Monde Nissin x Uniqlo Press Conference

For the first time, Monde Nissin collaborates with Uniqlo to produce limited edition tees featuring designs of iconic Filipino brand, Lucky Me!, and the country’s favorite cookie sandwich, Bingo.

 
As a Filipino, I always feel happy whenever our local brands are put to highlight due to amazing projects. So imagine my surprise that the products that I grew up with have partnered with another brand that I love: Uniqlo limited tees with Monde Nissin products.

The press conference was held last June 28 by the two companies to unveil their new collaboration of limited edition tees. I got an invite but was not able to attend due to being out of the country. Fortunately, our friends from Greenbulb PR were happy to share what happened during the event. And given the quality of Uniqlo items, I would have love to get one of those Lucky Me! shirts!

Would you find yourself wearing one of these shirts? Let me know your thoughts in the comments section. Great day everyone!
