History
The Maverick was established in September 2015 after its founder began producing homemade pomades for personal use and for friends and family. Positive feedback encouraged the creation of a commercial brand focused on high-quality men’s hairstyling products.
Initially known primarily for its pomades, the company gradually expanded into a broader men’s lifestyle brand. Over the following years, it introduced additional styling products, shampoos, conditioners, fragrances, and accessories while growing its retail presence throughout the Philippines. According to the company, it now works with more than 100 retail and reseller partners nationwide. [3]
Brand philosophy
The Maverick positions itself around three core values:
-
Creativity

Progress
The company states that it aims to produce grooming products that combine effective performance with quality craftsmanship while promoting Filipino-made products. It also emphasizes sustainable business practices, ethical sourcing, and environmentally conscious production where possible. [4]
Its current brand manifesto centers on the idea of “Confidence Through Hair,” describing itself as a brand that creates products for men who take pride in their appearance and hairstyling. [5]
