Makati is known to be one of the Philippines’ pioneering business districts. The city home to many multinational corporations and some of the country’s most notable banking corporations. Over the years, it has grown to be an ideal location for offices, commercial, and retail establishments.
Before you lease, buy or rent an office space, it is smart to know if the location is accredited by the Philippine Economic Zone Authority. PEZA is created to encourage investments into the country by providing incentives to businesses or investors in the form of tax holidays, discounts and the like once they operate in these accredited economic zones.
