Primavera Residences offers Early Christmas Promo

C

agayan de Oro City, Misamis Oriental (November 10, 2014) – Looking for an investment at the most reasonable deals? Due to the high public demand from the buyers, Primavera Residences extends its promo, the FREE Kitchen Modular Cabinet and installation worth up to P100,000, as an early Christmas gift for its clients until December 31, 2014.

“Due to the promo’s resounding success, and in line with our company’s thrust to offer the best

possible package to our clientele, we decided to continue this once-in a-lifetime deal. Thus, as an early Christmas gift, we give more reasons for more people to finally purchase their own unit in the first multi-awarded, ecofriendly condo building in Mindanao and in Cagayan de Oro, which is Primavera Green Residences,” Franz Josef Enriquez, Sales Manager, Primavera Residences.

In a regular package, buyers usually get unfurnished units

with inclusions of tile floorings, painted walls and ceilings, fitted kitchen sinks, bathroom fixtures, electrical wirings and outlets; however, Primavera Residences’ Christmas promo gives buyers a chance to earn savings of up to P100K inclusive of a FREE set of Kitchen Modular Cabinet and its installation.

“When buying a home or a property, one of the most important parts to consider is the space where we will prepare our food for our family to eat. Primavera

understands this need and has significantly made it very simple and affordable for our customers to renovate the interior prior their moving in. This I believe is the real value-formoney offer that can't be beat,” Enriquez expressed.

Primavera Residences is known for its energysaving features including cantilevers that protect the units from direct sunlight and an indoor courtyard that maximizes the natural ventilation in the area. By June of 2015, solar panels that will provide additional

energy for the building’s common areas will be installed on the building’s rooftop. The building is also designed to withstand earthquakes and extreme weather and boasts of 24-7 security.

The green building has garnered several recognitions for its commitment to green architecture and design locally and internationally.

Recently, it was named among the winners in the prestigious International Property Awards in the 2014 Asia Pacific regional

competition being the Best Mixed-Use Development in the Philippines. It was also been awarded as the Best Condo Development in the Philippines in 2011 (Southeast Asia Property Awards) and a finalist in the Most Promising Clean Energy Investment Opportunity of the Year (CTI PFAN Philippines Clean Energy Investor Forum).

“Apart from the fact that we already have a few units left, we are the only one here in the CDO real estate industry, offering a promo of this magnitude.

Which is on top of our very competitive prices.

Indeed, we sell something eco-friendly that we want to add more value to the buyers’ purchase; that they [buyers] will not just earn big time, they also help the environment in a bigger note” Enriquez declared.

Primavera Residences, first development of Italpinas Euroasian Design and Eco-development Corporation (ITPI), is a 10-story, two-tower building located at Pueblo de Oro Township offering residential, commercial and office spaces for lease and purchase. All units in the first tower are ready for occupancy while the second tower is slated to be completed later this year.

Buyers may choose from studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units.

Walk in and out of the city in style

SLANG launches spring/summer collection 2014 Born 25 years ago in Barcelona, SLANG was established with creativity, design, and detail whirling at the very core of the street style brand. Since then, the company has expanded from Europe all the way to Asia.

Made for stylish urban dwellers that are always on the go, SLANG was made to adapt to the varying lifestyles of city slickers and the many different roles that they take on. To make this possible, only the finest materials are used and brought to life through new technologies and original designs.

SLANG first made a big splash when it launched its iconic bag that bears the most emblematic style in 1999. Since then, SLANG went on to be a fashion staple for its innovative, strength and lightness, and distinct style.

It isn’t much of a surprise that SLANG eventually expanded its market in countries including the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, as well as in the USA at the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco.

As the Philippines catches up with the global trends, SLANG has finally made its way to our tropical shores thanks to the Primer Group of Companies who brought in the brand last March 2013.

Characterized for its bags that

are meant to cover all aspects of urban living, SLANG is more than thrilled to present its latest collection for spring/summer. Inspired by versatility for both work and leisure environments, SLANG’s new line puts an emphasis on functionality through its sober lines, punchy hues, and playful twists on traditional bag structures.

To juxtapose with the classic structure of the bags, SLANG made use of Barcelona’s vibrant elements such as bright colors and materials that pay homage to the city’s historical and lively “barrios” – all of which are wrapped up in basic yet modern sensibilities that resonate best with sassy urbanites.

As SLANG loves to say, “There’s always a bag for you.” True enough, any modern day damsel can find all that she needs and more with the brand’s thoughtful bag varieties that are perfect for urban use as much as it is ideal for trips at the outskirts of the big city.

SLANG is available at Bratpack, The Travel Club and Ladybag stores nationwide. For more information about SLANG, visit www.slangbarcelona.com. “Like” us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ SlangBarcelona. SLANG is exclusively distributed in the Philippines by the Primer Group of Companies – Asia’s next retail giant.

Toyota Reaches Highest Monthly Sales Record in October The number one car company in the country has reached its highest monthly sales record registering 10,163 units last October. This is the first time any local car brand experienced such performance in terms of vehicle sales. On a yearto-date basis, TMPC has registered a growth of 41.92% vs previous year selling a total of 86,794 units and already surpassing its 2013 sales level. Likewise, TMPC’s YTD market share of 45.2%

for the first 10 months of 2014.

In addition, Toyota maintains its lead in the Passenger Car Segment with 35,163 units sold, driven by the higher buying power of consumers who require more affordable and practical vehicles such as the locally manufactured Vi o s a n d t h e n e w l y introduced hatchback Wigo. On the other hand, the continued strong demand of its Commercial Vehicles with sales of 51, 629 units YTD can be

attributed to the growing requirement for vehicles from various business sectors.

In a statement, TMPC President Michinobu Sugata expressed “The continued robust economy has given us the momentum to achieve this sales milestone. Toyota has also foreseen the market demand to be strong before the long holidays and took action by ensuring supply of vehicles to meet the requirements of the consumers during this

period.”

Sugat a als o added saying that “…both the Toyota Vios and Innova continue to be the most important models in its line-up as this comprises close to 40% of TMP’s sales.

Therefore, if an acceptable auto road map can be in place soon, this will further boost demand for locally assembled vehicles and support motorization in the Country.”

On a year-to-date basis, the total industry has already reached 192,005

units, growing by 30% vs that of 2013 (JanuaryOctober). With a steady GDP growth of 6.4%, all car brands are expected to take advantage of this favourable market trend for the rest of 2014.

TMPC stands strong as the market leader and continues to keep the Triple Crown (No. 1 in PC, No. 1 in CV & No. 1 in Overall sales) in the Philippine automotive industry.
