Three furniture carpenters sought the help of the Padiernoses in finding a means of livelihood, and the rest, as they say, is export history. Started in 1985 as a rattan and wicker furniture company, Pacific Arts and Décor International (PADI) ventured abroad the following year.
Today, PADI is the acknowledged pioneer in sofa beds - an emerging concept in space
planning and contract furniture.
Its sofa beds and recliners are singled out for bringing out the Filipino character in a predominantly Western concept of furniture through indigenous wood carving, rattan and wicker weaves.
"Earning recognition for our achievement is our biggest fulfillment," says Emmanuel and Rosa Padiernos.
