OUR STORY

Bringing Japan’s Finest
to Filipino Tables

MODO Food and Living Japan is a Japanese-inspired lifestyle brand and café, rooted in the word ‘modo,’ meaning ‘way’ or ‘a place for all.’

We bring purposeful, thoughtfully crafted products into everyday life, and distribute premium Japanese brands in coffee, tea, and kitchenware, including Unir, Ippodo Tea, Vermicular, and Aladdin. Our café brings these brands to life, with every drink and dish prepared using the same premium tools we proudly represent.

HISTORY & FOUNDATION

The Story Behind MODO

Founded in 2025, MODO was born from a shared passion for thoughtful design and craftsmanship. Guided by a team of creatives, chefs, and designers, we strive to blend Japanese precision with Filipino warmth through products and experiences that embody function, beauty, and mindful living.

Deeply inspired by Japan’s approach to coffee, tea, and design, our vision is to bring those same values and quality products to the Philippines.

OUR COMMITMENT

Thoughtfully Curated for Everyday Life

At MODO, we create meaningful experiences in both our café and through the products we offer, curating refined Japanese-inspired pieces that blend tradition, heritage, innovation, and purpose.

We aim to be a trusted destination for those who value quality, authenticity, and thoughtful design, seeking to inspire a lifestyle of mindfulness, purposeful, and refined living.
