Business in Metro Manila

Where Metro Manila businesses need working capital

Each part of the metro ties up cash in a different place: in stock on a wholesaler's shelves, in post-dated checks, or in invoices to corporate buyers. Here is where it usually sits, and the financing that can free it up.

  • Divisoria and Binondo, Manila

    Divisoria's streets each keep their own trade, from plastics, packaging and ready-to-wear on Ylaya to sewing supplies on Tabora and seasonings around El Cano, while Binondo has been a trading district since the Spanish era. Wholesalers here sell to resellers from across Luzon, often against post-dated checks.

    Financing that can fit

  • Makati, BGC and Ortigas Center

    The business districts are where corporate buyers sit. Their suppliers (caterers, printers, fit-out contractors, IT resellers, facilities and manpower firms) deliver against purchase orders and wait on invoice terms.

    Financing that can fit

  • The northern industrial belt

    Valenzuela's food, plastics and textile plants, Malabon's industrial zones and the Navotas Fish Port Complex, where commercial fishing boats land their catch for the metro's markets. Producers here buy raw materials in bulk and sell to distributors who pay later.

    Financing that can fit

  • The bay area and the south

    Entertainment City and Aseana in Parañaque, the Mall of Asia complex in Pasay and Filinvest City in Alabang: hotels, integrated resorts, malls and offices that buy from local suppliers on terms.

    Financing that can fit

  • Quezon City's markets and IT parks

    The Balintawak wholesale markets receive farm produce bound for the metro's palengkes, Cubao's Araneta City is one of the city's commercial centres, and Eastwood City is a PEZA IT park whose offices buy services on account.

Business permit

The business permit in Metro Manila

In Metro Manila, the Mayor's permit comes from each city's business permits office, usually called the BPLO.

Every city in Metro Manila, and Pateros, issues its own Mayor's permit. Under the Ease of Doing Business Act (RA 11032), each runs a Business One-Stop Shop, and most now take new applications and renewals online, with one unified form for the business permit and the clearances that go with it.

Renewals come at the start of the year: the Local Government Code sets local business taxes as payable in the first 20 days of January, and city councils often extend that by ordinance. The city pages below name each city's office and online system.

You don't need a permit to apply with Datung. It's one of the optional documents: add it if you have it, and we'll ask during review if we need it. Offices and online systems change, so confirm the details with the LGU before you go.
