2022 Marks Most Profitable Year for Forest Lake
Forest Lake’s journey to success has been nothing short of remarkable. Just in the past year, the company achieved record-breaking revenue, surpassing the P1.234 billion mark in Central Luzon alone. For the whole country, the figure stands at P2.17 billion, an 18 percent increase in revenue compared to the previous 12 months.
This makes 2022 Forest Lake’s “most profitable year to date.” The company also reported a net income of P527.78 million for 2022, which is a 12 percent increase compared to 2021 numbers.
