MANILA, Philippines - An American heritage brand for classic styles with a modern twist (Cole Haan) and a favored Italian bags and luggage brand (Brics) recently opened in Cebu to the delight of local shoppers.

In spite of having already created a strong presence in the local market, Cole Haan has, for the longest time,  concentrated its presence in Metro Manila. This is why the brand felt that it was high time it catered to its market down south through the opening of its first Visayas-based store.

As for Italian brand Brics, whose entry in the country has been well received by shoppers, the opportunity to open a store in Cebu has also been a welcome move. This is thanks to the brand’s signature products that are perfect for everyday use and travel.

To mark this big first for the two brands, a special event was held at the Ayala Center Cebu shopping center, which was attended by style setters and fans of the two brands down South.

All guests were all smiles as they enjoyed the festivities while perusing the wide selection of items from the two brands’ latest collections.
