History
The first SM Supermall—SM City North Edsa—was opened in 1985 and started the Philippine “malling” phenomenon[[Citing sources citation needed]]. Each Supermall features shopping (both local and international brands), restaurants and fastfood dining, amusement (bowling lanes, ice skating, theme rides and games), leisure (as many as 12 cinemas under one roof), and convention and trade exhibition centers.
Located in several cities and areas in Metro Manila, as well as major provincial cities, each SM Supermall is easily accessible and situated by places of public interest (churches, schools, major roads and highways, etc).
The first ice skating rink in the Philippines was opened in SM Megamall in 1991. With this first, SM introduced Filipinos to an art-sport otherwise unpopular in tropical countries. Today, Filipino ice skating delegations have participated and excelled in international arenas[[Citing sources citation needed]], crediting their exposure and excellence to the SM rinks[[Citing sources citation needed]]. The SM Supermalls also house 146 cinemas (with over 103,708 total seating capacity), making SM Prime Holdings, Inc. the largest cinema operator in the country.
As of 2006, SM Prime Holdings, Inc. is embarking on an aggressive expansion program within the next five years. In preparation for this expansion, SM Prime Holdings, Inc. has amassed a total landbank of 96.6 hectares in 10 strategic locations. Included are attractive properties in provinces where urbanization is steadily underway, such as Cabanatuan, Pangasinan and Bulacan.
By 2006, six additional SM Supermalls will be operational, including the Mall of Asia which has opened recently. This is SM Prime Holdings, Inc.’s most extensive project to date.
The SM Group has engaged in other retail endeavors through other SM- related companies such as, among others: Watsons Personal Care Stores, Inc., a joint-venture with Hutchison-Whampoa Ltd. of Hong Kong; International Toy World (Toy Kingdom); Ace Hardware Philippines, a joint-venture with Ace Hardware Corporation USA; Star Appliance Center; Surplus Shop; Sports Central; Baby & Co.; Home World; and Our Home. The amusement is only Quantum Amusement.
