Demand for backup office seen outside Metro

DEMAND for backup office space outside Metro Manila is emerging even if the national capital remains the top choice for businesses to locate in, a real estate consultancy firm said.

In a recent interview, Prime Philippines managing director Jet Yu told The Manila Times that some companies based in Manila are also looking at putting up another branch in locations outside of the country’s capital either for expansion purposes or to serve as an emergency office in times of calamities.
