Hallohallo Inc. to develop Japan-themed complex

Hallohallo Inc. has entered an agreement with the JV company of Mitsubishi Corp. and Ayala Land to develop a commercial complex with Japan as the main concept.

The JV company will mainly provide the shop spaces, while Hallohallo will propose the theme, concept, design, and plan of the commercial area in cooperation with digital creative firm teamLab.

Japanese cuisine, animation, and other contents originating from Japan have been booming in the Philippines as of late. Under the project, Hallohallo will serve as the contact point in inviting tenants from Japan, while the member stores of the franchise chain of retailers and restaurants that it handles will consider opening their own shops as tenants in the new complex.

The project is being developed on the rooftop of Glorietta in Makati City. Housing restaurants and shops with Japan as concept, the complex is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of this year.

Hallohallo is also planning to propose new themes, concepts and plans to sites other than the commercial area in Glorietta.

The entertainment complex will possess two faces: “Day” and “Night.”

The floor to be run by teamLab Inc. will be a facility for musical events that fuse lights and sounds at night, which transforms into an entertainment complex for children during the day.

Shows and performances are slated to be held within this facility.

There will also be restaurants where customers will get to enjoy authentic drinks and Japanese dishes. They can go shopping at the stores in this complex.

Character goods and Japanese products that excel in originality and quality and have not yet been sold overseas will be carefully selected and sold in cooperation with animate and @cosme.

Hallohallo Inc. is the Philippine’s largest gateway for electronic commerce between Filipino communities and businesses locally and internationally.
