Property Company of Friends, Inc. (Profriends) reinforces its commitment to building communities as it sustains its partnership with Archipelago Builders Corporation (ABC), a Category AAA contractor, for the ongoing development of Westwind.
The renewed partnership was formalized during the contract signing between the two institutions, signaling the construction of Westwind’s second building. This marked a significant milestone for both Profriends and ABC, as they collaborate to deliver high-quality, sustainable living spaces for Filipino families. Westwind, located within Profriends’ flagship township project Lancaster New City, represents the developer’s evolution from traditional house-and-lot developments into integrated, modern communities designed for today’s urban lifestyle.
Amid the continuing challenges brought about by the Middle East crisis, ABC and Profriends remain firmly on track, making the construction of the second building a reality. “We planned it well from the start, including securing materials ahead of time. We also have a good team who shares the same commitment to deliver what was promised. Another key success factor is our strong partnership with ABC,” says Profriends President Kathleen Choa. This dedication is evident in proactive efforts ensuring that construction moves forward steadily and remains resilient in the face of external pressures. “It is a type of partnership built on good communication, trust, and a shared vision. We do not only talk about the issues, but we solve them together. That is what partnership is all about,” added Choa.
For ABC’s part, Chief Operating Officer Paulo Lorenzo Pe expressed how he takes pride in the Westwind project. “Some companies— the better ones, work very hard to bring the cost down. And that is what Profriends is, as the company strives to make housing affordable to the families it serves. This gives more meaning and passion to what we do. So, the team and I are very proud to continue to work hard,” shares Pe.
At the heart of this progress is a shared commitment—to deliver what has been promised to future Westwind homeowners. “I have full trust with Profriends…for our part, we will do our best to keep our partnership,” added Pe.
The continued collaboration is anchored on mutual trust and a strong track record. Founded in 1965, ABC has grown into one of the country’s reputable AAA contractors, capable of handling large-scale infrastructure and building projects across various sectors. Its decades of experience complement Profriends’ mission of “creating communities and transforming lives,” ensuring that each development meets both structural excellence and community-focused design.
As Profriends continues to grow and diversify its developments, its ongoing partnership with ABC reflects a shared commitment to building communities that truly serve people. More than just constructing homes, this collaboration focuses on creating safe, vibrant, and future-ready neighborhoods where Filipino families can thrive—spaces designed to adapt to their changing needs and support a better quality of life for years to come.
