Established in 1994 by a family of wine lovers with one ambition in mind: to bring quality California wines to the developing Philippine market.
1994
Happy Living was awarded exclusive distributorship of Beringer, the company’s flagship brand.
A few months after the Beringer launch, another feather was added to the cap with the signing of another exclusivity – the French classic varietal pioneers, Fortant de France and Robert Skalli.
2000
This was followed a couple of years later with the partnership with Vina Valdivieso, a prime Chilean Sparkling and Still Wine producer.
Happy Living became synonymous with renowned American wines. Among the prestigious Napa Valley and Sonoma County wineries that the company continues to represent are Chateau Montelena, Joseph Phelps, Cakebread Cellars, Freemark Abbey and Schramsberg.
Mid - 2000s
Happy Living embarked on a new journey with a group of food and wine aficionados whose passions, business acumens and shared goals looked into strengthening Happy Living’s relationships with current and future partners as well as discovering more avenues for the company to grow and expand.
2014
The company expands its team, portfolio and business facility.
In sync with its business expansion, a selection of curated Old-World labels have been introduced to the market. Among the wineries represented are Champagne Duval Leroy, Chateau Croix de Labrie, Domaine Prieure Roch, and Domaine de Mauperthuis.
Soon after, entry of more iconic producers as well as modern and easy to understand labels from Italy, France, Australia, and Happy Living’s forte – the United States of America – joined the company’s range of wines and spirits.
2016
On November 2017, Happy Living moved to a new home to accommodate its growing team and portfolio – a space that would house its warehouse, office and Tasting Room.
The Tasting Room was Happy Living’s answer to every wine drinker’s needs – a gem within the heart of the Makati business district that allowed guests to discover wine at their own pace.

On June 2019, Happy Living opens its Cebu division with the goal to expand its coverage outside Metro Manila and to cater to potential clients in the regions of Visayas and Mindanao area
