Deovir_Recto_black_and_White.jpgIt was 1978 and Manila was the shopping and university capital of the Philippines. It was also the same year when Virginia Ocampo opened Deovir's flagship store in C.M. Recto, Manila.  Virginia started the business with just selling paper and pens.  After a year, she saw the ever-increasing need of the market and the possibility of improving the diversity of her products. She began introducing engineering and architectural supplies.

 

 

Deovir_Q.Blvd._Sepia.jpgIn 1985, she opened the second store of Deovir at Quezon Boulevard, Quiapo, Manila. Virginia loved painting as a hobby so it was natural for her to combine her passion for art and her business.  The two stores of Deovir were now carrying art supplies like poster color to cater to her artist clientele. In 1988, Deovir brought Royal Talens to the Philippines. This was the time when artist quality fine art materials were hard to find. The company made the brands Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Amsterdam and Talens available to the Filipino artist. Deovir quickly established itself as one of the few art stores in the country catering to professional artists, hobbyists, teachers and students.

After more than two decades, from starting with pen and paper, Deovir was now carrying more artist's brands like Golden, Artograph, Koh-i-noor and Momiji to name a few.

 

 

 

 

 

SM_North_2.jpgAs a company, Deovir wanted to provide their customers with the best service. They saw the need to join the Filipino's mall culture. Deovir was now even more committed to providing their customers with high quality art materials at a more convenient location. In 2007, Deovir opened its new art store at the 3rd Floor of SM City North EDSA. Deovir's customers in Quezon City were now able to conveniently buy their art supplies without going to Manila.
