Enduring legacy of countryside development

The upward trajectory of LGC's growth and expansion is testament to the enduring legacy of countryside development that LGC Chief Executive Officer Lisset Laus-Velasco attributes to the collective effort of the men and women that made LausGroup to what it is today.

"The LausGroup wouldn't be where it is today if not for the hard work and dedication of all our team members who have been with us from the very beginning. As we celebrate 45 years of the LausGroup, we strive to champion countryside development by expanding our network across all our lines of business to take both Central and Northern Luzon to greater heights," Laus-Velasco said.
