As the country commemorates Japan-Philippines Friendship Day on July 23, Federal Land NRE Global Inc. (FNG) embraces a strategic alliance towards setting new benchmarks and bridging the two rich cultures together.
FNG, an alliance between the two real estate giants, premier Philippine real-estate giant Federal Land, Inc. and Japanese firm Nomura Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (NRE), aims to infuse “Japanese innovation with Filipino sensibility” in milestone project developments set to rise in key cities in Metro Manila, South Luzon, and Cebu.
The partnership, led by Federal Land Chairman Alfred Ty and Nomura Real Estate Holdings Chair Eiji Kutsukake, sees a combined century of local and international real estate experience. Founded on mutual respect, and a celebration of cultural and technological exchange, FNG is expected to usher in new-level developments to pave the way to better and more dynamic lifestyles for Filipinos.
Federal Land, Inc., with over five decades of experience, stands as an influential contributor to the Philippine urban landscape. As a subsidiary of GT Capital Holdings, the company has consistently redefined city living through innovative residential developments, commercial spaces, office buildings, hotels, and integrated communities. Its presence within the GT Capital Holdings conglomerate further solidifies its position as a driving force in the industry.
On the other hand, Nomura Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., with its roots extending back to the 1950s, boasts a strong reputation in Japan’s real estate realm. Engaged in a range of activities including residential development, leasing, investment management, property brokerage, and facility management, the company is an exemplar of industry diversification. The initial project pipeline under FNG incorporates four areas of land development with a total area of about 250 hectares in Metro Manila, Cavite, and Cebu. These include residential, office, and commercial facilities.
FNG’s commitment to redefining urban living manifests through its noteworthy projects, each embodying a distinct vision for modern living.
Yume at Riverpark Cavite: A haven of Japanese inspiration
Emerging as the “Next Gen City of the South,” Riverpark is Federal Land Communities’ 600-has township intended to be a key economic and industrial center in General Trias, Cavite. The development can easily be reached via the Manila-Cavite Expressway (Cavitex), Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway (MCX), and Daang Hari Road and several connecting roads to Cavite-Laguna Expressway (Calax).
Designed to exemplify future Filipino living, it is seamlessly transforming into a dynamic community, thanks to many recent developments including FNG’s Yume at Riverpark, an 18-hectare Japanese-inspired residential neighborhood.
Embracing lot sizes ranging from ±300-527 sqm, this residential enclave harmonizes the aesthetics of Japanese design with contemporary family requirements. Yume at Riverpark will feature various amenities including a spa, a swimming pool, an open lawn, and multiple pocket parks with fitness stations.
Colliers Philippines’ Q1 2024 survey underscores the sustained interest in residential properties beyond Metro Manila, particularly in horizontal developments. The future neighborhood’s aspiration is to create a serene and rejuvenating environment for families to thrive.
The Observatory Mandaluyong: A contemporary retreat
The Observatory, situated in Mandaluyong City, presents a modern retreat in a strategically advantageous locale, with seamless access to major business districts like Makati, BGC, and Ortigas through well-connected routes such as EDSA and the BGC-Ortigas Link Bridge.
Its first tower, Sora, will offer unit sizes spanning from compact studios at ± 28 – 33.5 sqm to expansive penthouses at ±155.5-205 sqm. What sets The Observatory apart is its fusion of Japanese efficiency and functionality with modern urban living. Each residential tower, starting with Sora Tower, embodies the spirit of Japanese city culture. From amenities inspired by Tokyo’s vibrant Shibuya district to user-friendly features like multi-functional sink modules, and adjustable wardrobe shelves, every detail is crafted to enhance residents’ comfort and convenience.
Historical data from Leechiu Property Consultants reveal a consistent price increase in vertical developments in Mandaluyong, highlighting the area’s investment potential. The Observatory in Mandaluyong integrates modernity with an inviting retreat, promising a holistic urban living experience.
UNIQLO Logistics Facility at Riverpark North
Aside from the notable residential property developments, FNG has recently announced a collaboration with Fast Retailing Philippines that redefines logistics operations by prioritizing worker well-being and environmental sustainability as exemplified in the upcoming UNIQLO Logistics Facility.
Designed as a “strategic, human-centric logistics facility,” UNIQLO’s new facility will integrate sustainable practices to revolutionize operations and promote environmental stewardship. According to FNG, this dedication to innovation and sustainable development reflects their commitment to reshaping human living and enhancing the quality of life for the communities they serve. The partnership with Fast Retailing Philippines represents a significant step forward in contributing to the economic growth, job provision, and community development in the Philippines.
