Wilcon Depot, the Philippines' home retail giant, opened its 2nd store in the province of Leyte located in Sitio Haubon, Brgy. Tambulilid, Ormoc City on June 11, 2021.

Ormoc is a first-class city that is home to the economic, cultural, commercial, and transportation hub of western Leyte. It is a fast-growing city and it is also on its way to becoming a more sustainable place.

Being the largest city and the second most populous one in the province are some of the reasons why Wilcon Depot chose this location as the 2nd branch in Leyte. This store aims to cater to the home improvement and building needs of the Ormoconans.

Wilcon Depot President and CEO Lorraine Belo-Cincochan shared that, "Wilcon Depot Ormoc is our third store to open this 2021. All homeowners and builders across the country can expect more store openings to be announced this year in fulfillment of our #FlyingHighto100 store expansion campaign, wherein we aim to have 100 stores nationwide by 2025, barring any unexpected external factors."

The opening day of the branch was celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Wilcon Depot President and CEO Lorraine Belo-Cincochan and SEVP-COO Rosemarie Bosch-Ong together with Ormoc City Mayor Richard Gomez, City Councilor Vincent Rama, and Eco Architect and Interior Designer James Jao.
