CEBU CITY, Philippines -Tahche Celebrates its 10th Anniversary!
Tahche Outsourcing celebrated its 10th Anniversary with a gala attended by the company’s employees and esteemed guests on the 8th of September, held at Tahche’s new home at the 1Nito Tower in the heart of Cebu City’s business district. The event also marked the formal opening of its new headquarters in Cebu City.
Amy Siy, Tahche’s Country Manager – Philippines, kicked off the festivities with a heartfelt message of gratitude to the clients, partners, and especially team members who have been vital to the company’s continuous growth throughout the decade.
Bryan Luoma, Tahche’s CEO and founder, delivered a rousing message of the company’s journey from its humble beginnings in a small apartment building in rural Philippines, to its current home at the center of one of the country’s major metropolises. He also shared his plans for the future, and remained steadfast to the vision of Tahche becoming the number one destination for global companies looking for world-class Filipino talents.
It was also an opportunity for Tahche to recognize its team members’ loyalty and hard work over the past decade and to thank our clients for trusting us with their business. This was highlighted by the recognition of several team members who have been with the organization for years (including a beloved couple who met, started a family, and continues to grow professionally in Tahche).
Any Filipino company party will not be complete without team members showing off their world-class talents – not just in their respective jobs, but also in singing and dancing. Three of Tahche’s employees left the crowd (and those watching online) awestruck with their song and dance renditions.
The night was capped with a dance performance by the Aurum Dance Company featuring Filipino folk dance.
Tahche is a company built on passion and die-hard service and the tenth-year milestone was a way to thank its partners, employees, and clients. The company remains committed to providing qualitative and innovative outsourcing solutions to its clients worldwide, and it looks forward to further improving and expanding its services in building world-class teams F.A.S.T.
Tahche Announces Opening of New Manila Office
06 September 2022 – MANILA, Philippines – Tahche Outsourcing opened a new office in Manila, Philippines, last September 1, 2022, for their 10th year.
Tahche is proud to announce the opening of its new Manila office. The company was founded on the dream of representing and matching competent Filipino talents with global partners needing a reliable offshore workforce.
Since then, they have been helping their clients find top candidates across various industries by leveraging their extensive network and expertise. The outsourcing company now wants to bring that same commitment and dedication through the help of its new workplace in Manila.
Tahche’s team members are primarily office-based, but they also accommodate a WFH set-up. They have always been big believers in the power of collaboration and teamwork, and it’s always been a dream of the company to have an office space in Manila where their employees could all come together regularly and collaborate in person.
Opening an office in the centre of Manila is more than just a perk for their employees. It helps the outsourcing company to create the kind of community that has the heart and soul of this unique city; which has also been through so much upheaval in recent years. Tahche says that it allows them to give back to the Filipino community—and they couldn’t be happier about it.
Tahche hosted a small celebration for their employees in the new office to celebrate this milestone. It began with a ribbon-cutting ceremony from the owners, who visualized this day right from when the company started in 2012 in its first office in Cebu.
The employees also actively took part in the event. A speech, then, from the owners was given regarding the company’s growth, all about business process outsourcing, plans, employee appreciation, and general announcements.
New Branch, New Opportunities
Tahche’s new office branch in Manila also supports its growth in Asia and fosters the spirit of innovation and collaboration.
“Tahche is a talent-enabled staffing agency that represents skillful Filipino talents to global companies that establish or expand their presence in the Philippines. With a team of seasoned recruiters and a pool of passionate candidates. The goal has always been forming Tahche to be the first choice of companies who want to outsource contingent workforce requirements to the Philippines,” said Bryan Luoma, Tahche’s CEO.
The world has changed. Companies that never considered outsourcing before are taking a more global approach to business and are finding alternative solutions to staffing issues. Tahche is the first of its kind to bridge the gap between local talent and international companies with its innovative platform where clients can source, hire and manage Philippine-based talent projects online anywhere in the world.
Tahche Outsourcing has had a lot of experience helping small to medium-sized companies take their business to the next level and cross borders. They are experts in offshore services, including all aspects of hiring, culture building, project management, time zone management and multiple languages. They don’t just help find the talent; they help build the team that gets results for your business.
Tahche’s Net Promoter Score (NPS) surpasses industry average in its most recent survey
Cebu, Philippines—Tahche earned an unprecedented Net Promoter Score (NPS)® of 73 for customer satisfaction in their most recent May 2022 survey.
“We’ve always had the goal to be world-class, not just in our services, but also in our customers’ experience. This remains a core focus for us, and the ongoing efforts of our people have again paid off,” said BryanLuoma, CEO of Tahche. “It is deeply gratifying that our clients acknowledged our efforts with a high NPS rating. The credit goes to every member of our team who goes the extra mile every day, delivering excellence to our clients,” concluded Luoma.
NPS ranks customer satisfaction based on a single-question survey to customers, “How likely is it that you would recommend Tahche to a friend or colleague?” Then, the NPS score is calculated as a single number in the range of -100 to +100, with higher scores being better than low scores.
According to Retently 2022 NPS Benchmark for B2B, the average Net Promoter Score for B2B industries ranges from 25 to 68, with an NPS of 50 to 53 being considered “good” and above 70 “excellent” or “world-class”. Tahche’s May 2022 NPS 73 score soared well above industry benchmarks, propelling it into the “excellent” or “world-class” range.
In addition to the overall NPS, the company scored highly on individual questions about customer satisfaction, including two of Tahche’s most favored qualities according to its clients—great communication and high-value employees.
“This is truly a fantastic result achieved by few companies worldwide. Customer satisfaction is one of the most important measures of business success. We work hard to deliver excellence and value to our clients and partners,” the CEO added.
Among the companies and market leaders with the highest Net Promoter Score in 2022 were Netflix (NPS of 68), Starbucks (NPS of 77), Amazon (NPS of 62), Airbnb (NPS of 74), and Tesla with an astounding NPS of 96.

Tahche’s annual team summer outing
Cebu, Philippines—After two long years of remote working and virtual meetings, Tahche is finally back on track! And first on its list—a team summer outing.
With the sun shining bright and a day packed with lots of getting-to-know and team-building activities, the fun-filled event allowed the team to meet and bond with others, even those outside their circles.
One of the highlights of the team summer outing was The Amazing Race which was incredible as it challenged the teams to work together to overcome roadblocks and obstacles as they raced around the game.
The night of the same day, with the happy-go-lucky crowd of rockstars ready to have fun, Tahche hosted a “Back To The Wild”-themed dinner and after-party.
Indeed, it was an enjoyable experience for everyone who came and those who joined the celebration virtually. An excellent opportunity for the team to learn and share valuable insights and reinforce our core values.
It’s a full-day event, but here are some highlights!

Tahche Celebrates Halloween 2021!
Businesses spend thousands of dollars every year on ways to make their employees happier and more satisfied with their jobs. For a small expenditure on candy, decorations, and prizes for best costumes, Halloween becomes a human resources bonanza. It gives employees an opportunity to defuse tension, take a well-earned break, and have some fun at work with co-workers and customers.
But since the pandemic, we at Tahche decided to make it simpler and worth it. Last Oct 29, though participation was done virtually, many of the employees joined and brought out their creativity in their allotted workspace. We believe that having such a diverse group of people at the company, Halloween is a holiday that everyone can celebrate together here at Tahche, may you be working from home or at the office. Thus making it an important one for employee engagement and morale.
There were awards for best & most creative costumes. For office decorations, the best-decorated work area was awarded as well. Employees vote to determine winners.
Noted that everyone is asked to follow a few simple rules:
Decorations should not violate fire or safety codes.
Employees are responsible for clean-up after the event.
Costumes should be office appropriate and not offensive to co-workers and peers.
And try to keep it available until the end of the month.
Here are a few spooky yet fun scenes during our Tahche Halloween celebration.
Tahche Gives Free Eye Checkup to its Employees
“Future will always look blurred no matter how strong eyesight you have!”
― Mehmet Murat ildan–
Tahche employees also had the chance to choose a eyeglass frame of their preference.
When I was younger, I never really cared much about wearing my prescribed glasses. I feel that they look so big and heavy on my face and that they just don’t fit me. Eventually, I did learn to appreciate them and wear them to help me but like most apps we use today, I also tend to forget that my eyesight needs to be checked every once in a while.
Handling the company website and social media as well as other required meetings via zoom, I’m in front of the computer almost 80% of the time (or my phone if I’m away from the computer). And good glasses have become a much-needed facet of my work. I kept reminding myself to have my eye check-up on my own time, but I keep forgetting to do it.
Now, I’m glad that I’m part of a company that was able to send us a reminder that free eye checkups are part of our benefits as employees.
The HR team scheduled this check-up last Thursday and Friday along with a team of skilled ophthalmologists. They stayed at the Ayala Corporate Center from 3 pm to 9 pm and assisted the Tahche employees (including those working from home who visited the office just for this) to assess their current eyesight condition.
They even brought a variety of eye frames that fits every person’s face and style that one can choose from if they prefer to have a different set of eyeglasses to use.
This might be considered as a simple employee benefit to some, but I’m glad that it’s part of work that I totally enjoy doing every day. Thank you Tahche!

Tahche showed how they value the workforce,” said Tahche Customer Support Manager Norie.
