Robinsons Cybergate Davao



Davao is certainly the place for shopping as it offers a rich variety of the old wares mixed with the new ones. You can go to a local market nearby and find beautiful traditional handicrafts, or to a local mall and find branded imported items, electronics and clothes. Davao shopping centers offer huge selections of various products. And, the Robinsons Cybergate Davao is a welcome addition to the ever growing shopping centers in the city.

Robinsons Cybergate Davao is a 2-storey shopping center that sits on a 10,660 square meter lot along J. P. Laurel Avenue, Lanang, Davao City with a parking space that can accommodate 100 vehicles. While Robinsons Cybergate Davao is small to be considered a mall, it nevertheless houses a number of stores. It has a supermarket, a grocery, a drug store, a beauty salon and health spa, cafés, restaurants, food outlets, retail and specialty stores, a BPO facility which is said to be the biggest in Mindanao, medical clinics and other offices. And, because of its small size, families can truly enjoy shopping in a quiet and not so crowded ambiance of the place. Robinsons Cybergate Davao opened its doors to the public in May 8, 2009, and is considered to be Robinsons Land Corporation’s first commercial center in Mindanao of this format and setting.

    1. Hi Bongskie09, it is so great to chance upon a fellow adjuster particularly from Henry Hunter Bayne, with which my late father served for so many fruitfull years. In fact, my father, Atty. Jaime L. Battad, Sr., was once the Branch Manager of HHB-Davao back in the 1950s. He resigned from HHB in 1972, his last post therefrom being Executive Vice President, and set-up his own on the same year, the now long defunct CBGS Adjusters, Inc. where I also served in the same capacity as a multi-line adjuster. I was hired by Esteban Adjuster & Valuers, Inc. of Manila and headed our Davao branch office, concurrently as its Regional Manager for Mindanao in 1997 until my resignation in 2000. I have since retired and went back to Manila but I am hoping to take up residence again in Davao in the not too distant future. While I mostly rely now with my friends from Davao on updates there, I will be more than happy to update you with fresh posts on Robinson Cybergate as you requested.

  3. I am glad to saw your blog and I really appreciated what you did. Malls are not just for shopping and it evolved into places where you can enjoy a variety of activities. Moreover, malls are economic symbols of a city. Thanks for this information about the Robinsons Cybergate Davao. Hopefully I will visit this entire Robinson mall in Davao someday.
