I am sure many Davaoenos are excited to have UNIQLO now in Davao City! They are also opening their second branch in Davao on June 2 at SM City Davao! Plus another one in Mindanao soon in SM CDO Downtown Premier.

What I remember most of Uniqlo is that it is the only store we shopped at when we were in Manila for vacation. My boys love their clothes especially hubby. He still wears his fave red Uniqlo shirt until this day which he bought years ago in Uniqlo in SM Aura Premier way back in September 2013 and here is my photo of that visit almost 4 years ago.

Hubby likes the comfy style of that shirt. Since we don’t usually shop for clothes during family vacations as we usually do mostly food trips with my boys, so this brand was an exception and it has stuck to our memories as we remember our family trips then as Uniqlo is now here in our city. We’re happy to have more brands of clothing coming in the city!

UNIQLO is known around the world for its LifeWear-innovative, high-quality clothing that is universal in design and comfort and made for everyone, everywhere. Through LifeWear, the company constantly develops technologies and fabrics to bring more warmth, more lightness, better design and better comfort to people’s lives.

“We at UNIQLO are thrilled to open our first two stores in Davao in SM Lanang Premier and SM City Davao Annex. We are looking forward to bringing our high-quality and innovative LifeWear pieces closer to Davaeonos,” said Katsumi Kubota, Chief Operating Officer, UNIQLO Philippines.

Uniqlo Philippines had an exclusive tour and shopping event for media and invited VIP guests yesterday afternoon in SM Lanang Premier. Here is a glimpse yesterday of the first Uniqlo store in Davao and Mindanao.
