Arden Classic Inc. A Classic Success They say that competition brings out the worst in people but the best in products. Competition, in fact, made the products of Arden Classic, Inc. (ACI) to the shelves of some of the world famous, high-end specialty shops abroad, such as Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Harrods, Vanucci, the Ritz Carlton chain shops, the Tavola Collection by Ogetti, Ralph Polo and Ralph Lauren. This also made Arden a recipient in 2002 of the Golden Shell Awards for Manufacturing Excellence and the President Ramon Magsaysay Award. Arden Siarot, owner, was also named Entrepreneur of the Year in 2003 by the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry and named one of the Men and Women of Science by DOST during its 50th year anniversary in 2008. Arden and Jen Siarot began as manufacturers of miniature furniture later becoming a sub-contractor in fabricating intricate brass items in addition to their main line. With the growing demand by foreign buyers, Arden became a legitimate furniture maker and exporter specializing in handcrafted home furnishings accented with coco inlay, silver, brass or metal accessories. Creativity and intricacy are inherent in Arden’s designs. However, this does not ensure the loyalty of foreign customers. Rejects and reworks caused by inferior quality metal accessories rose as high as 10% of the production volume. Metal accessories are plated items subcontracted to 29 DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY VII Product Catalogue 2011 electroplaters who have limited facilities. In many occasions, standard quality, required volume and delivery time could not be met. Much as the Siarots would like to have their own electroplating facility, they could not afford the cost of one. It was at this time that DOST came to the picture. A technical team was invited by Arden to visit his site. As a result, the team recommended that an expert from DOST’s Metal Industry Research and Development Center (MIRDC) should assess the company’s plated accessories. An in-house electroplating facility was recommended to control and improve quality. To address this technology upgrade, DOST enrolled ACI in SET-UP. Electroplating assistance was extended and training was provided on the operation of the electroplating facility. As a result, rejects were reduced to 3% or less. This in turn generated a savings of more than one million and gross sales rose as high as more than 20 million in 2006 compared to more than 6 million prior to SET-UP. An increase of more than 100% in monthly production volume was observed. Access to new markets was also made possible. Creativity and technology are indeed twin partners to growth. This is the story of Arden Classic Inc. This is a classic story of success. Arden Classic Inc. Soong II, Brgy. Mactan, Lapu-lapu City, Cebu Mr. Arden A. Siarot President / Gen. Mgr.
