Damosa Land, a premier homegrown developer, is at the forefront of transforming Mindanao into a globally competitive investment hub.
With the Anflo Industrial Estate as its flagship project, the company is combining world-class infrastructure with a focus on sustainability and economic inclusivity. As Damosa Land continues to grow, it is shaping the future of industrial, residential and logistics development in the region.
“The significant growth comes from a combination of factors. First, there is the number of projects we’ve undertaken. But more importantly, we made a conscious effort to diversify across different sectors of real estate,” said Ricardo F. Lagdameo, president and CEO of Damosa Land.
“We’re not just focused on industrial parks. We’ve diversified into residential properties, office leasing and larger mixed-use developments. Last year was our best year in terms of revenue, and we expect this year to be just as successful.”
AIE, which spans over 63 hectares, is registered with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority, offering both fiscal and nonfiscal incentives to attract investment. Strategically located within Davao’s agricultural innovation corridor, the industrial park provides tenants with easy access to the Davao International Container Terminal, which services about 70% of the Davao region’s international container throughput. This proximity allows companies to reduce logistics costs and enhance operational efficiency, especially for export-driven industries.
“The port’s proximity to our industrial park is a critical advantage,” Lagdameo said. “It saves on logistics costs and improves efficiency. We’re also proud to offer cold storage facilities to companies operating in the park, which is especially beneficial for businesses dealing with perishable goods.”
Damosa Land is committed to making Mindanao a key driver of national growth, and we will continue to create sustainable, inclusive opportunities for local and global investors.

AIE has attracted both local and international businesses, including Packwell Inc., a Japan-based manufacturer of paper-based packaging and containers. In addition, Head Sport, a leading global sporting goods brand, has chosen AIE for the world’s largest tennis ball factory. This facility will produce 168 million tennis balls annually, underscoring the region’s potential for large-scale manufacturing operations.
In addition to AIE, Damosa Land is expanding with several key projects. Bridgeport Park, a seaside leisure development on Samal Island, is thriving amid the growing demand for leisure real estate. Agriya, combining agriculture and tourism, further enhances the company’s portfolio. Kahi Estates, a high-end subdivision, serves as a model of sustainability for Mindanao, incorporating green building features like solar panels, tree retention and rainwater catchment.
Beyond real estate, Damosa Land is deeply committed to community development. The company’s industrial park has already created around 1,200 jobs, with plans to expand that number to 2,000 by year’s end. By the time the park is fully developed, Damosa Land estimates it will provide 5,000 jobs, contributing significantly to the local economy. The company is also engaged in sustainability efforts, scholarship programs for student athletes and the development of infrastructure for schools.
“We’re very active in the communities where we operate. Creating jobs is just one aspect of our commitment to local development,” Lagdameo said.
Damosa Land’s vision for Mindanao extends beyond industrial growth. Given its PEZA-registered industrial park, full logistics support and proximity to a major international port, Damosa Land offers an investment-ready destination for both local and international companies.
And with locators from six countries including Japan, Austria and Thailand, the park has become a hub for global businesses seeking to tap into the region’s growth potential.
“We’re backed by a large, diverse conglomerate with solid capital and a long history, ensuring that we’re well-positioned for future growth,” Lagdameo noted. “Damosa Land is committed to making Mindanao a key driver of national growth, and we will continue to create sustainable, inclusive opportunities for local and global investors.”
