Our Story
BUILT ON QUALITY,
WOVEN THROUGH TIME
From a modest hosiery workshop to a multi-brand powerhouse, Burlington's journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and relentless commitment to quality.
1967
The Humble Threads of a Legacy
The story begins under a different name: Mil-Oro Manufacturing Corp. Nestled in Quezon City, the company started with a very modest fleet of machines and a singular focus — crafting quality socks for men, women, and children. Though the operation was small, the ambition was woven tight into every pair of hosiery that left the factory floor.
Founding1970s
Moving to the Heart of Business
By the early 1970s, the company's growth necessitated a move to San Antonio Village in Makati City — positioning itself at the heart of the country's rising commercial hub. A physical shift that signaled an even larger ambition brewing within.
Expansion1994
Defining the Identity
Management made a pivotal decision in 1994 to rename the company Burlington Industries Philippines, Inc. This wasn't just a name change — it was a declaration of intent. Burlington began curating an impressive portfolio of brands, becoming the trademark owner for names that would define comfort for Filipinos: Burlington, Puma, Dri+, Bally, Camp, Biofresh, Knit, and Omo.
Rebranding2020
Pivoting Through the Pandemic
When 2020 brought the world to a standstill, Burlington's legacy was put to the ultimate test. Faced with the challenges of COVID-19, the company didn't just wait it out. Burlington quickly expanded production to include face masks, disinfectants, and protective gear — while investing in new printing machinery to support diverse product lines.

Data, Sustainability, and Generations
Burlington is now a blend of tradition and high-tech efficiency — real-time data systems replacing manual tracking, sharper decision-making, and a deliberate turn toward sustainability. Eco-friendly raw materials, circular production, and the Bearlington Initiative mark a company as committed to the planet as it is to the people wearing their products.
