SM Supermalls transforms malls into sustainable, innovative, community-centric spaces.
SM Supermalls is reimagining customer experience by creating more spaces for leisure and interaction, and celebrating local communities.
“The history of SM Supermalls is one that has been built on innovation and change to serve the needs of millions of Filipinos,” says Mr. Steven Tan, president.
“Our goal is to create spaces that not only meet the needs of our customers but also anticipate and evolve with them. This new era is about forging deeper connections with our community and ensuring that every visit to our malls is meaningful and enriching,” Tan added.
3 ways SM Supermalls is transforming its malls for the Filipino community
Greener spaces
A key feature of the bold redevelopments of SM Megamall, SM Mall of Asia, SM City Bacolod, SM City Cebu, and SM City Iloilo is the integration of lush indoor gardens and the development of more outdoor greeneries.
Optimized sustainability features
SM’s proven sustainable solutions, such as water recycling and treatment, solar energy, natural lighting, and deck landscaping – which are already present in almost all SM malls – are continually improved.
Community-centric designs
In its new generation of malls, designs are influenced by the communities they serve. In the soon-to-open SM City Laoag, the inabel weave, a traditional Ilocano handwoven fabric, is reflected in its sky roof. The upcoming SM City La Union embodies the province’s youthful beach vibe. Additionally, spaces are created exclusively for local brands, celebrating and supporting the communities’ entrepreneurs.
In Iloilo City, the local government is raising the bar in uplifting the lives of many Ilonggos with the transformation of the city’s public markets into resilient and sustainable ones.
Ensuring the public safety, efficiency of the market, and resilience for the future, Iloilo City government and SM Prime is redevoloping Iloilo City’s markets with modern facilities and sustainability features maximizing the use of energy, water and renewable sources, with its solar power panels, water catchment system and solid waste management, providing its vendors, customers and other stakeholders an elevated overall market experience.
Once the Iloilo Central and Terminal markets are fully modernized, the public can look forward to clean comfort rooms, more parking slots and better operational spaces with greater accessibility to daily essential necessities, promoting economic, social and environmental sustainability.
