PROFRIENDS HOUSE AND LOT
In a statement, the property developer said it secured Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) accreditation for the Suntech iPark in Imus, Cavite.
The IT park is located in a 25-hectare commercial and business district called Downtown Lancaster at the Lancaster New City, one of Pro-Friends’ township projects.
“Being a part of PEZA, Suntech iPark is now among the highest ranks of IT Park developers not only in the Philippines, but more so in a global scale,” PEZA Director-General Lilia B. de Lima said.
Among the fiscal incentives that locators can enjoy when they invest in Suntech iPark are 100 percent exemption from corporate income tax; 5 percent special tax on gross income and exemption from all national and local taxes, upon expiry of income tax holiday; tax and duty free importation of equipment and parts; exemption from dues on import shipments of equipment; value-added tax (VAT) zero-rating of local purchases of goods and services, extending to land-based telecommunications, electrical power, water bills and building lease; and exemption from expanded withholding tax.
Pro-Friends envisions Suntech iPark as a location for business process outsourcing (BPO) and similar companies, allowing residents of Lancaster New City to work near their homes.
“These area you see will be developed and be a source of living for the residents,” said Pro-Friends president Jocelyn Guzman.
