MREIT, Inc., the REIT company of the country’s largest office landlord Megaworld Corporation, registered a distributable income of P2.8-billion in 2023, up by a strong 13% from the P2.5-billion recorded in 2022. Revenues, likewise, grew by 14% year-on-year to P4.2-billion, fueled by the full-year contribution of the additional four Grade-A office towers from January 2023.
