About Us
Subsidiaries
Spanning several components in design, retail, media, adventure, and tours, the Islands Group seeks to fill in the gaps and market needs within the tourism industry. Here is a brief overview of the companies in the Islands Group’s ever-growing portfolio.
Retail
Retail is not often considered as a legitimate part of the tourism industry, but we’ve made some headway with our concepts.

This is the brand that started it all and paved the way for the Islands Group. Premium quality souvenir items tell the story of your Philippine experience.
Philippine Islands (P.I.)
Nation-inspired apparel for the younger set, P.i. (short for Philippine Islands) focuses on pride of place and love of country.
