Driving Growth: SM City Davao's Expansion Boosts Business Opportunities

SM City Davao, the first SM mall in Mindanao, is embarking on a significant expansion, reinforcing its position as the premier shopping and business hub in the region.

"The first and largest SM mall in Mindanao expands with a new multi-level building, including the first National University in the region, enhancing business opportunities."

With over 20 years of success in Davao City, SM City Davao is set to increase its footprint with an additional 100,000 square meters of floor area. The seven-level expansion, designed by acclaimed architect Royal Pineda, known for high-profile projects such as the New Clark International Airport, offers a blend of traditional and modern elements, creating a unique Davao experience.

The top two floors of the new building will house the first National University in Mindanao, marking a significant milestone for education in the region. As part of the SM Group of Companies, National University is committed to providing ‘education that works,’ enhancing the local talent pool and creating new opportunities for businesses seeking skilled professionals.

The expansion also includes two levels dedicated to leisure and retail, offering prime spaces for new and existing tenants to capitalize on the increased foot traffic. Three levels of indoor parking, accommodating approximately 1,000 vehicles, ensure a seamless shopping experience for visitors, further driving consumer engagement.
