Hospitality Industry during COVID-19 Times
A lot of things have changed and the way businesses operates are far different from the way they did before and there is no exceptions especially in the hospitality industry when the corona virus pandemic began. As restrictions begin to lift and businesses began to reopen, most businesses and establishments follow strict protocols to ensure their guests and employees safety regarding the virus. Businesses think ways on how to minimize person to person contact while still being engaged with their guests and customers are already adopting to the social distancing policies and they already expect interactions with staffs to be minimum. Guests are also getting more comfortable with keeping their distance and using technology to ask and gather information regarding their stay. 
When I was working as a front office associate/guest services officer at The Manila Hotel, part of our daily operation is doing the usual check-in and check-out, room blockings and using a reusable room keys, event organizing,  and sometimes doing showrooms of our suites and function halls for weddings and events. So basically, our main role is communicating and engaging with people every day while following the hotels standards and satisfying our guests.
With this changes, it gives a serious challenge for the hotel and restaurant industry on how they will keep the same service and standards that they give while ensuring that the social distancing protocol is being followed. Now this is where technology comes in. At Diamond Mills Resort & Tavern, Located in Saugerties, New York, the usual form-filling and credit card authorization is now being done even before the guests arrives at the hotel. Face coverings are required at the premises and guests only needs to stop at reception to pick up their room key which is a disposable one that is being passed by the front office agent under a plexiglass shields that separates the front office agent and the guests. Like all establishments, guests are also given an information sheet explaining the safety protocols of the hotel as well as for contract tracing. There is also a lot of sanitizer gel on tap on every receptionist.
Most hotels before the pandemic offers a complimentary coffee, tea, fruit induced water and even a complimentary breakfast. But for Diamond Mills, they declined those services for their guest’s safety precautions. Even Diamond Mills gym facility is closed.
As an ex-front office agent and sometimes hotel guest myself, I can say that since most establishments are still not operating under their normal operations, we should consider and recognize that we are not going to get the full experience as we should every time that we stay in a hotel.

At the start of the 2010s, the two opposite camps of luxury fashion and streetwear rarely crossed-over. Luxury was exclusively for the elite older generation — it was preppy, expensive, serious. Streetwear and sportswear, on the other hand, were for everyone else. This generation of creators — who during this time, started becoming the most influential consumer segment in the luxury market, and whose definition of “luxury” itself shifted from price point to cultural credibility — had other ideas.
And then came New Guards Group, the Milanese mystery holding company that disrupted the entire industry and commercialized what would famously become known as “luxury streetwear.” The company — co-founded in 2015 and run by Davide De Giglio and Andrea Grilli — has birthed some of luxury streetwear’s most successful brands, including Off-White™, Palm Angels, Heron Preston, Kirin (by Peggy Gou), and Marcelo Burlon County of Milan. (Virgil Abloh still owns the trademark to Off-White™.)
More than just creating classic streetwear staples in luxury fabrications with artisanal techniques, the company adopted streetwear’s way of marketing itself, releasing products and communicating directly with consumers through digital channels that allowed for quicker feedback. Add fast-paced production and distribution capabilities to the equation — its production company works on 24/7 shifts to annually create over 200 collections for the group — and you have what co-founder Davide De Giglio calls “luxury fast-fashion,” catered to a young affluent generation that expects luxury at the speed of Instagram (the company says it’s able to go from design to delivery within three weeks). Its model paid off. In the year ending April 30, 2019, New Guards Group generated revenues of $345 million, up 59 percent year-on-year.
New Guards Group’s sharp ability to identify credible talent who already have big, loyal followings, paired with its internal infrastructure to launch, scale, and foster independent brands fast (from design and production to distribution and management) has enabled the company to grow its brand portfolio — it owns majority stakes in all its brands, with the exception of knitwear label Alanui — at an unprecedented pace, ultimately creating streetwear’s new paradigm.
Farfetch, the London-based online retailer and owner of Stadium Goods and Browns, purchased New Guards Group in August 2019, in a cash-and-stock transaction worth a staggering $675 million. The acquisition would enable New Guards Group’s brands to expand their direct-to-consumer sales via the platform. At the time of sale, 95 percent of New Guards Group’s total sales came from wholesale and franchise partners.
And this is only the beginning. With all eyes on New Guards Group’s next move, it’s evolving its strategy — most noticeably with the appointment of its first ever Chief Marketing Officer, Cristiano Fagnani, a Nike veteran of 20 years who was in charge of Nike’s influencer marketing, brand experience initiatives, and led some of the most defining fashion collaborations for the sportswear giant in recent years, including those with Virgil Abloh and Yoon Ahn.
In an exclusive interview with Highsnobiety, Fagnani lays out his plans for what’s next at New Guards Group, from new drop schedules to the expansion of the group itself.
The Company Will Grow, Fast
“There’s [always] a moment, and this is the moment for New Guards to shift gears,” says Fagnani. “After five incredible years, we’re now starting to consolidate the business and build the infrastructure to grow in a healthy way for the next five or 10 years.”
We’ve entered a new decade, new beginnings. So too for streetwear, which must evolve. Now, with Farfetch on board, New Guards Group is gearing up for this progression. Fagnani knows this — it’s why, since his appointment in January, he’s put new processes in place and gone on a hiring spree.
“One of my jobs is to structure the fundamentals, and open up the culture of the company. There are several brands in our portfolio that are at different stages of growth. Some of them, like Off-White™, are ready to become [bigger] companies on their own, rather than just one piece of the portfolio,” he says. “Others that are still small require some sort of organization to keep moving.”
But how does this manifest in practice? “For a company who was pretty much wholesale driven, now is the opportunity to add layers [by] building new stores, shift gears on .com, and establish and grow our presence on different channels and market places, geographically speaking,” says Fagnani, hinting at a bigger planned growth in Asia.
Between big luxury powerhouses like Chanel and Louis Vuitton, Off-White™ is opening its first standalone store on London’s lux Sloane Street later this month, followed by stores in Milan the following week and in Paris next year. However, New Guards Group is better known for opening up new stores in places like Manila, Melbourne, or Kuala Lumpur — locations where it sees traction online, yet where almost no luxury brands have a physical presence. It’s something the company will continue, Fagnani says.
Their teams are evolving, too. Key hires have been made across digital marketing, merchandising, e-commerce, communications, product collaborations, and strategy. For the bigger companies like Off-White™, where teams from New Guards Group would earlier work across brands, independent teams are now being built to get to a point where it can independently function to grow faster.
“We’re at a moment of maturity where [we’re going] from being an entrepreneurial collective to a company with an aligned infrastructure,” he says. “You need to be consistent and committed. This is where new people will have a role to be able to focus on the consumer 24/7, 365.”
New Brands Will Be Acquired
Last January, New Guards Group bought the trademark and intellectual property of Opening Ceremony, closing all four of its multi-brand stores by the end of the year in order to develop and expand its ready-to-wear line from Milan, relaunch Opening Ceremony’s website on Farfetch, and create a showroom in Paris. The line will continue to be designed by co-founders Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, with Fall/Winter 2020 being their first season; however, it’s Opening Ceremony’s pioneering expertise in concept retail and local community building that New Guards is truly interested in.
The same month, New Guards took a majority stake in Japanese jewelry and apparel label Ambush, founded by Yoon Ahn and Verbal. At the time of purchase, Ambush roughly made $22 million in annual sales, with jewelry representing 30 percent of sales and half of all sales hailing from Japan. The goal with Ambush is now to expand more internationally, add new product categories, and open physical stores outside of Japan.
It’s just the latest example of New Guards’ ambition to become an even bigger international luxury player. Fagnani will be key in that mission. “Even brands who have reached a certain level can benefit from a burst that comes from an organization that’s able to accelerate growth through a network, skills, and expertise that we’ve built,” says Fagnani. “So, in that sense you can expect New Guards to be looking around for companies or brands that have the opportunity to shift gears at some point in their life. It’s what we’ll be focusing on consistently.”
So, what makes a good candidate? “We don’t really have a checklist. We’re new to the game, and the way we see the game is that it’s very open, so we aren’t just looking vertically to one part of the industry,” he says, adding that one thing that’s certain is that it will be looking at companies in other areas of the industry beyond ready-to-wear, as well as more businesses (like Opening Ceremony and AMBUSH) that don’t have to be created from scratch, like the brands it started with. “It’s not a formula you can repeat forever. I don’t see the next few years being as we had years ago. Now that the company has five years’ experience, we can embrace businesses that are already developed and help them get to the next level.”
He also hints at the platform evolving in its direction. “We’re definitely moving towards, let’s say, fashion luxury and premium. I’m saying this with big respect, but people otherwise will expect us to do T-shirts and hoodies every day,” he says. “This is what we’re very good at doing, by the way, [but] that’s not what [gets us] to the next level.
It Will Change Fashion’s Calendar
“[In the past], we’ve been covered because of our presence in the classic fashion system with its [seasonal] show cycles, look books, etc., and I think that was great. It helped all our brands to be seen and accepted in the industry, but, without disrespecting that lifecycle, we’re ready for the next step and see an opportunity to get closer to consumers,” says Fagnani. “We have to travel instead of them traveling to us.”
For decades, the seasonal model has remained the same — what’s changed in the past decade (and what the industry has been slow to react to) is that shows are no longer behind closed doors. “It’s a little bit nonsense. In the era where everything is public, I don’t think it’s really efficient to have your biggest moment of excitement [a runway show] attached to a collection that doesn’t come to the market for the next six months. It’s day-to-day engagement through storytelling; it’s no switch on, switch off [mentality] anymore.”
Those that aren’t changing now risk losing relevance. “That’s when the markdowns start in department stores,” he says. “We don’t want to see markdowns. We want a synergy that will allow us to have fresh products constantly and put our wholesale [stockists] in a position where they can sell out a lot of our product before the next delivery comes in.”
And so, the CMO has a plan. Over the last couple of months, Fagnani and his team have been working on a seasonal “editorial calendar” for each of the brands, that sets out a clear schedule of product and bigger collection releases, aimed to align different teams inside the individual brands a lot better by specifying what drops where and when.
“[Currently] it’s a find-and-seek exercise for consumers, where once in a while there will be a drop or collaboration, and the goal is to be in a place where, at the beginning of the season, we [share] an agenda of the season,” Fagnani explains, adding that the calendar will include the planning of everything from specific product drops to the marketing activations and campaigns that surround them and put the product in front of the consumer. “It might sound obvious, but to build a cohesive approach for the season by aligning the pipes between brick-and-mortar retail, digital, our social platforms, storytelling, and events [is difficult].
It’s a big shift, Fagnani admits, saying the benefits aren’t just a novelty for the consumer, but also prevent too much cross-over between seasons, which until now has proven inefficient. So, what’s the plan for brands like Off-White™? “I think especially for Off-White™, we’ll go into this new cycle of seasons. The show or presentation will become the highlight of what you will be seeing, product- and story-wise, for the following months to come. And we’ll reverse the energy that comes from the [show] into the market place immediately,” he says.
This means that, where there are currently eight seasons a year per brand (four for each gender), there will now be just two in total — Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter, men and women combined. For each season, however, there will be three to four deliveries, each with individual storytelling and marketing around it. It’s a way to lower the amount of product at any given time on its channels, creating more scarcity and, ultimately, urgency to purchase for you, the shopper. It will also allow the brands within New Guards Group’s portfolio to be more reactionary to what’s happening in youth culture in real time with its product and communication.
Its Global Brands Will Become More Localized
This new schedule is part of New Guards Group’s mission to include the consumer a lot more in the building of the future of its brands, in what Fagnani calls “being more culturally [and locally] communicative.”
“I think it’s now important to offer the brand to the consumer in different places with slightly different glances. And if a brand or a company wants to expand and be globally relevant, it needs to find a way to connect geographically, everywhere,” says Fagnani. “Brands have the responsibility of picturing the future, driving consumers emotionally and physically to places that they haven’t seen before, to chart the uncharted.”
And so, the shift to become more locally communicative will include everything from the e-commerce websites from its owned brands soon becoming available in multiple languages to entering and growing both its physical and digital presence in key markets like Asia, Latin, and South America for all its brands, where it will be looking to create more local experiences and activations with those communities. Unlike many other luxury stores, New Guards Group will take a different approach where, as often seen with Starbucks, individual stores will adapt to the mood of the cities where they’re located.
The way in which it communicates with local audiences will equally be important. Growing on Chinese platforms like WeChat will be a starting point. “We’re going to put some effort into it to be in charge of the content and acknowledge what is needed for this platform, not just as an afterthought after we’ve managed Western [platforms]. That’s a big shift,” he says. “I think it’s a matter of respect and it also builds some efficiency, [but] we have to learn to speak that language so we’ll have to make an effort to fill the gap.”
The CMO, however, is highly aware that products themselves will always be at the centre of any brand-consumer relationship. “At the end of the day, the transfer of product is a testament of this relationship, because that’s what they want from you,” he reflects. “There’s also an element of honesty from brands in aligning the storytelling of the brand with the commercial outlet and making them organically connected in a way so there are no lies or other intentions other than being transparent, connected, and available.”
That might sound too transactional at first, however, Fagnani understands it’s this directness that both the consumer and the business need. “It puts the company and the brands in the closest position in the conversation to consumers. And being closer to consumers allows you to then listen to them better, service them with their needs, and engage with them in a conference that isn’t just attached to a single transaction, but creates an ongoing relationship in the long term.”
“It’s why we call consumers members. Members of the bigger organization that have the brands at its centre,” he says, referencing the participation of a brand’s fans in the upcoming storytelling and activations created around products. “Part of it resides in the product’s craft, quality, and excellent manufacturing. Part of it resides on the storytelling that comes with it. All these things need to come together, and when the product is put in front of the consumer, you can’t lie about it, so why not connect all the dots and make it more linear, more transparent?”

Unveil the top 11 upcoming cars 2020 in the Philippines
Tumblr media
What are your most anticipated cars for 2020 in the Philippines?
Upcoming cars 2020 in the Philippines: What are they?
From solid introductions of new car models in the Manila International Auto Show last April to the upcoming Philippine Electric Vehicle Summit, ushering in a new era in Philippine motoring with electric vehicles, the anticipation for these new cars are reaching a fever-pitch among the local car industry and community. This year isn’t over, but car companies are now poised to introduce their contenders for the upcoming cars 2020 in the Philippines. There were some models in fact that were introduced all but suddenly the past year which were not part of our list back then and we were pleasantly surprised with their additions.
Tumblr media
Whether a redesign, variant or all-new model, we expect these vehicles to show up for the 2020 model year or not too long later. Though we are working with the best information available, these forecasts are subject to change at any time. In other words, nothing is official until it lands in the dealer’s showroom. Based on what we already know, the early 2020s are shaping up to be an interesting year. You can call it a mid-cycle refresh, a new variant or an all-new model, these models are prime for the picking and the anticipation for these models are so hot, that people are short of picking up their pitchforks and marching over to their respective dealers for immediate release! Philkotse.com team strives to keep all the information on this list as accurate as possible but these forecasts are ultimately reliant on the car companies and are surely subject to change. One thing is for sure, though. 2020 is going to be a great year for new cars and we’re excited to give you all the information you need about these new and exciting models! No. Model Status Release date 1 Nissan Leaf EV 2020 Confirmed Q2 2020 2 Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2020 Confirmed Q4 2019 3 Toyota GR Supra GT4 2020 Confirmed Q4 2019 4 Honda Accord 2020 Confirmed Q1 2020 5 Mazda 3 2020 Confirmed Q1 2020 6 Toyota Corolla Altis 2020 Tentative Q4 2019 7 Ford Everest "Raptor" Rumored Q1 2020 8 BMW 745e PHEV Tentative Q4 2019 9 BMW X7 2020 Confirmed Q4 2019 10 Kia Seltos Confirmed Q4 2019 11 Kia Stonic Confirmed Q4 2019
#1. Nissan Leaf EV 2020
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q2 2020 The Nissan Leaf is the Japanese brand’s shot into returning to local relevance. Although EV adoption is still at its infancy in the Philippines, there is an obvious push towards removing ourselves from relying on fossil fuels for our cars. Powered by a Fully Electric Synchronous Motor, the Electric Vehicle musters 148 hp and 320 Nm of torque with an estimated range of 270 km. The beauty of synchronous motors is that all that power is not reliant on engine speed or RPM as it has none of those. You can potentially make all that power instantly as soon as you hit the pedal. Another set of good news is that Nissan Philippines has confirmed that Nissan Leaf EV to arrive on Philippine shores by 2020 and they are major stakeholders in building the local infrastructure for charging systems with the pilot run around the capital. It’s a great time to be alive!
Tumblr media
Nissan Leaf has been confirmed to release in 2020
#2. Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2020
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q4 2019 The Mitsubishi Montero Sport is a class-leading vehicle and is proof that Mitsubishi is serious about being the leader in trucks and SUVs. The dynamic shield design creates a dynamic and aggressive front fascia that stands out from the pack in the PPV market. The Philkotse team loves the design, but then Mitsubishi released the 2019 Mitsubishi Strada came out of nowhere and surprised us with its much-improved bumper. It made us dream of the same design being slapped on to the Montero Sport. I never thought I would be so excited over a simple refresh. Multiple leaked photos of the Montero Sport doesn’t help satiate our desire for the new refreshed model as Mitsubishi cleverly camouflaged it to hide its design. It will still be powered by the same engine and produce the same power figures but color us intrigued for the upcoming release. Reports have surfaced that the model will be unveiled in Thailand this July 25th with local sales to be announced not long after. >>> Read our preview of the Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2020
Tumblr media
Some spy shots of the Montero Sport facelift has been surfaced online while testing in Northern Sweden
#3. Toyota Supra 2020
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q4 2019 Nissan has it’s GT-R, Honda its Civic Type-R and even Chevrolet made their Corvette available for the local market. It has been a while since Toyota in the Philippines introduced a halo car to hover above all its sales leaders, but with the introduction of the Toyota Supra to our shores, they just became the top-dog. The Toyota Supra line has long retained its iconic status ever since the 90s when Bryan O’Connor smoked a fancy Ferrari F355 in the first The Fast and the Furious movie and with average prices for used Fourth-Generation Toyota Supras maintaining their premium prices, you just know that a Fifth-Gen release will bring in car buyers crashing the front doors to get their hands on a unit. Developed in partnership with BMW and based on the BMW Z4, it is powered by either a 2 liter inline-4 or 3-liter inline-6 turbocharged engine creating 255 hp and 335 hp respectively. Both models utilize an 8-speed automatic transmission and just like the previous model is in a Rear-Wheel Drive configuration. As of this writing, the Toyota Supra has now been introduced to our market and sales will begin shortly as a 2020 model.
Tumblr media
Fifth-gen Supra will break down the doors at Toyota Dealerships >>> Refer to our full Toyota Supra Philippines price list with estimated monthly installment.
#4. Honda Accord 2020
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q1 2020 The latest iteration of the Honda Accord has long been introduced globally and has made quite a stir thanks to its Turbocharged VTEC engine and bold styling. Although the Toyota Camry beat it to the punch this year with a local release, Honda fans have been anticipating its announcement and release. Hope does spring eternal with the new model being introduced at the 2019 Bangkok International Motor Show earlier this year. Since the release of Honda Accord in our ASEAN neighbor, it is safe to say it will be available here as well. The Honda Accord available in their shores is the 1.5-liter turbo VTEC engine that makes 187 hp and 243 Nm of torque with a Hybrid option available. Honda gives you 10 forward speeds with their automatic transmission, although personally I still wish they bring the 6-speed manual version, one can dream, right? The model will also make an introduction on the 18th of this month at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show in Tangerang, Indonesia giving the Philippines hope for a late 2019 or early 2020 release.
Tumblr media
Honda fans have been anticipating for the debut of Honda Accord 2020
#5. Mazda 3 2020
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q1 2020 Mazda has always been at the forefront of technology with the internal combustion engine. From the Wankel Rotary to the Sky-Active engine their research and development team worked tirelessly to create new ways to propel cars the way we know it. The all-new 4th Generation Mazda 3 will bring forth a new development with the introduction of the SkyActive-X engine, a combustion system where engine compression is significantly increased to burn fuel more efficiently to create more power and increase fuel efficiency and recent tests have shown very promising results. The 2-liter Sky-Active engine creates 190 hp and 280 Nm of torque, all from a Naturally aspirated engine. These figures have never been seen from an engine with similar displacement. The Mazda 3 has been announced for release earlier this year, showcasing this technology wrapped in a very sporty and attractive Kodo Design. Mazda is positioning itself as Japan’s premium car brand and it shows with the build quality and design language. A local wide release is scheduled for late 2019 to early 2020.

#6. Toyota Corolla Altis 2020
Status: Tentative Release date: Q4 2019 --- Update (September 9th, 2019): The all-new Toyota Corolla Altis 2020 is officially released in the Philippines! Click here to get full details. --- If the Toyota Camry beat the Honda Accord with releasing first in the Philippines, they sure got the short end of the stick when it comes to their compact sedans. The Honda Civic has enjoyed a significant lead in sales compared to its natural competitor, the Toyota Corolla Altis. This year, Toyota is gearing up for a return in a big way with the release of the 12th Generation of their iconic sedan. Featuring a radical redesign from the outgoing model, The New Corolla Altis is based on Toyota’s New Global Architecture (TNGA) GA-C platform found in the new Prius and CH-R. The ASEAN model is rumored to be available with a 1.6 and 1.8 engine. Reports have indicated that the model will be available in the Thailand beginning August this year, and hopefully to the Philippine market not long after that. We can most likely expect a new Toyota Corolla Altis at the end of the 4th Quarter 2019.
Tumblr media

#7. Ford Everest "Raptor"
Status: Rumored Release date: Q1 2020 Much like the Strada and Montero Sport, the release of the Ford Ranger Raptor 2019 gave fans wild dreams of what a potential Ford Everest “Raptor” would look like. If the Everest Bi-Turbo and the Ranger Raptor’s power figures were any indication the 2-liter engine bi-turbo diesel engine pushes out 210 hp and 500 Nm of torque, beastly figures that are the best in their respective classes. You can chalk this up more in the rumor department but multiple sources from Ford have indicated that the beast does exist and a planned announcement is set for the First Half of 2020.
Tumblr media
You can chalk this up more in the rumor department
#8. BMW 745e PHEV
Status: Tentative Release date: Q4 2019 You’ve seen the memes for these cars. With their over-sized Kidney Grill, the internet seems to be fascinated with the latest iteration of the BMW 7 Series and X7 Luxury SUV. Introduced and released internationally at the beginning of the year, 2 of BMW's flagship marques offer top-notch luxury and motoring decadence. Powering the 745e is a 3 liter inline-6 turbocharged engine with designation called the xDrive45e paired to an electric drive motor combining for a total output of 394 hp and a staggering 600 Nm of torque, the BMW 745e has a 0-100 km/h rating of a little less over 5 seconds. No one would be laughing at that over-sized grill once they get left in the dust by this PHEV. Local sources from within BMW have indicated a release for the 745e at 4Q of this year for a 2020 model year release.
Tumblr media
The BMW 745e offers top-notch luxury and motoring decadence
#9. BMW X7 2020
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q4 2019 BMW also has its ultra Luxury SUV, the BMW X7 on the horizon, with a confirmed release for this 4Q 2019. The new BMW X7 doesn't have an electric motor to assist its propulsion but makes up for it with a 4.4 liter twin-turbo V8 churning out a mind-blowing 523 hp and 750 Nm of torque. This propels the behemoth from 0-100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds. Information about the X7 is already posted on BMW Philippines' website and we were informed of a 4Q 2019 release. It seems like we now have a new aspirational car if we do win the lottery.
Tumblr media
The BMW X7 is surely one of the upcoming cars 2020 in the Philippines
#10. & #11. Kia Seltos & Kia Stonic
Status: Confirmed Release date: Q4 2019 Earlier this year Kia Philippines has announced that they would not be releasing the updated Kia Soul in the Philippine Market but will instead be replacing it with another model. They’ve dropped multiple hints about what it could be and even released the Kia Stinger at this year’s Manila International Auto Show to heighten our anticipation. Since being taken over by the Ayala Group, Kia Philippines has promised to streamline their model line-up and introduce new and exciting vehicles.
Tumblr media
Kia Philippines has promised to streamline their model line-up The possibility of either the Kia Seltos or the Kia Stonic or even both have long been discussed and the anticipation has now reached its boiling point. These models are both Compact Crossover SUVs with the Stonic more appropriately sized as a Nissan Juke Competitor and the Seltos, a slightly larger vehicle but can still be bundled within that same category. The Kia Seltos is the likeliest release of the 2 cars with its focus on the Asian market but we can't discount the Stonic just yet. If Kia’s local releases this year have been any indication, their ability to surprise the market is impeccable with their aptitude to keep release dates and marketing strategies they always know how to keep us on our toes. It is expected that either one or even both of these vehicles will be rolling off Kia showrooms by the end of this year at the end of Q4 of 2019
Tumblr media
The anticipation has now reached its boiling point So, there you have it, folks! The most anticipated cars for the 2020 model year in the Philippines. What cars are you most excited about? Read the full article

Shop Gambles Home The Furniture Sale Begins At Jonesboro Ar
In 1990, Dan and Wanda Gamble founded Gamble and Sons Discount Furniture. They opened their first store in a tiny 600 square foot building in historic Downtown Manila, AR. From the beginning, their success has been built by service after the sale. In 1996, after years of success, we updated to a new, larger building on Highway 18 in Manila. We also decided to change the name to Red Tag Furniture by Gamble Home to reflect the new creative direction in which our store was heading.
 Tragedy struck in 1998, when the store was wiped out by a tornado that swept through the area. The damage forced us to completely shut down. However, with unyielding determination, we were able to rebuild it from the ground up, and made it bigger and better than before!
 In February of 2000, we added American Rent to Own to our family of business to diversify the range of service offered by Gambles. In October of 2009, still wanting to grow, we opened Weekends by Gamble Home Furnishings in Jonesboro. It didn’t take long to realize that business was too good to only be open 3 days a week, so we changed our name, started staying open 7 days a week to meet the demands of our customers, and Gamble Home Furnishings in Jonesboro was open for Business.
 In 2010, we partnered up with America’s Mattress for all of our customer’s needs in mattresses, lift beds and pillows, including the iComfort lineup. In November 2013, we took another step forward by opening a store in Paragould. At first it was called Outlet and Co. , but by January of 2015, we had changed the name to Gamble Home Express and updated the layout to match the other two locations. We opened our Clearance Center in Jonesboro in mid 2015, where we buy dealer cancellations, factory closeouts, bankrupt stock and factory overruns and sell them to customers for 30-70% off every day!
 In the Summer of 2016, we expanded once more, adding a 3500 square foot location at the Mall at Turtle Creek in Jonesboro! We were wanting to give people a more centralized location to see our showcase of amazing furniture, and this space worked perfectly! We are extremely excited about the growth of our business, and hope to continue to see growth in the future!
 We now offer over 100K square foot of showroom floor between our 3 locations. Come by any of our stores and let us help you get the furniture that you have always wanted!

Shop Gambles Home The Furniture Sale Begins At Jonesboro AR
In 1990, Dan and Wanda Gamble founded Gamble and Sons Discount Furniture. They opened their first store in a tiny 600 square foot building in historic Downtown Manila, AR. From the beginning, their success has been built by service after the sale. In 1996, after years of success, we updated to a new, larger building on Highway 18 in Manila. We also decided to change the name to Red Tag Furniture by Gamble Home to reflect the new creative direction in which our store was heading.
Tragedy struck in 1998, when the store was wiped out by a tornado that swept through the area. The damage forced us to completely shut down. However, with unyielding determination, we were able to rebuild it from the ground up, and made it bigger and better than before!
In February of 2000, we added American Rent to Own our business to diversify the range of service offered by Gambles. In October of 2009, we still wanting to grow, we opened Weekends by Gamble Home Furnishings in Jonesboro. It did not take long to realize that business was good to only open 3 days a week, so we changed our name, started staying open 7 days a week to meet the demands of our customers, and Gamble Home Furnishings in Jonesboro was open for Business.
In 2010, we partnered up with America's Mattress for all our customer's needs in mattresses, pillows and pillows, including the iComfort lineup. In November 2013, we took another step forward by opening a store in Paragould. At first it was called Outlet and Co., but by January of 2015, we had changed the name to Gamble Home Express and updated the layout to match the other two locations. We opened our Clearance Center in Jonesboro in mid-2015, where we buy dealer cancellations, factory closeouts, bankrupt stock and factory overruns and sell them to customers for 30-70% off every day!
In the Summer of 2016, we expanded once more, adding a 3500 square foot location at the Mall at Turtle Creek in Jonesboro! We were wanting to give people more centralized location to see our showcase of amazing furniture, and this space worked perfectly! We are extremely excited about the growth of our business, and hope to continue to see growth in the future!
