New City Commercial Corporation Malls or NCCC Malls, commonly known as just NCCC are shopping malls owned by the New City Commercial Corporation (NCCC) Group. The company is founded and is based in Davao City, Philippines.

History

[edit]

NCCC began as a textile store in Davao City during the 1950s by Lim Tian Siu. The store eventually evolved into a general merchandise store selling basic necessities and other items like shoes and jewelry.

In 1978, the family opened the first NCCC Supermarket and Department Store at Ramon Magsaysay Avenue and named it New City Commercial Center.

By 1987, NCCC opened its Tagum City branch.

Then in 1991, NCCC opened its first mall in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan. This was also the first mall in the island.

In 1999, the company expanded its branch in Tagum City with the opening of NCCC Mall Tagum.[1]

In 2019, NCCC was able to acquire the first mall in Davao City, the Victoria Plaza, which started operations in 1993.

Within 30 years NCCC has become a conglomerate. It has diversified into department stores with their NCCC Department Stores, breads and pastries with Breadfactory, health products and pharmacies with HB1, hardware and home fixtures with Hardwaremaxx, and movies and theater NCCC Cinemas.[2]
