We host government, education, health, finance, logistics, and service institutions that serve Western Visayas and nearby island economies.
Invest in Iloilo City
We turn livability, talent, access, and culture into growth.
We offer investors more than a generic location. We provide Western Visayas market access, a large educated workforce, a maturing MICE and BPO ecosystem, heritage-led tourism, port and airport connectivity, resilient city planning, and the Philippines' first UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy identity.
Why Iloilo Is Different
We know investability is more than incentives. It is the operating environment.
Our universities, hospitals, professional services, and young services workforce support BPO, health care, technology, design, tourism, and local enterprise.
Our heritage districts, riverfront public space, food culture, walkability efforts, and major festivals help employers attract and retain people.
We invest in ICARE centers, CDRRMO operations, flood and coastal risk planning, and public safety systems that reduce uncertainty for businesses and communities.
We use our UNESCO gastronomy recognition to connect restaurants, agriculture, food processing, events, hospitality, education, and creative industries.
We provide official BPLS and downloadable OBO forms as practical starting points for permits while we continue improving digital service experience.

Investor Desk
We make the first meeting easy.
We help your company decide if Iloilo fits, collect the right details, and route your inquiry to the correct city office with enough context for response.
- Business activity and sector fit.
- Employment, site, utility, logistics, and permit needs.
- Requested action: site visit, incentives discussion, PPP briefing, BPLS assistance, or local partner referral.
- Response SLA visible to investors and trackable internally.
We connect our city story to your next step.
You can request a briefing, start BPLS, review PPPs, or schedule a site visit from one clear pathway.
Investor Inquiry
We route your intent to the right city desk.
When you submit this form, we generate an investor-intake packet and guide your inquiry to official investment and BPLS channels. Our goal is to keep your details organized so you do not have to repeat information as your request moves forward.
