vitality then infusing its unique version of serenity. At Villa Del Rio

elegant lobby is contrasted by the hominess of oak flooring in the

Company History
| 1992 |
CEI is incorporated in June 1, primarily as a joint effort between Primary Structures Corporation (PSC) and MATIMCO,
two established Cebu-based enterprises—the former an important force in
construction, the latter a leader in the lumber and wood industry. Both
companies envision high-quality but reasonably priced low- to
middle-cost housing developments for Cebuano dwellers.
The
Villa del Rio Project—a four-phase, 400-unit development spread out
over five hectares—is successfully launched. The five types of housing
units (Palacios, Turriano , Hidalgo , Amorsolo, and Sedeño) generate
exceptional word-of-mouth, especially due to its pre-cast concrete
technology and distinctive subdivision layout and affordable prices. |
| |
|
| 1993 |
CEI forms a subsidiary, Common Bacayan Development Corp (CBDC), to develop Phases 2 and 3 of Villa del Rio . CEI remains the developer of Phases 1 and 4; it also retains overall marketing duties for the entire project. |
| |
|
| 1996 |
PSC assumes full ownership of CEI as MATIMCO divests to focus on its core businesses. The new CEI board decides to develop high-rise condominiums for urban dwellers. The undertaking complements CEI's existing subdivision projects. Thus, the reorganization results in the following corporate structure:
- East Apex Properties, Inc. (EAPI) — incorporated to focus on vertical development (high-rises) and high-end housing units
- CBDC — responsible for horizontal development (subdivisions)
- CEI — becomes the marketing arm of the group
|
| |
|
| 1997 |
The model unit of East Aurora Tower is unveiled as part of an 18-storey residential condominium project developed by EAPI.
By situating itself in a prime location at Villa Aurora, Mabolo, Cebu
City —an accessible site located in a good neighborhood— East Aurora
Tower , with its four parking lots, is able to distinguish itself from
the construction frenzy of the time. |
| |
|
| 1998 |
East
Aurora Tower is completed despite a regional economic crisis the
previous year that forces other developers to delay or altogether
abandon their projects.
Villa del Rio 2 at Pit-os, Talamban, Cebu City, developed by CBDC, is launched. The development comprises over 250 housing units spread over four hectares of land covering five phases. |
| |
|
| 1999 |
Within a year of the Villa del Rio 2 launch, nearly 80% of the Villa del Rio 2 housing units are sold.
Riding
the momentum of the success of Villa del Rio I and II, Garden Bloom
Acres, with over 300 housing units spread out over a five-hectare
property in Pitogo, Consolacion, Cebu , is successfully launched. It is
an impressive display of versatility by CEI as an
entirely new market is tapped with the unveiling of Garden Bloom Acres.
More affordable than the Villa del Rio developments, Garden Bloom Acres
demonstrates that CEI is equally adept at building both middle- and high-end housing communities. |
