EPSON’s Largest Plant in Asia Marks 30 Years in Batangas’ LIMA Estate

EPSON Precision Philippines Inc. (EPPI), the largest and pioneering locator in LIMA Estate, marks a significant milestone—30 years of successful operations that have not only fuelled the company’s growth but have also underscored the Philippines’ strategic position as a hub for high-value manufacturing.

Since establishing its operations in LIMA Estate in 1997, Epson has grown its footprint to become the company’s largest precision plant in Asia. Today, its 33-hectare facility in Batangas houses three expansive factory buildings and employs over 20,000 people—one of the largest employer bases in the region. From LIMA, Epson assembles a diverse range of products, including printers, scanners, and projectors, which are exported to Japan and distributed across Southeast Asia.

“EPPI’s continued operations in The Philippines is a measure of confidence in our economy and our people – as well as our ability to make your investments grow.”, said Philippine Economic Zone Authority Director General Tereso Panga “EPPI has injected PHP18.8 billion in investment and continues to innovate and develop cutting-edge products that we now see dominating global markets. We thank you and Seiko EPSON Corporation for your unwavering trust and confidence and support to our country and your contributions to our nation’s national progress.” he also shared.

LIMA Estate is the leading industrial-anchored development in the Philippines and Asia

LIMA Estate, a 1,000-hectare industrial-anchored estate developed and operated by Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates, is a PEZA-registered zone that supports 185 locators and 75,000 employees. It is also the first and largest development in the country to receive a 5-Star BERDE-District certification from the Philippine Green Building Council. Epson’s sustained growth highlights the critical role of Economic Estates like LIMA in enabling locators to scale confidently, operate efficiently, and create meaningful impact for decades.

“Epson Precision Philippines Inc. (EPPI) is proud to be part of the Philippine industrial landscape, and we remain committed to cultivating Philippine development through employment, environmental protection, and quality engagement,” said Yushie Irie, President of Epson Precision Philippines, Inc. “Let us work together to make EPPI not just a great company, but also an indispensable partner that contributes to Philippine society and for our customers. On this incredible milestone, we celebrate 30 years of excellence, innovation, and impact – together we will build on our legacy in shaping EPSON with pride and purpose,” he continued.

As Epson continues to expand its presence in the region, it contributes not only to the Philippines’ export economy but also to inclusive job creation and community development. Aboitiz InfraCapital remains committed, in close partnership with Director General Panga of PEZA, in enabling more locators like Epson to grow sustainably and build meaningful impact within and beyond the estate.

“EPSON’s 30-year journey at LIMA Estate is a powerful story of commitment, trust, and shared vision,” said Clifford Academia, Vice President for Operations at Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates. “They took a bold step as our pioneering locator, and today, they stand as one of the Philippines’ leading manufacturing success stories.
