Outsourcing, ESL Firms Drive Office Demand in Cebu, Says Colliers

Outsourcing companies and English as a Second Language (ESL) centers will continue to drive office demand in Cebu, according to real estate consultancy Colliers International.

According to Joey Bondoc, Colliers International senior manager, the Cebu Business Park (CBP) and Cebu IT Park (CITP), and nearby areas, have witnessed huge demand for office space, with vacancy rates in the first quarter of this year ranging from as low as 0.6% in CBP to 7.4% in CITP.
