AC Beautiful Island Realty launches pilot project in Pampanga

MANILA, Philippines — AC Beautiful Island Realty Development Corp. (ACBI) has launched its pilot development, The Shoppes at the Infinity, touted as the newest retail and commercial hub in Pampanga.

It is expected to be the next go-to leisure destination in the region, said Byron John Siy, ACBI general manager.

“The Shoppes, a sprawling retail strip within the upcoming fully-integrated city, will offer 15,600 square meters of palatable delights, local and global boutique brands and service establishments, making it not only a shopper’s paradise but a top-of-mind recreation experience,” Siy said.

The retail landscape will highlight a relaxed and nature-inspired atmosphere while satisfying the shopping and dining needs of the region, he added.

ACBI will start construction of the recreation zone in the middle of this year.

It expects to commence operations of the first phase of the project by the second quarter of 2019.

ACBI, the real estate arm of the Jenra Group of Companies, is the company behind The Infinity.

It envisioned the commerce district to open prospects for Pampanga and to serve as a commerce link of the region to the rest of Luzon. This is due to the strategic location of The Infinity at the gateway of Central Luzon and its direct connection to the North Luzon Expressway via the Angeles Exit.

The Infinity traverses the cities of Angeles and Mabalacat in Pampanga.

Masterplanned by Palafox Associates, The Infinity will be a 40-hectare development that will soon house business, commercial, residential and all other dynamic features that complete a community.

Siy said utilities at The Infinity are tucked underground making the road networks functional and aesthetic. Moreover, sustainable features are also in place as the company follows the green building code.

In addition, The Infinity offers freehold ownership and long-term lease investment options.

Siy said the different infrastructure in the region being developed by both the public and private sector also make the business district attractive.

These include a world-class airport, the world’s largest indoor arena, and an all-weather golf course.
