Publicly listed since 1994, it now owns and operates world-class destination malls – all designed towards giving customers a unique experience.

SM Seaside City Cebu, the largest mall in the Visayas and Mindanao area and one of the country’s biggest malls, anchors the company’s operations in the region.
In Mindanao, SM CDO Downtown Premier is the province’s largest premier shopping and lifestyle destination.
More than size, these malls offer innovative features like the utilization of green technology to support environmental sustainability, better community growth and township planning as well as providing facilities for persons with disability and special needs.

SM Supermalls has changed the landscape of shopping, dining, entertainment, space design and architecture in the country as it continues to innovate and grow in size, sophistication, concepts, and environmental sustainability. In less than three decades, it now operates 74 malls nationwide, a testament to its commitment to reaching out to all Filipinos and providing the one-stop concept that SM has always been known for.
Through the malls, SM Prime serves as a major source of employment in the Philippines and provides economic mobility opportunities for its citizens.
SM Prime has several premium malls, three of which are in Metro Manila’s tourism and trade hot spots – SM Megamall in Mandaluyong City, SM North EDSA in Quezon City and SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City. These three malls have a total GFA of 1.4 million square meters and attract a daily footfall of nearly 10% of Metro Manila’s population.

The company also recognizes growth opportunities in the metropolis especially in operating community malls. In view of this, SM Prime recently entered into a joint venture with Walter Mart, a community shopping center operator which has malls across Luzon.
Through its integrated approach towards mall management, SM Prime has provided Filipinos with many ‘firsts’ – such as the first Olympic-sized ice skating rink and one of the world’s largest IMAX screens with a height of an eight-storey building. SM malls have become a one-stop destination that caters to families, students, tour groups, and foreign and local business delegates. These malls also offer a wide array of services that include wellness facilities, health clinics and even government services.
