The addition of 7-Eleven ATMs complements LANDBANK’s own physical network of 678 Branches, 2,810 ATMs, and 58 Lending Centers as of end-April 2022.
The partnership forms part of LANDBANK’s commitment to provide wider access to its banking products and services nationwide, in line with serving the development requirements of various key economic sectors.

Burgos hold the memorandum of agreement for the AGRISENSO Lending Program partnership. Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) has partnered with SariSuki, a leading Philippine agritech startup, which aims to revolutionize the agricultural supply chain through the Bank’s AGRISENSO Lending Program.

Under the partnership, SariSuki will serve as the primary buyer of farmers' produce, integral to its mission of building a vertically integrated agriculture superhighway. Brian Cu, Co-founder and CEO of SariSuki, explained, “By providing a stable market, and technical support in farming, business management, and financial literacy, we address farmers’ key challenges. Backed by LANDBANK’s financing, we aim to uplift farmers' livelihoods, ensure business sustainability, and enhance food security. For its part, LANDBANK will be extending to eligible partners endorsed by SariSuki the AGRISENSO Lending Program that provides affordable financing to small farmers, Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs), and the whole agriculture value chain, aimed at bolstering nationwide food security and sufficiency. A key element of this partnership is SariSuki's commitment to directly pay the principal of farmers' loans to LANDBANK, allowing farmers to immediately profit from their earnings, providing financial relief, and encouraging reinvestment in their farms. The collaboration seeks to lower the cost of fresh produce by integrating SariSuki’s supply chain with an omni-channel demand network and sourcing directly from local farmers. Through these efforts, SariSuki is driving meaningful change in the agricultural sector, ensuring the abundance, accessibility, and affordability of wet market goods. The partnership also aims to expand SariSuki’s network by working with LANDBANK’s Lending Centers in key agricultural regions like Nueva Ecija, Quezon, Laguna, and Cavite welcoming new farmers while continuing to support existing members. Since the launch of the AGRISENSO Lending Program this year, LANDBANK has supported over 1,766 borrowers nationwide with P272 million in approved loans. The Program is being offered at the Bank’s “Bilis Ipon: Digital Financial Inclusion Caravan” rollouts, which has brought banking and financing services closer to farmers in 17 underserved areas nationwide, including most recently Himamaylan City, Negros Occidental. Together, LANDBANK and SariSuki are building an innovative ecosystem that integrates financial support, market access, and technical assistance to uplift farmers and strengthen the agricultural sector.
