ANGELES CITY – Fashionistas, rejoice! Japan’s foremost “lifewear” company, UNIQLO, is opening its store at the SM City Clark Friday, November 29.
This, as the fashion brand announced that it will launch seven new stores in the Philippines by the Summer of 2014. UNIQLO at SM City Clark is the company’s ninth store in the Philippines and second in Pampanga, after UNIQLO SM City Pampanga which opened early this year.
The mushrooming of its stores – from its first at SM Mall of Asia only last year – is manifest of the triumph of the UNIQLO invasion of the local fashion scene. Filipinos readily took to the brand for its chic appeal that runs across all age groups, as well as for the quality of its materials.
Not to mention the trendiness of its stores and friendly staff. After SM Mall of Asia, UNIQLO opened five stores at The Block-SM North EDSA, SM Aura, SM Pampanga, SM Fairview and Glorietta 5. Just recently it launched its stores at SM Megamall and Robinsons Place Manila.
Before the end of the year, UNIQLO will open at SM BF Paranaque, and SM Dasmarinas. By August 2014, it will
be the turn of SM South Mall, Eastwood City, Gateway Mall, and SM Santa Rosa to have theirs. The company envisions several additional locations to launch within the year, and given this expansion, is set to hire hundreds of store associates.
Enthused Katsumi Kubota, UNIQLO Philippines chief operating offi cer: ”We are confident that UNIQLO is set
for continued rapid growth in the Philippines, and our expansion is rooted in our sincere desire to bring the joy of wearing truly great clothes to Filipinos.” Experience UNIQLO first hand and get your fashion fix at any of its stores nationwide.
