"We are proud of SPi for continuously being included in this prestigious list of leading global BPO providers. We are equally pleased to see that SPi has been included in the "Leader, Emerging Asian Markets" for the first time. Our high ranking in this category is a testament to our ability to compete with other large global outsourcing companies in terms of scope of service, quality and cost effectiveness," said SPi chairman Ray Espinosa.
The Philippines remains SPi's major hub of operations and has 12 locations in Manila, Laguna, Cebu, Dumaguete, Clark and Iloilo and over 7,000 employees nationwide, Espinosa added.
