THE ISLANDS GROUP / ISLANDS SOUVENIRS
 
The Islands Story
 
The Islands Group traces its history back to the early beginnings of Islands Souvenirs in Cebu in 1992. Breaking the mold of cottage-industry souvenir products, Islands Souvenirs, carved out a niche for itself by providing quality souvenirs that were both practical and creatively designed. It was one of the very first retail companies who made use of design in a country rich in natural beauty through destination-specific merchandise.
 
The Islands Way
 
The Islands Group is all about making travel in the Philippines an unforgettable experience. Plain and simple passion for service, understanding what the market needs, and a drive to deliver great value have shaped the Islands Group into the multi-awarded brand it is today.
 
Seeing Orange
 
We're excited to grow as well. A passion for service, a culture for creating value & fun, and a keen eye for nurturing opportunities - these are the traits that the Islands brand promise is attached to and what give us our competitive advantage in the tourism industry. And we've got one vision to drive us. At the end of the day, we want you to know that you can count the Islands Group to show you the Philippines the Islands Way.
