Reflecting on three decades of growth and innovation
Since its inception in 1994 with the launch of North Town Homes in Cebu, Aboitiz Land has established itself as the premium homegrown developer in Cebu, responsible for crafting the region’s most exclusive residential developments. Over the years, the company has expanded its portfolio with successful projects such as Briza, Mahogany Grove, Pristina North, and The Persimmon, among others.

Aboitiz Land’s journey, marked by resilience and adaptability, highlights its commitment to addressing the unique needs of the Filipino market. Innovations like OneVecino during the COVID-19 pandemic enhanced customer engagement, aligning with the goal of finding innovative ways to lead Filipinos home. Their Vecino App, virtual tours, and responsive website enhance customer experience. Partnering with mortgage brokers facilitates accessible home loans. Post-sale, omnichannel support and self-service tools like the Vecino Support Hub ensure customer satisfaction and feedback integration. Beyond digital innovation, Aboitiz Land employs advanced construction technologies like Danish precast and Japanese precast concrete panel systems for durability, insulation, and disaster resilience. They also invest in cloud-based mapping, 3D modeling, and smart block systems to streamline construction processes. As part of the Aboitiz group’s tech-driven strategy, they leverage data science and AI through initiatives like Parlay, a data exchange platform fostering synergy across diverse industries.
