Grupo Tahanan

Grupo Tahanan (Tahanan Group of Companies), is a multi-service company that provides solutions to housing, remittance, telecommunications and travel needs of all clients.

Spearheaded and managed by its proprietress, Ms. Leonila Cabradilla-Antolin, Grupo Tahanan started in 2001 as a service attending to housing requirements- hence the core name Tahanan (House / Home). Through years of building consistent and reliable customer service, it gained the trust of its growing clientele and began serving remittance solutions to its portfolio. After which, bagging more loyal customers and requirements eventually led the company to venture into global top-up solutions for telecommunications. With business partners, the range of the company’s services further established travel bookings & tours (Viajes)- with Asian countries as recommended destinations and Philippines as feature highlight.

To-date, yet humble in many ways, Grupo Tahanan has 15 years of successful operations under its belt and continue to become stronger trusted partner in providing extensive and competitive services at par with local and global standards.

GRASSROOTS AND HUMBLE BEGINNINGS

Ms. Leonila Cabradilla-Antolin traces her beginnings when she sat foot during the May 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona. That time, she lived with her sister and started working as a domestic helper. With a humble employment for years, she tried her luck in submitting her CV when the Philippine National Bank (PNB) started its remittance operations. More than meeting the requirements for the position, the manager saw a promising attitude where she was hired, trained and gained numerous experience. With hunger and passion for service and learning, she also became an agent of Banco Bilbao for financial and insurance services.

Ms. Leonila is very grateful to the people who saw her potential and provided her an opportunity to learn and grow in different aspects of financial services from opening of accounts, remittances, loans, pensions among others.

While learning the complexities of finance, her gratitude for the opportunities fueled her to give back to help fellow overseas workers and colleagues who are looking for housing necessities.

With growing network of people trusting in her abilities, she realized that her gratis work has to be professionalized and legalized in order to provide better services and accountability. 15 years ago, she officially began to establish the first of her companies- Tahanan 2005, S.L.

FUTURE PLANS

The journey to success will always have its ups and downs. Ms. Leonila doesn’t consider herself as full-grown successful somebody, but will and shall always be someone who continues to learn, grow and help, whatever and whenever she can. She will always be open to opportunities that will provide solutions to clients’ needs.
