Who We Are
Kalamansi Collective was founded in 2022 by Filipino-Canadian Journalist Kris Pangilinan.
We are a clothing & lifestyle brand that aims to pay homage to immigrant families and celebrate the fruits of their labour.
Through creative designs and cultural references, Kalamansi Collective highlights the immense sacrifice of immigrant families who have braved starting anew in a different country and have dedicated their lives to provide a better future.
Inspired by the citrus fruit, Calamondin (also known as Calamansi, Kalamansi, Philippine Lime), Kalamansi Collective wants to bring awareness to a little known fruit that packs a punch! With the world now embracing the greatness of other Asian fruits, we believe kalamansi has the potential to be the next big citrus!
