Business / Investment Opportunities
Attuned to the overall vision of a fully-integrated community, LLI has set its focus on the development (either via joint or outright sale) of remaining available properties which include the following:
  • Isleworth Properties (9.9 has.) This property was formerly a garments factory. It has 2 major structures with a
    combined floor area of 2.8 hectares. This is ideal for major manufacturing concerns, taking advantage of the
    existing structures. Indicative selling price is USD45 per square meter, inclusive of all existing improvements.
  • Commercial – A (8.7 has.) This refers to the prime commercial lots located in front of Lima City Hotel near the main road. Lots are open for the development of any retail and/or F&B-oriented projects that would cater to locators, their employees, and the general public.
  • Commercial – B (73.9 has.) The property across the LiMA Technology Center on the west side of the National
    Highway. This area is earmarked for future development into commercial and residential projects as part of the township concept. This area will be directly accessible from the STAR Tollway through the planned LiMA
    Interchange and the JP Laurel National Highway.
