KMC expansion to reinforce Cebu City's BPO hub status

KMC Solutions, the Philippines' largest provider of flexible office space, is expanding its presence in Cebu, with two additional floors under construction at SkyRise 4A building in Cebu IT Park, pushing its total capacity in the city to nearly 4,000 seats and strengthening Cebu's status as one of the company's top three strategic markets, alongside Makati and Bonifacio Global City.

Parry Nagpal, Chief Executive Officer for KMC Teams, and Tracy Ignacio, Chief Operating Officer of KMC Philippines, confirmed the aggressive expansion, attributing Cebu's rise to a combination of talent availability, supportive local governance, and evolving demand for premium workspaces.

"Our total portfolio across the Philippines is over 20,000 seats, and Cebu accounts for 17 percent of that," said Ignacio. "That places it third after Makati and BGC, but ahead of Quezon City and Ortigas, which is a testament to Cebu's strategic value."

This momentum reflects a bullish sentiment in the outsourcing and offshoring sector despite global economic uncertainties, including trade tariffs and geopolitical shifts.

With around 7000 employees under its Employer of Record (EOR) business model nationwide, KMC enables global firms—particularly from the US, Australia, APAC (Asia Pacific) and the Middle East—to build co-managed centers of excellence in the Philippines.

Approximately 500 of those employees are currently based in Cebu, though the number is set to grow significantly with the expansion of flexible office capacity.
