Cafe LiBrew is a Milk Tea & Specialty Coffee Shop founded in Bogo City, Cebu by young, married entrepreneur couple Kate & Jan Hilado, born out of their love & passion for Books (Libro) & Brewed Coffee & Teas, thus the name “LiBrew” (combination of Libro & Brew).
Kate is a native Bogohanon and a graduate of Business major in Marketing. Before going into the Milk Tea business, she was a banker for almost 3 years, while also doing some online business on the side, selling luxury bags & shoes. She is a self-confessed Milk Tea addict and has traveled personally to Taiwan to taste the Original Milk Teas in Taichung and to learn the Milk Tea business there, guaranteeing their customers an authentic Taiwan Milk Tea experience! In the company, she is the one in charge in handling the day-to-day operations, purchasing, hiring and employment.
Jan on the other hand is the coffee guy who loves brewing his specialty coffee everyday while reading his favorite books from his mini-library. He has also co-founded & started several businesses in the past and is currently operating a Travel & Tours company (Lovely Planet Travels), a Property Rental Management company and a Coffee shop & Library business in Mandaue. He is also the one serving as the Marketing Consultant & Business & Product Development Officer in all these companies.
Together, as a team, they opened their first Cafe LiBrew outlet in Bogo City on May 2019, and in just a short 6 month period before their franchise development started, they have already captured the local Bogohanons loyalty and taste preference when it comes to Milk Teas, Fruit Teas, Frappes & Specialty Coffees, and are now ready to dominate the entire Philippine market through a proven franchise business system.
