Launching a new business can be daunting, especially with the high costs of operating a physical space. Retail Lab provides a solution and helps kick off businesses.
For 15 years, Retail Lab has championed local and emerging brands, providing a platform for them to flourish. Founded by Claud Baron-Paulino and Rosanna Aranaz, the company has expanded beyond its retail stores with Soirée, a twice-yearly event at the Fifth at Rockwell. This highly anticipated shopping experience showcases the best of Filipino design and craftsmanship.
Soirée by Retail Lab, is their much-anticipated annual holiday shopping event bringing another space for brands to reach more people. It is happening on November 22 to 24, December 6-8, and December 14-15 at the Fifth in Rockwell.
This year’s Soirée is a shopper’s paradise, offering a diverse range of products from over 170 carefully curated brands. From fashion and accessories to homeware, food, and artisanal treats, there’s something for everyone.
“Soirée has always been more than just a shopping event. It’s a platform for Filipino creativity and a celebration of local businesses,” said Claud Baron-Paulino, co-founder of Retail Lab.
Brands had quickly flourished in the in-line store, online, and at the Bazaar- a true testament that there’s more opportunities for brands to grow.

“We’re excited to bring back this much-loved event and continue supporting the growth of our partner brands like Lola & Daisies, Gizmo Scout, Alexander Fragrance, Tutum, and Cafeno Manila”, Claud added.
Rosanna Aranaz, co-founder of Retail Lab, added, “We believe in the power of community and collaboration. Soirée is a testament to the strength of the Filipino entrepreneurial spirit. We’re proud to showcase the incredible talent and innovation of our local brands.”
