Primer International Management Limited (PIML) Vice President Camille Karaan, Assistant Vice President Melody Tanjimenez, and Brand Manager PJ Chua represented the Primer Group during the awarding ceremony.

It’s our first year doing Aetrex, and we are honored with this recognition. We are currently in three markets (Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore) and still working on expanding in more territories. We see a lot of potential on Aetrex given that its business model is quite unique. Aside from footwear, the brand invests a lot on technology and orthotics. This is only the beginning. We are excited with bigger things to come, exclaims Melody Tanjimenez.
