Our story
Built for brands that believes in a future
Ocho Maeve Retail Initiative was founded on a simple belief: every brand deserves merchandise that tells its story with the same care and craft that went into building the business itself.
Why we exist
Ocho Maeve started our business in 2004. We have made a name for ourselves making and retailing our swimwear brand TeePeeTo and Ocho Maeve. We are a trusted swimwear brand which provides Ultra Violet Protective swimwear to adults to children.
With so much experience under our wings dealing with manufacturing, production and quality control, we have embarked on another journey through sustainability customization. Helping businesses achieve sustainable retail product production.
Today we partner with retailers, hospitality groups, and consumer brands across Southeast Asia and beyond — helping them turn branded merchandise into a genuine revenue stream and loyalty driver.
