Perspective view of Robinsons Place Tagum

Tagum City, Davao del Norte — The economic momentum of Tagum City takes a significant leap forward as Robinsons Land Corporation (RLC), one of the country’s leading real estate developers, invests in the city with the opening of Robinsons Place Tagum. This major development is part of RLC’s 2015 nationwide expansion strategy, which includes the launch of at least three new malls and the enhancement of existing properties.

Set to become a new lifestyle and commercial destination in Davao del Norte, Robinsons Place Tagum boasts a Gross Floor Area (GFA) of 50,000 square meters and a Gross Leasable Area (GLA) of 30,000 square meters. Strategically located in the heart of the city, the mall is designed to cater to the rising consumer demand in the region while providing opportunities for both local and national businesses to expand their footprint in Mindanao.

The entry of a top-tier developer like Robinsons Land is a clear vote of confidence in Tagum City’s robust economic potential and investor-friendly climate. As part of the Metro Davao Development Authority (MDDA), Tagum plays a key role in the broader vision for a unified and progressive southern Mindanao. With modern infrastructure, strong governance, and a rapidly growing population, the city is well-positioned to become a prime location for retail, commercial, and real estate investments.

Robinsons Place Tagum is more than just a shopping mall—it is a catalyst for urban development and job creation. It is expected to boost the local economy by attracting new businesses, generating employment, and enhancing the city’s attractiveness as a regional retail and lifestyle hub.

Why Invest in Tagum City?

• Strategic Location: Positioned at the gateway of Davao del Norte and within Metro Davao, Tagum offers excellent connectivity to major cities in Mindanao.

• Growth-Ready Infrastructure: With continuous upgrades in roads, transport, and utilities, the city is primed for rapid development.

• Business-Friendly Environment: The local government actively supports investors through streamlined processes, incentives, and strong public-private partnerships.
