Date posted September 28, 2019

Property developer Ortigas & Company was recognized as the “Master Planner of the Year” during the Japan International Property Awards (JIPA).

The recognition, which was deliberated by a panel of industry experts from various fields in real estate, was awarded to the Philippine company in a ceremony held on September 4 at Andaz Tokyo Toranomon Hills in Tokyo, Japan.

The “Master Planner of the Year” award is a special distinction given to developers who have executed their vision of building seamless communities that integrate a diverse selection of developments in a masterful way.

Ortigas & Company is the developer of Greenhills Center, Ortigas East, Circulo Verde and Capitol Commons.

JIPA said Ortigas & Company has been successful in introducing properties which have become hallmarks for celebrating life's defining moments. The award-giving body also recognizes that the company is able to evolve with their communities and deliver products of innovation and creativity catering to the needs and dreams of today's future generation.

For more than 88 years, Ortigas & Company has been guided by the philosophy of master-planning—developing spaces for communities to thrive and evolve with the people who live in these spaces. As one of the pioneer developers in the country, Ortigas & Company has built—and continues to introduce—properties that cater to the evolving needs of its customers.

Ortigas & Company is able to offer something different and unique to shape the urban landscape of Metro Manila. Each estate has residential, retail, and office spaces, and has integrated green open spaces such as parks and recreational hubs; testament to the company’s commitment of building great places for life.

Each residential tower offered by the company across its estates boast distinct features and unique amenities appealing to different investors, depending on their lifestyle. The various offices are strategically located to be confined within the estates, and another one is set to rise at Ortigas Center, one of the country’s top Central Business Districts.

The retail concepts of the company continue to attract crowds as the company always searches for new concepts among budding entrepreneurs and established brands in the country.

Last year, Ortigas & Co. was given a special award by JIPA recognizing the company as the Fastest Growing Real Estate Developer.

The Japan International Property Awards showcases Southeast Asia’s best developments from residential to commercial, recognizing top regional developers and their flagship projects that passed the rigid Japanese standards of development excellence.
