“Seeing how Filipinos truly love the brand, we really see a big potential for Arabica here in the Philippines. We are here to stay and we have great plans of increasing the presence of Arabica in different local destinations and iconic areas. But more than our locations, our main focus remains to be ensuring that the quality of our coffee remains consistent in every store,” Tamura shares.

 

 

 

If you want to keep Arabica with you wherever you go, you can purchase one-of-a-kind merch from the store, like a pair of immaculately white sneakers, a variety of super cool tumblers and totes, plus many more.
