Jollibee Foods Corp. (JFC) is set to introduce Common Man Coffee Roasters to the Philippines through a joint venture with Food Collective Pte. Ltd. (FCPL). The collaboration aims to enhance the local coffee culture.
JFC, a prominent Filipino multinational fast-food corporation, owns 60 percent of the business.
Unveiling the Allure of Common Man Coffee Roasters
The first Common Man Coffee Roasters location in the Philippines will be strategically situated at The Restaurants in the Ayala Triangle Gardens, right at the heart of Makati's Central Business District, according to the Philippine Star.
This prime location serves as the perfect setting to showcase the signature dining experience that Common Man is known for. The collaboration between JFC and Ayala Malls has paved the way for this exciting venture.
Common Man Coffee Roasters has made a name in Singapore and Malaysia by offering all-day dining experiences beyond the ordinary. The café's distinct creative design separates it from the rest, bringing a unique charm to the coffee-drinking and dining culture.
ABS-CBN noted that customers will also be able to witness the roasting process firsthand, creating a sensory experience like no other.
Establishing a Coffee Haven in the Philippines
Mariana Zobel de Ayala, senior vice president of Ayala Land, expressed her enthusiasm for the arrival of Common Man Coffee Roasters in Manila.
Having already enjoyed the café in Singapore during her time there, she anticipates that the Filipino market will embrace the unique offerings of the coffee chain. With this new addition, Common Man aims to establish itself as a beloved café in the bustling streets of Manila.
The Jollibee Group, with its extensive network of over 6,500 stores in 34 countries, is a major player in the global food industry.
Known for its flagship brand, Jollibee, the group owns and operates well-known franchises such as Chowking, Greenwich, and Red Ribbon. They have recently expanded their portfolio to include popular international brands like The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, Highlands Coffee, and Milksha.
Expanding Global Influence While Strengthening the Local Coffee Scene
Through its continuous pursuit of excellence, the Jollibee Group has cemented its presence in various corners of the world, including the United States, Canada, China, and the United Arab Emirates. As part of their growth strategy, they have acquired majority ownership of SuperFoods Group, which owns Highlands Coffee, and established a significant stake in Milksha, a Taiwanese bubble tea brand.
