PHILIPPINES
OVERVIEW
The Philippines strong economic
expansion affirmed its position as
one of Asia Pacific’s frontrunners,
with annual GDP growth rate
registered at 6.2% in 2018.
The country’s economic growth is heavily led by the
manufacturing and trade sectors, with 20% and 14%
share of the GDP, respectively. The service sector, which
is the fastest growing sector, is trailed closely by the
industrial sector, particularly by the buoyant construction
segment.
The on-going massive infrastructure programs are seen to
further augment the country’s attractiveness as an
investment destination and deliver sizeable economic
gains as they address the desperate need for better
infrastructures. Factoring in the healthy domestic demand
and investments, which are seen to counterpoise the
global economic pressures, the country is expected to
sustain its robust GDP growth trajectory.

The Philippines continue to diverge from
the global trend of dwindling traditional
retail activities as “brick and mortar”
stores continue to thrive and expand,
driven by the sustained increase in per
capita income and purchasing power of
the growing middle-class population.
In 2018 up to mid-2019, the Philippines welcomed at least
43 new foreign retail brands, of which 42% are in the Food
and Beverage (F&B) segment, and 14% are in the
Clothing and Apparel segment. Notable retailers with F&B
concepts include Popeyes, Shake Shack, Little Caesars
and M Bakery. Joining the Clothing and Apparel segment
are Off-White, Puma Select, and Stefano Ricci. Moreover,
the surging consumer demand for the latest healthcare
and beauty trends brought Innisfree and Freyja into the
country’s retail scene. The entry of these foreign brands
cemented Bonifacio Global City in Taguig City as a
premier financial and lifestyle business district, and an
attractive business destination, competing with Makati City
in these aspects, with 40% of these retailers starting their
operations in the area.
PHILIPPINESRETAIL SCENE
The robust demand for retail spaces in the country is
manifested by the healthy occupancy rate currently being
enjoyed by shopping malls and by the continuous
expansions and new developments of retail
establishments. With the Philippines being on track to
upper middle income status, the retail scene is expected
to head towards sustained growth.
While e-commerce does not necessarily translate to a
significant disturbance in the traditional retail situation, its
1% to 2% current share of the total retail value is
projected to upsurge with Filipino consumers spending
more time online and as retailers bet on the recent
evolution labelled as “bricks and clicks”, wherein physical
presence is integrated with online presence in an attempt
to offer an improved shopping experience to customers.

SUB-HEADING
PHILIPPINESKEY FEATURES OF LEASE STRUCTURE
KEY FEATURES OF LEASE
ITEM COMMENT
Lease Terms Typical lease terms for retail outlets in the Philippines run for 1-2 years. Anchor tenants may get a lease term of up to 5 years.
Rental Payment
Rents are usually payable with a month’s deposit and a quarter advance payable on the start of the lease, followed by monthly payments for the
remaining months. However, these terms are usually negotiable with the landlord and usually depend on the length of the lease contract and
the size of the property.
Rent ReviewIt is rather difficult to track and index rent growth in the market as developers usually keep rents confidential. However, developers in recent
years have been increasing rents by 5-10% annually.
Service Charges, Repairs and
Insurance
Service charges, or most commonly known as Common Use Service Area or CUSA fees in the Philippines, are usually payable in tenanted
buildings which covers management fees, security, cleaning, repair and landscaping of common parts and areas of the development. This is
usually excluded from rent and is calculated on a per square meter basis. The landlord is responsible for the repair of external or structural
matters in shopping centers and developments, while the tenants are responsible for internal repairs. Insurance for common parts of the
shopping center is also paid by the landlord but it is usually charged back to the tenant. The tenant is usually responsible for internal insurance.
Property Taxes and other costsVAT of 12% is payable on lease rentals in the Philippines and landlords shoulder the annual property taxes. In addition to the monthly rental, it
is common for mall operators to take a percentage of the retail tenant’s gross monthly revenues. This normally runs at about 3-10%.
Disposal of a LeaseRetail landlords, particularly those in the malls are hesitant to allow subleasing and normally keep strict control of retail tenants in their facilities.
In situations where suitable replacement tenants can be found then landlords will allow the lease to be assigned to the incoming tenants. Incases of pre-termination, penalties will apply.
Valuation Methods
Shops are usually valued on a zoning basis. Shops located on the ground floor are usually charged higher rents compared to those shops on
the upper floors. There will occasionally be local variations to these rates, which will also depend on the quality and functionality of the
accommodation, relative to the market norm.
LegislationA mandatory standard form of lease does not exist and each mall operator will have their own template. In addition, Documentary Stamps are
payable on notarized lease contracts in order to register lease contracts.
