The Pueblo de Oro Township is more than just residential subdivisions and a golf course. A key component of Pueblo's masterplan are the commercial areas. Following the concepts of new urbanism, where you can work where you live, the commercial areas are interspersed with residential and recreational areas so it is possible to live in one of the villages and just take a short drive or even walk to work, shop and play.
The main entrance to the Pueblo Business Park along Gran Via, one of the major spines of the Township.Cagayan de Oro is recognized as one of the fastest growing and most peaceful cities in the Philippines. Ideally located, it is a natural gateway to Northern Mindanao. As the central trading hub in the entire Mindanao Island, the City has a thriving industrial and commercial zone, and the Pueblo de Oro Township is strategically centered at the heart of what is touted to be the city's new and emerging commercial and residential district - Uptown Cagayan de Oro.
Towering over the old and built-up downtown commercial district, Pueblo is replete with world-class features and amenities such as wide and well-lit paved roads, reliable power and water supply, landscaped parks and open spaces, round-the-clock security, and accessibility to public transport and the airport. This completeness makes it a notch above the rest. In addition, Pueblo de Oro offers a wide range of commercial products to suit all kinds of business needs, from small and medium enterprises to big companies and corporations:
With lots ranging between 900 sq.m. to 1,100 sq.m. per lot, the Pueblo Business Park caters to corporate clients and big businesses. It is the home to SM City Mall with a land area of 5.8 hectares and a floor area of 5.6 hectares. Companies like Mandaue Foam, the Professional Group of Companies, Bank of the Philippine Islands, and Petron, among others, have already invested in the BP for their future CdeO offices or operations.
The PEZA-accredited Pueblo IT Ecozone is suitable for call centers, business process outsourcing and IT outsourcing entities. It has the distinction of being the first I.T. Park in Mindanao. At present, Concentrix (formerly Link2Support) operates a 650-seater call center here.
Regatta Square, which offers lots in 300 sq.m. units, is Pueblo's answer to the small and medium enterprises and are ideal for boutique hotels, restaurants, franchise stores, spas, salons, specialty shops.
Golden Glow North Commercial is a mixed-use strip-commercial area along Macapagal Drive for apartments, four-storey commercial stalls ideal for clinics, mom-and-pop shops, mini-hardware, salons, spas, specialty stores, convenience stores and the like.
Masterson Mile, located along the busy Masterson Avenue linking the city to the airport, houses offices, bakeries and food shops and is ideal for display and fitness centers, clinics, and other businesses. Its first locator is the HP Solution Center.
All these commercial areas are surrounded by nine (and counting) Pueblo high-end and middle class subdivisions, teeming with residents and locators who are a ready clientele. In addition, the local government of Cagayan de Oro provides a package of investment incentives to lure businesses to come and locate here. With the all-year round typhoon-free tropical climate, and Pueblo's elevation 80 meters above sea level which makes it flood-free plus no traffic jams, the location is conducive for unhampered business activities.
All these and more are reasons why Pueblo de Oro is the ideal place to park your business here.
