Imagine getting all your wants fulfilled by just one company and not having to great lengths in order to achieve the things you need. It’s something that we don’t see often but Resident Holdings Group, a Manila-based umbrella company recently launched by art patron and branding magnate Robbie Antonio, strives to do just that.
A fast-growing corporation organization, Resident Holdings already has successful interests in property, food franchising, and direct marketing to name a few, but it is continuously working to reinvent itself, and expand its business footprint in order to become ubiquitous.
Most important (thing to us) is being a game-changer in the whatever enterprise we get into. We need to be different all the time
Resident Holdings prides itself in having a highly differentiated business model that allows its businesses to immediately connect with customers and audiences. All of the company’s units offer products that are curated by influencers and celebrities, like the recently unveiled Regal Jewelry Collection.
Launched in a star-studded event in September 2019, Regal Jewelry Collection serves as another jewel to Resident Holding’s business portfolio. The company partnered with no less than 40 celebrities to curate intricate pieces of fashion jewelry and accessories to reach different levels of consumers, both men and women
“We wanted to create a brand that will allow customers to buy beautiful, and artistic pieces of fashion jewelry selected by their favorite actors, models, beauty queen and influencers. The fact that these pieces are unique but affordable adds to the appeal of the brand,” Robbie Antonio stressed.
Antonio was joined during the launch by top nearly 20 celebrities such as actresses Carla Abellana, Alyssa Muhlach, Shaira Diaz, 2018 Miss World Philippines Katarina Rodriguez, and model and actor David Licauco to name a few.
A company is never completely ready to take risks and it takes collective intelligence to execute.
During the event, Robbie Antonio led the unveiling of the brand’s newest collections of celebrity curated rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. It is an eclectic combination of sleek, sophisticated designs with loads of choices for customization. Each one of their precious ornaments is hand-picked to match customers’ style preference.
Last year’s launch of Regal Jewelry Collection also serves as Robbie Antonio’s further involvement into the world of fashion retail. Earlier, he has launched his eyewear company Rebel Specs Design, which also sells celebrity curated pieces. Among his endorsers/celebrity partners for the eyewear brand is world boxing icon Manny Pacquiao.
