reported a significant increase in revenue collections for the first quarter of 2025, reaching P1.896 billion—marking a P252.9 million hike compared to the same period last year.

During the flag-raising ceremony on Monday, Cebu City Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia commended the BPLO for its improved performance and encouraged the office to continue its efforts in generating sufficient funding for the city's development initiatives.

According to data provided to the media, the BPLO collected P1,643,041,999 during the first quarter of 2024. This year’s Q1 collection of P1.896 billion represents a considerable increase.

In a separate interview, BPLO head Terence Saavedra attributed the growth to the office's aggressive permit mapping campaign. As part of this strategy, the BPLO hired additional personnel focused solely on monitoring malls and their stalls to ensure compliance with licensing regulations.
