Huawei SD-Branch Solution Empowers Personal Collection Build an Intelligent and Secure Branch Network

Personal Collection, an industry-leading representative of the Philippine retail industry

Personal Collection is one of the largest retail and direct selling companies in the Philippines, with over 660 branches and millions of registered dealers nationwide. In 2024, they expanded internationally, launching operations in Malaysia. The company offers a wide range of personal care, home care, health, and wellness products, sold directly to consumers through a vast network of dealers. This model empowers people to become entrepreneurs within their communities.

Personal Collection is dedicated to providing the “Great Life to Everyone” and champions sustainability with initiatives like switching to biodegradable packaging to help reduce plastic waste. Known for strong community-building efforts, they actively support people in achieving financial independence through direct selling.

With the development of retail digitalization services, the company faces three challenges:

Dealer registrations and transactions are primarily handled in branches and through digital channels. To support these operations, Personal Collection has multiple cloud-based systems and platforms, which increase security risks. It’s essential to implement robust security measures across all channels to safeguard data and ensure secure transactions.

With the company’s rapid growth and the ongoing opening of new branches, deploying workstations and network devices—especially in remote and rural areas—has become increasingly challenging. Devices require manual configuration, leading to a high workload for initial setups and replacements.

The current network lacks visibility into device status and bandwidth usage, making it hard to isolate faults. Different management platforms are used across various locations, resulting in redundant investments and increased costs.
