ACX RETAIL, a new retail platform created to bring selected global brands and new retail concepts to the Philippines, has entered into an exclusive distribution partnership with MUSINSA Co., Ltd. to bring South Korean fashion brand MUSINSA STANDARD to the local market. “The Philippines is a strategically important market with significant growth potential, driven by strong interest in Korean fashion among young consumers. MUSINSA STANDARD’s expanding store network in South Korea attracts more than 28 million visits annually, ACX Retail noted. “As MUSINSA STANDARD grows from Seoul into global markets, we adapt our products and styles to fit the character of each region,” MUSINSA STANDARD Design Director Kim Jihoon said. Ayala Corp., through ACX Retail, said the partnership forms part of its effort to broaden access to globally recognized retail concepts in the Philippine market.
