Lorenzo Vega’s work reflects a clear direction: reworking everyday Filipino experiences to operate at a higher standard.
In hospitality, this is most visible in the reinvention of Sicilian Roast. A full reset across product, operations, and experience led to a shift from steady performance to exponential growth in peak months, alongside the rapid scaling of new locations—redefining how upscale casual dining is delivered in Manila.
In commerce, My Shopping Box addresses access at scale. With over half a million users and company-operated warehouses in Los Angeles and Milan, it functions as a direct gateway to global retail, extending reach beyond traditional geographic limitations.
Prime Cuts by Double Day operates at the highest tier of food distribution. As the exclusive importer of Matsusaka beef from Ito Ranch, it introduces a level of provenance and product discipline that remains rare in the local market.
In design, Siklesa reflects a longer-term direction—reinterpreting a traditional Filipino form into a contemporary, and increasingly electric, vehicle. It is a KATHA Award-winning product, recognized for its contribution to Philippine design and its potential as a modern cultural object.
Taken together, these efforts point to a consistent approach: elevating existing categories and bringing them closer to global standards, while maintaining a distinctly local point of view. The result is not simply growth, but a shift in expectations—where Filipino-led ventures operate at a higher level, by design.
