It took several months of experimentation, product sampling and planning before the first ZAGU store was launched in April of 1999. ZAGU was pioneered by a young enterprising lady with a degree in Food Science from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.
To this date, ZAGU has blended more than 40 million pearl shakes, a pretty good number for something that was widely predicted as a passing fad. Now, ZAGU has grown from a tiny kiosk to a current network of over 290 outlets nationwide. ZAGU has also gained recognition locally through awards such as the National Consumers Quality Awards and the Parangal ng Bayan People Choice Awards and International recognition through our partner in Sydney, Australia.
