Golden MV Holdings was incorporated on November 16, 1982. It initially began solely as a company which develops and manages columbaria in the Philippines.[1]The first Golden Haven Memorial Park was established in 1984 in a 2 hectares (4.9 acres) lot in Las Piñas. The enterprise is associated with businessman and politician Manny Villar.[3]
In 2016, Golden Haven Memorial Parks, Inc. was listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange and dropped "Memorial Parks" from its name.[4]
In 2017, the company expanded to the mass housing after it started acquiring Bria Homes Inc. for around ₱3 billion from Cambridge Group, Inc. which is also a Villar company.[5][6] It renamed itself from Golden Haven Inc. to Golden Bria Holdings in the following year. It adopted its current name in 2020.[6]
In October 2024, Golden MV obtained several lots of lands which will be part of the Villar City development.[6] It has surpassed SM Investments and SM Prime in market value at ₱1.29 trillion.[7][8] The following month, it was announced that the company will be renamed Villar Land Holdings Corp.[6]
