Lipa‑Malvar, Batangas — Fly Ace Corporation is taking a decisive step in Philippine manufacturing with the development of a 7-hectare facility within LIMA Estate. The facility marks the company’s evolution from an importer and distributor of fast-moving consumer goods to an integrated local producer.
For more than five decades, Fly Ace has been a strong force in the Philippine consumer landscape, developing well-loved brands such as Jolly, Doña Elena, Jolly Heart Mate and Good Life, as well as partnering with global brands such as Welch’s, Lotus and Mott’s. This new facility allows the company to produce closer to local markets, strengthen the resilience of food supply chains, open avenues for export-oriented activity, and create opportunities for joint ventures with existing and future business partners.
Headquartered in Pasay City, Fly Ace Corporation is expanding its footprint in Southern Luzon as it advances plans to streamline production and explore opportunities in the export market.
The decision to locate at LIMA Estate reflects its role as an ecosystem that supports long-term industrial growth. With ready-to-operate infrastructure, PEZA regulatory enablement, and direct access to key transport corridors, the estate sits at the centre of industrial activity in Southern Luzon. Its location along major thoroughfares such as SLEX, STAR, and CALAX places it within efficient reach of major ports of entry such as the Manila International Airport, Manila International Container Terminal, the Port of Batangas, and the emerging South Luzon Container Terminal. This connectivity allows Fly Ace to optimise logistics, improve operational efficiency, and deepen collaboration with global partners while embedding more of its value chain in the Philippine economy.
When we visited LIMA, I could see why it’s the right place for this investment. As a well-planned industrial development, we look forward to partnering with Aboitiz for this landmark expansion project.
Lucio Cochanco Jr.
President, Fly Ace Corporation
Beyond operational gains, the facility contributes to a larger narrative for Batangas and the CALABARZON region, where industrial activity generates employment, strengthens supplier networks, and drives long-term economic momentum.
The 70-hectare Biz Hub at LIMA Estate, the first masterplanned Central Business District in Batangas, showcases how lifestyle, progress, and sustainability can seamlessly come together.
LIMA Estate today hosts nearly 200 locators and has created 75,000 high-quality jobs across diverse sectors. Each new investment reinforces how industrial-anchored developments cultivate growth that extends beyond company walls into communities and regional economies.
Over the last five years, our Economic Estates have attracted strong interest from both foreign and domestic investors across our portfolio, and we remain committed to providing a reliable environment through our ecosystem of solutions that help businesses grow and scale.
Rafael Fernandez de Mesa,
President & CEO, Aboitiz Economic Estates | Aboitiz Land.
For Fly Ace, this move represents both growth and continuity — reinforcing the company’s role in supporting jobs, strengthening supply chains, and strongly contributing to the Philippines’ manufacturing landscape.
