Aligned with its vision of being the leading industrial and real estate logistics company in the Philippines, AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp. (ALLHC) was commended as one of Asia’s Leading SMEs at the Asia Corporate Excellence and Sustainability Awards (ACES) 2022.
The ACES Awards recognizes inspiring individuals and enterprises in Asia in the domains of leadership and sustainability. This year, ACES attracted over 470 nominations from numerous organizations across the region.
The company was named winner of the leadership award following a stringent evaluation and selection process among small medium enterprises (with a minimum annual turnover of $10 million) in Asia.
The award is presented to companies that “have a sustainable business model, strong customer base, innovative product offering, growing revenue and profits, and the flexibility to respond to rapid changes in the industry and customer demand.”
ALLHC chief operating officer Patrick C. Avila said, “We are honored and grateful for this recognition as one of Asia’s Leading SMEs. This award underpins the organization’s growth efforts while staying true to our mission of being co-catalysts for progress and development.”
ACES Awards Lead Jury Dr. Jayanthi Desan noted, “Business momentum is the impetus that drives a company’s growth, and AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp. certainly shows no signs of slowing down.
Entering new and unknown segments puts significant risks on any corporation, but ALLHC has demonstrated indisputable resilience throughout as it continues to build upon its successes.
The recognition body is organized by leading research-based sustainability network, MORS Group. Its CEO, Shanggari Balakrishnan said, “Opportunities don’t happen. You create them instead. Despite being in a competitive industry, AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp. has propelled its steady growth by capitalizing on a diversified product portfolio — a silver bullet that gives the SME a winning advantage over its peers. It surely is a rightful win other players can most definitely learn from.”
Previous winners of the title were Berjayapak Sdn. Bhd. of Malaysia in 2020 and Cyclect Electrical Engineering PTE LTD of Singapore in 2019.
