Fresh from celebrating its first year in the Philippines, Australia’s beloved home and lifestyle brand Anko is deepening its local footprint with the opening of its fifth store at Ayala Malls Feliz in Pasig City, signaling sustained growth and strong customer demand.
At approximately 1,570 square meters total area, the new branch showcases Anko’s signature magenta interiors and a thoughtfully curated range of signature magenta interiors and a thoughtfully curated range of collections, including home décor, bedding and linens, dining and kitchenware, beauty and vanity items, arts and crafts, pet essentials, and creative toys for kids.
During this holiday season, the store also serves as a one-stop destination for shoppers seeking on-trend, affordable gifts, complete with gift-wrapping stations to make Christmas shopping easier and more convenient for families.
“Entering the Philippines has been a strategic priority for Anko as part of our global expansion plans,” said Arjun Puri, CEO of Anko Global. “The Philippines represents one of our most dynamic markets globally, and this new store allows us to strengthen our footprint while delivering on our mission to make great design accessible to more homes worldwide.”
Building on this momentum, Lil Velis-Bowker, Chief Retail Officer of Anko Global, highlighted how Anko’s design-led philosophy and direct-to-consumer model continue to drive its global and Philippine operations.
“What makes Anko stand out is our commitment to thoughtful, design-led innovation at prices families can afford. Our global design team in Australia creates ranges with simplicity and purpose, ensuring every product adds real value to family life, and we see how strongly this philosophy resonates here. Through our direct-to-consumer model, we gain invaluable insights into how Filipino families live and what they love, which inform our product development worldwide,” she explained.
The addition of Ayala Malls Feliz reflects a strategically planned expansion, targeting high-growth residential corridors across Metro Manila.
In just one year, Anko has opened five stores in Metro Manila, including Ayala Malls TriNoma, Alabang Town Center, Manila Bay, and now Feliz, making great design accessible to more Filipino homes.
Beyond opening more stores, Anko is focused on nurturing its connection with customers through the Anko Club App, which has grown to over 36,000 members. The platform serves as a primary channel for gathering feedback and engaging directly with shoppers.
Anko also recently launched its lookbook (www.anko.com/ph/lookbook/), allowing customers to explore the latest collections and plan their in-store visits, blending convenience with the signature Anko experience.
