Cebu Landmasters will add to Cebu’s office space with the construction of the Latitude Corporate Center that’s scheduled for completion in 2019 at the Cebu Business Park.

Launched recently in partnership with the Borromeo Bros. Estates, the 24-storey tower will provide total gross area of 35,000 square meters for three types of offices: executive, enterprise, and business process outsourcing (BPO).
