In line with its strategy of being the first major operator to venture into emerging economic hubs, Robinsons Land Corporation, the property development arm of the Gokongwei group, opened the first full-service mall in Valencia City, Bukidnon, on December 12, 2018.
According to RLC President and CEO Frederick D. Go, “Robinsons Place Valencia is our 51stmall nationwide and our seventh in Mindanao. We will continue to open more malls in areas that have strong underserved market demand and where we can be a catalyst for economic growth.”
Robinsons Place Valencia comes after RLC’s successful mall openings in Cagayan de Oro, Davao, General Santos, Butuan, Tagum, and Iligan.
Located in Barangay Bagontaas, the three-storey Robinsons Place Valencia sits on an 8-hectare lot along the busy Sayre Highway.
Throughout the sprawling structure, the mall will house a mix of home-grown labels, global brands, and local businesses, with JG Summit Holdings affiliates Robinsons Department Store, Robinsons Supermarket, Robinsons Appliances, Handyman, Daiso Japan, Robinsons Bank, and South Star Drug as anchor tenants.

Shoppers will be spoiled for choice with the mall’s fashion boutiques, home and lifestyle stores, and sporting goods outlets, as well as with its IT and Gadgets Zone. There is a health and wellness center for pampering and amusement centers for kids.
The mall has a wide array of dining options including fast-food and casual dining restaurants, coffee shops, a food gallery, and novelty food shops. For the convenience of nearby residents and shoppers, Robinsons Place Valencia also boasts specialty service shops and banks.
“With the opening of Robinsons Place Valencia, people from Bukidnon need not travel to Cagayan de Oro or Davao for a complete shopping, entertainment, and dining experience,” said Go. “The mall is seen to also attract residents of nearby towns and cities throughout the province,” he added.
Since attaining cityhood in 2001, Valencia City in Bukidnon is seeing rapid development matched by its solid economic growth. It is recognized as Bukidnon’s center of trade and commerce due to its strategic location right in the heart of Mindanao.
