Red Box, Philippines- Matrix Entertainment, Inc.
The international Red Box franchise started up in Hong Kong with a small
karaoke establishment then known as California Red. Karaoke being an enduringly popular
nightlife choice in Hong Kong, California Red was successful almost from its opening, but
soon recognized the need to differentiate itself and in an increasingly competitive
environment.
By the late 1990s, California Red had reinvented itself as Red Box,
offering the same karaoke enjoyment its guests had come to expect in an improved, more
refined atmosphere with great food, advanced technology, guaranteed security, and WiFi
capability, setting the new standard for excellence in karaoke entertainment.
The 'elevated karaoke' concept was an instant hit, and by the year
2000 Red Box had dramatically expanded its global presence with multiple outlets in both
Hong Kong and Malaysia, spreading the brand's reputation as not just a karaoke destination,
but a lifestyle hub and gathering place for people of all ages at nearly all hours of
the day.
December of 2003 saw the opening of the first Red Box outlet in Manila,
at the 3rd level of Greenbelt 3 in Makati City and has now expanded to the 4th Level of
TriNoma, at the North Triangle, Quezon City.
Red Box in the Philippines was conceptualized by Matrix Entertainment Inc.,
the management team of which was also behind different F&B establishments such as Banana Leaf
Curry House and The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Philippines. Far from relying on the achievements
of its predecessors, Red Box Philippines has built on the brand's dedication to innovation by
incorporating alternative recreation options such as poker and billiards; enticing more diners
through its incredibly affordable budget buffets; and establishing strong bonds with the local
music industry to offer guests unique attractions like our exclusive record label rooms and
surprise visits from local and foreign music celebrities.
Today, Red Box is the undisputed leader in the Asian karaoke industry, and
continues to enhance and define its complete - and completely enjoyable recreation lounge
experience.
