CLARK FREEPORT — Semiconductor and electronics exports from Clark reached $3.8 billion in 2025, underscoring the freeport’s role in global supply chains and its position as a hub for high-value manufacturing.
To sustain growth, Clark Development Corp. convened semiconductor and electronics firms on July 7 to discuss workforce, importation, and regulatory issues.
CDC president and CEO Atty. Agnes VST Devanadera said inputs will be used to improve services, while policy and regulatory issues needing national government action will be pursued in ongoing talks with agencies.
“As estate manager and investment promotion agency, we must be sensitive to the needs of our locators. We will continue working with national government partners to address issues that affect operations and investments,” she said.
Devanadera also presented CDC’s Red Carpet Services— programs that streamline transactions, strengthen workforce development, and support expansion. These include the Business One-Stop Shop, Town and Gown Program, Business Interdependence Program, One-Stop Processing on Wheels, and auto-approval for qualified import and export transactions.
Clark hosts semiconductor and electronics firms that reinforce its role in global supply chains. The CDC chief said continuing industry dialogues aim to sustain investor confidence, improve government responsiveness, and position Clark as the country’s model freeport and economic zone by 2040.
