SM Offices, the commercial property arm of SM Prime Holdings Inc. (SM Prime), strengthens its regional footprint with the launch of The Core Tower Three in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, its 15th office development outside Metro Manila.
“The Core Towers reflects the growing demand for future-ready office spaces in regional growth centers like Sta. Rosa,” said SM Prime Vice President and Head of SM Offices Alexis Ortiga in a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE).
Ortiga added that, “We are seeing sustained interest from companies looking for scalable locations that combine operational efficiency with strong local talent pools.”
Located within the SM City Sta. Rosa complex, the three-tower development brings over 27,000 square meters (sqm) of prime office space to the South Luzon market.
