The newest store of TOMS Philippines recently launched in Glorietta 3 unveiling their environmental advocacies for the year 2023—remains to be at the feet of the people who make an impact on the ground.
“A simple canvas slip-on shoe started it all. But more than just a fashion statement, TOMS shoes are made for moving forward. As we open another store, we feel more committed and energized to help communities that directly affect bigger causes. Today is a celebration of the community’s accomplishments and active passion to spark change. Toms is taking a stand for a cleaner and greener future, and that’s where we want to focus this coming year,” says Mr. Carlo Pulinni, Owner of Toms Philippines and Chief Operating Officer of Trimark Group Holdings.
1/3 of Profits to Grassroots Good
Since TOMS was established in 2006 with a big hit in the Original Alpargata line, the globally-renowned brand vowed to invest one-third of its profits in grassroots good—people and communities taking direct action to particular issues that ripples groundbreaking effects to the world.
As TOMS conquered the stylish yet practical fashion scene in the Philippines in 2018, the company also started programs supporting local groups, sustainability efforts, and various advocacies locally. This coming year, the company is set off to launch activities on the conservation of marine biodiversity and terrestrial wildlife, coastal clean-up, recycling drives, and reforestation initiatives.
The launch of this new store, by far the 15th nationwide, proved that these efforts are far from finished—TOMS continues to lead a generation that keeps us on our toes.
The Launch of Toms Glorietta 3
Hosted by KC Montero, the event in Glorietta 3 in Makati City was graced by the presence of celebrities and personalities who continuously believes in the vision of Toms: Wynwyn Marquez, Joj & Jai Agpangan, Mark Herras, Cesca Litton, Brent Javier, Gie Cayetano and many more!
The products have evolved from the Original Classic Alpargata line to sneakers, sandals, shirts, and other TOMS products for a laidback, casual, expressive, and sustainable lifestyle. Farah Models surely had the crowd raving with a fashion show rocking the latest designs of the iconic line!
The event went on with performances by the acoustic artist, Tricia Meraki, and a pop-pumped set by DJ Sigrid. Food and drinks flowed as celebrities and friends grabbed the chance to choose their favorite pair of shoes, sign-up for their chosen environmental advocacies, and get their creative juices running in a tote-painting activity.
Rallying, Outspoken and Optimistic
TOMS is not just about selling shoes—it strives and amplifies greater efforts for our community and the world supporting direct efforts that count for positive change. The products themselves are sustainable, durable, and classic in their own style—truly unwavering to constantly make a stand.
