All Day Convenience Store is a convenience store division of All Value Holdings Inc., a subsidiary of Villar Group of Companies owned by a Filipino entrepreneur and a former Philippine senator, Manny Villar.[3] All Day Convenience Store was the former Finds Convenience Store Inc., an experimental business of Villar which was established in 2008 with an initial 40 branches in Metro Manila.[4][5]

History

In 2008, then-senator Manny Villar ventured into the convenience store business and started Finds Convenience Store Inc. as his "experimental business".[4][5] Finds grew to 40 branches along Metro Manila and served as a convenience store outlet for his housing business, Camella Homes and at his mall chain, Starmall.

Seeing the potential of Finds, Villar took it seriously and re-branded it as All Day Convenience Store in 2014.[6]

In his interview with Entrepreneur Philippines, he said that Finds was one of his small and experimental companies, and All Day is a serious attempt.[4]

Taking up the challenge against his giant competitors like 7-Eleven and MiniStop, he expanded the branches of All Day to 80 along with the conversion of 40 existing branches of Finds Convenience Store Inc. to All Day Convenience Store.[7][8] He is optimistic to expand the All Day Convenience Store brand as a "True Filipino convenience store".[6] At that time, new convenience store brands are coming into the Philippines when Puregold Price Club Inc. has tapped Lawson to open its branches in the Philippines, while SM unveils their venture with Indonesian convenience store, Alfamart and Ayala Land just introduced FamilyMart to the Philippines.[9] The predominant convenience stores in the country, 7-Eleven which is managed by Victor Paterno and Ministop which is managed by John Gokongwei has just sprouted to Mindanao areas.[10][11]

In All Day's recent expansion, it sprouted to more branches in Luzon, concentrating on condominiums, business towers, and residential areas. The expansion then grew from being a convenience store to a minimart as "All Day Mart" with its debut at Starmall Prima Taguig (now Vista Mall Taguig) in May 2015.[12] All Day also came to furniture retail business with the introduction of "All Home". It reached 13 stores following the opening of All Home in Antipolo last July 2016.[13] It soon grew as a supermarket, branded as All Day Supermart. The supermarket initially opened branches at Vista Mall Taguig, Starmall EDSA Shaw in Mandaluyong, and Vista Mall Sta. Rosa in Santa Rosa, Laguna.[14] In 2016, All Day Supermarket is expanding their branches in Bataan and Las Piñas with a total of 20,000 square meters (220,000 sq ft) of floor space.[15]

From the experiment on forming Finds Convenience Store Inc., it expanded to a huge "All Day" mega-franchise, forming the parent company, All Value Holdings Inc.

However, despite the expansion of All Day brands, All Day Convenience Store reduced their number of stores from 100 to 80+ as of 2016, but this is in result of the conversion of some All Day Convenience Store to All Day Mart and All Day Supermarket like their branches in Las Piñas and Vista Mall Taguig.[12] However, Villar is still up for expansion of All Day Convenience Store with the growth and expansion to his land developments across the country.
