Cebu City, Philippines – Last July 2024, Cebu Exchange proudly welcomed Fuentes & Co. Certified Public (FCO) Accountants to its thriving community of innovative and forward-looking businesses. This partnership is a convergence of two organizations dedicated to excellence, sustainability, and fostering a dynamic work environment.

The collaboration was formally established during a signing ceremony attended by Arthaland Executives Oliver Chan (Senior Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer) and Anna Marco (Managing Director for Commercial and Office Sales and Leasing), alongside Marben Fuentes (Managing Partner) and Soana Mari Fuentes (Partner for Operations). For FCO, this new chapter reflects their commitment to growth and aligns perfectly with their values as they approach their 10th anniversary.
