Source-derived summary

SM Nuvali is an under-construction shopping mall located along the Santa Rosa–Tagaytay Road in the Nuvali estate in Barangay Santo Domingo, Santa Rosa, Laguna. It is the fifth SM Supermall in the province of Laguna and the second SM Supermall in Santa Rosa, after SM City Santa Rosa. The mall is owned by SM Prime Holdings.

It is slated to open in November 27, 2026. Once opened, it will be the largest mall in the city and in the province, with a gross floor area of approximately 190,000 m2 (2,000,000 sq ft).

Etymology

The mall was previously referred to as SM Santa Rosa Yulo or simply SM Yulo, derived from its location on the former Yulo Estate, an agricultural property associated with José Yulo, who acquired the nearby Canlubang Sugar Estate in 1948.

The project also carried the "Premier" branding, appearing as SM Santa Rosa Yulo Premier and SM Yulo Premier, until SM discontinued the branding across its malls in 2023. It was also informally referred to as SM City Santa Rosa 2, being the second SM Supermall in Santa Rosa.

In 2025, social media posts from construction workers at the site suggested that the mall may be named SM Neo Verde, a name derived from "new green" or "modified green" in Romance languages. However, this name has not been officially confirmed.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “under-construction shopping mall in Santa Rosa, Laguna, Philippines” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q138565385. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2026, 1948, 2023 and 2025.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
