Henry Sy, The Visionary Behind SM Prime

Henry Sy, recognized as the Father of Modern Philippine Retail, was driven by a profound desire to enhance the Filipino consumer experience. His ambition led to the establishment of SM Prime Holdings, which became the largest mall operator in the Philippines.

In 1958, the first Shoemart store was opened, introducing features like air-conditioning and uniformed sales staff to create an aspirational shopping environment. The creation of SM City North Edsa transformed the retail landscape, evolving into a landmark destination.

The next generation of the Sy family expanded this vision, developing the SM Mall of Asia Complex, a master-planned community that includes various amenities. Today, SM Prime continues to embody Henry Sy's legacy by committing to innovative and sustainable developments that improve Filipino lives.
