Golden Haven Zamboanga Crematorium has been named Gold Winner in the Outstanding Developer (Specialized / Purpose-Built) Category at the last prestigious FIABCI Property and Real Estate Excellence Awards 2026, held at Solaire Resort North in Quezon City.
The recognition highlights the projectâs exemplary contribution to specialized real estate development, particularly in advancing modern, dignified, and culturally sensitive memorial care services in the region.
The Golden Haven Zamboanga Crematorium is a purpose-built facility designed to deliver professional, respectful, and environmentally controlled cremation services for families in Zamboanga City and nearby communities. Completed in 2024, the single-phase development features a thoughtfully designed structure housing key operational spaces, including a welcoming lobby, viewing rooms, crematorium facilities, and essential service areas.
Strategically located in an accessible urban setting near hospitals, schools, and commercial centers, the facility ensures convenience for families during moments of need while maintaining a calm and private environment for remembrance and reflection. Positioned beside Golden Haven Memorial Parks â Zamboanga, the crematorium forms part of a growing integrated memorial care estate designed to elevate end-of-life services in the region.

It reflects Golden Havenâs commitment to inclusivity, allowing for diverse cultural, religious, and personal preferences in honoring loved ones.
Beyond its service impact, the facility also contributes to local economic development through job creation and skills enhancement opportunities. Its completion demonstrates strong project execution, efficient timeline delivery, and a clear long-term vision for sustainable memorial care development.
