MUJI Philippines Unveils Its Largest Flagship Store at Glorietta
MUJI Philippines has reached a new milestone with the opening of its first and largest flagship store at Glorietta 3, introducing an expanded experience centered around thoughtful living and everyday essentials. Covering over 2,600 square meters across three floors, MUJI Glorietta now stands as the brand’s largest location in the country, redefining what it means to shop for simplicity, function, and timeless design.
A New Home for Minimalist Living
True to its ethos of “no-brand quality goods,” MUJI Glorietta offers an impressive selection of over 2,500 products, designed to effortlessly fit into daily life. While MUJI has long been loved for its apparel, the flagship store places a renewed emphasis on home living—highlighting furniture, storage solutions, kitchen tools, decor, and even indoor greenery curated specifically for the Philippine lifestyle.
The store’s design is as much part of the experience as the products themselves. High ceilings, abundant natural light, and interiors featuring Philippine reclaimed wood create an inviting, relaxing environment that encourages mindful shopping. The use of local materials and sustainable elements reflect MUJI’s global commitment to eco-conscious living.
Shoppers will find an extensive array of MUJI’s beloved home items—from modular storage systems and minimalist furniture to kitchenware and organizational tools—each crafted with the brand’s signature focus on simplicity, durability, and user-centered design. MUJI’s understated aesthetics and practical functionality continue to make it a go-to destination for those looking to create a harmonious living space.
Expanding beyond traditional retail, MUJI Glorietta also introduces several services designed to enhance the shopping experience. Highlights include an In-House Alteration service for clothing, a Water Refill Station promoting sustainability, and the popular Stamp Table for personalized stationery. The Service Counter also provides personalized consultations, home delivery options, and assistance with larger orders, making it easier than ever to incorporate MUJI’s philosophy into daily living.
A Taste of Everyday Comfort
In a bid to foster deeper connections between people and nature, MUJI Glorietta offers a curated collection of green plants, selected for their resilience in tropical climates. These easy-to-maintain plants serve as simple, effective ways to bring tranquility and life into urban homes.
Additionally, the store will host a series of workshops and events ranging from Compact Living seminars to Aroma and Scent Blending sessions. These experiences align with MUJI’s goal of helping customers discover practical lifestyle solutions while building a community rooted in shared values.
Further enhancing the flagship experience is the introduction of the MUJI Bakery, a first in the Philippines. Freshly baked daily, the bakery offers a range of breads inspired by both Japanese and Filipino flavors—think pandesal, croissants, and ensaymada—all crafted in-house. Complementing the bakery is MUJI’s largest Coffee Counter to date, featuring coffee made with beans sourced from Benguet farmers, house-made curry rice meals, and indulgent Hokkaido milk soft serve ice cream.
A Hub for Community and Sustainable Living
MUJI Glorietta is more than just a retail space; it’s a community hub built around sustainable practices, mindful shopping, and thoughtful design. Through its expanded product range, personalized services, and commitment to quality, MUJI continues to provide simple yet meaningful solutions for modern living.
The flagship store officially opened its doors on April 25, 2025, located at Glorietta 3 (Levels 1, 2, and 3) in Makati City. It operates Monday to Thursday from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and Friday to Sunday from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
