Logistics solutions and supply chain management DB Schenker has signed an agreement with AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp. to lease the latter’s ready-built facility in ALogis Calamba in Laguna.

The logistics company is set to take up 18,000 sqm of space, primarily for contract logistics servicing an automotive company. The area has already been turned over and is expected to commence operations by June 2023. The ceremonial signing with DB Schenker marks both groups’ first partnership together.

DB Schenker Contract Logistics director Irma Diaz-Guevara said: “ALogis is viewed by DB Schenker as one of our strategic partners in this market. The Ayala Land brand is synonymous with excellence, quality and reliability, consistent with DB Schenker’s values as a global organization. We are confident that ALogis can build strategic facilities that intend to showcase the quality of operations of DB Schenker in contract logistics.”

“ALogis was meant to support and energize businesses like DB Schenker. As we continue to create effective and impactful solutions in real estate and supply chains, respectively, we look forward to a great synergy that benefits communities,” shares ALLHC chief operating officer Patrick Avila. He continued: “We are very thankful to DB Schenker for choosing ALogis as a trusted partner, and we look forward to serving them as one of our valued tenants.”

The two companies are united in being the frontrunners in the logistics space, sourcing and providing the ideal facilities to support the growing Philippine economy.
