Megawide bags 5th Landers construction contract

Engineering and infrastructure firm Megawide Construction Corporation has bagged the contract to construct the newest Landers Store which will be built in Aseana City. 

In a statement, the firm said the project will further bolster Megawide’s class as the premier builder of these modes of high-density, shopping-center type grocery stores.  

Landers Aseana will be a 18,710.91-sq.m. development located inside Aseana Business Park in Parañaque City and will be Megawide’s fifth undertaking for the Landers brand with Southeast Asia Retail, Inc. (SEARI).

This comes after Landers’ membership-shopping outlets in Alabang, Muntinlupa City; Balintawak, Quezon City; Arcovia, Pasig City; and Otis, Manila.

“Our foray into these kinds of modern, designed-for-convenience facilities showcase our portfolio’s breadth and long experience in the commercial segment,” said Megawide Chief Operating Officer Frederick Tan.

He noted that, “Our partnership with SEARI is a testimony to our workmanship and delivery, anchored on our excellent track-record and state-of-the-art construction solutions.”

Megawide will use its proprietary brand of precast technology in building Landers Aseana, which will be composed of up to 80 percent precast materials from half slabs, footing tie and intermediate beams, girders, columns and retaining walls.



This modified proportion is a marked increase from the previous successful builds – where 20 percent precast was incorporated – and expected to streamline Landers Aseana’s construction, offering quick project turnaround time, reduced long-term costs, and environmentally friendly processes.

“Precast will be vital to meet SEARI’s requirement for a December 2024 soft launch of its newest branch, in time for this year’s Yuletide season. Facilitating a shorter timetable will significantly enhance our brands,” said Tan.

He added that, “For Megawide, this will again demonstrate the value of services we offer while for our partner, this will resonate to their customers who will have an added reason to enjoy their holiday shopping more come Christmas time with the new Landers Aseana as a present.”

Landers Aseana’s construction was set in motion with a ceremonial concrete pouring on March 20 and is expected to be completed by March 2025.
