Greenfield Automotive Park

Greenfield Auto Park(GAP) is the first and only automotive park in the Philippines. It is an industrial estate and a special economic zone in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. It comprises 65 hectares of land, with several sections available for manufacturing and office use. It has complete power, telecommunications, water supply, waste management and transportation facilities.

Greenfield Development Corporation realizes the potential of the auto industry to act as a catalyst for other industries to locate at GAP. Even though GAP was essentially designed for enterprises in the automotive industry, it is also ideal for other companies which are in need of a favorable production setting befitting a world-class industrial park.

Locators

Ford Motor Company, one of the world’s largest car manufacturers, is an anchor locator at GAP. Ford is now enjoying GAP’s accessible location, complete facilities, and incentives under the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA).

The Site

GAP is strategically located at Sta. Rosa, Laguna, approximately 40 kilometers south of Metro Manila, and just a 45-minute drive from the Makati Central Business District and the Ninoy Aquino International Airport. This location places GAP in the center of the Cavite/Laguna/Batangas/Rizal/Quezon (CALABARZON) region. The CALABARZON has evolved to be the Philippines’ prime industrial growth area, with fully developed road networks and commercial areas. Sta. Rosa in particular has developed into a major business hub of the region, home to several major manufacturing companies such as Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Coca-Cola and National Panasonic.
