MANILA, PHILIPPINES – The Islander factory outlet store has announced its final sale before its closure on January 1, 2024.
The Facebook page “Islander Factory Outlet” announced that it will be having its final sale as it prepares to shut its doors on January 1, 2024. The post garnered various reactions from the online community.
The post, filled with gratitude, thanked everyone who has been a part of the Islander journey – from loyal customers to dedicated employees and supportive families. The announcement sparks mixed emotions among Islander enthusiasts and former factory workers.

However, Islander Footwear Manufacturing Corporation (IFMC) clarified that only the Islander Factory Outlet Store is closing its doors, not the entire company. The closure announcement was specific to the outlet store, marking the end of an era for that particular branch.
“It’s the Outlet which is closing, the factory is still not operational until now but wala pa mag closed,” IFMC said.

To all who worked with us, patronized us, shared with us, enjoyed with us, laughed and cried with us, persevered and believed in us, our friends, colleagues, families….

Last July 1, 2021, the Islander factory in Tungkop, Minglanilla Cebu, faced a halt in operations due to a lack of orders. Since then, the factory has not produced a single pair of slippers or sandals.
