The Philippine food and beverage industry continues to thrive, offering exciting opportunities for aspiring entrepreneurs looking to invest in trusted and fast-growing brands. Among the country’s emerging success stories are Don Macchiatos Philippines, Don Lemon Philippines, and KUKU Frozen Yogurt—three homegrown brands under the DMGC Business Group that have built a reputation for delivering quality products at affordable prices while empowering thousands of Filipinos through franchising.
Driven by innovation, affordability, and a passion for entrepreneurship, DMGC Business Group has grown from a single coffee cart into one of the country’s fastest-growing franchise groups. Today, the company continues to expand nationwide while staying true to its mission of creating business opportunities and making a meaningful difference in the communities it serves.
Don Macchiatos Philippines: Cebu’s First 39ers Coffee
Launched on September 28, 2022, Don Macchiatos Philippines—Cebu’s First 39ers Coffee—introduced a fresh approach to coffee by making premium-tasting beverages accessible to everyone. With its signature ₱39 Iced Caramel Macchiato, the brand quickly captured the hearts of coffee lovers and changed the perception that great coffee has to come with a premium price.
The brand was founded by Miss Bethel Jae San Juan, who is originally from Pinamungajan, Cebu, together with her husband from Inayawan, Cebu City. Their entrepreneurial journey began with the opening of the very first Don Macchiatos coffee cart in Urgello, Cebu City. What started as a humble venture has since grown into one of the country’s fastest-growing coffee brands, now with more than 1,000 branches nationwide.
Further strengthening the brand’s nationwide appeal, acclaimed actor Daniel Padilla serves as the official brand ambassador, helping bring Don Macchiatos closer to millions of Filipino coffee lovers while representing the brand’s youthful, dynamic, and proudly Filipino identity.
Don Lemon Philippines: Refreshingly Affordable
Following the remarkable success of Don Macchiatos, DMGC Business Group expanded its beverage portfolio with the launch of Don Lemon Philippines in 2024.
Known for its refreshing lemonade drinks at budget-friendly prices, Don Lemon opened its first branch in Tisa, Cebu and has since expanded to more than 200 branches nationwide. The brand continues to attract customers seeking refreshing beverages made for the Philippine climate.
One of its featured branches is located along P. Del Rosario Street, beside the Don Macchiatos USC branch near Sto. Rosario Church in Cebu City, together with many other locations across the country.
KUKU Frozen Yogurt: A Sweet Business Opportunity
Completing the DMGC Business Group family is KUKU Frozen Yogurt, which also launched in 2024.
Inspired by the phrase “Keep Up, Keep Up,” KUKU reflects the company’s commitment to continuous innovation and growth. Offering premium frozen yogurt at affordable prices, the brand has become a favorite dessert destination for families, students, and young professionals.
Customers can choose from:
- Plain – ₱59
- Combo – ₱79
- Overload – ₱149
As KUKU continues expanding in Cebu and key cities across the Philippines, it offers another exciting opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to invest in a fast-growing dessert brand.
