Primer Group bags honors at Filipino Retailer Awards

MANILA, Philippines - The Primer Group did not shy away from the spotlight this year as it bagged honors once again at the 16th Outstanding Filipino Retailer Awards held recently at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Ortigas, Pasig.

Philippine Retailers Association president Frederick Go headlined the event and delivered inspiring and powerful news about the Philippine retail scene, including the extensive growth rate recorded by industry that paved the way for the country to be dubbed as the new tiger of Asia and the only Asian country upgraded by International Monetary Fund.

Res/Toe/Run, now a Hall of Fame awardee, took the award in the Shoes, Bags and Apparel (medium category) while BratPack was also hailed as finalist in the same category.

R.O.X. was awarded as finalist in the Category Killer, and The North Face debuted this year as the winner in the Foreign Brand Retailer (small category).
