History 01
— Robert Collier “ Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day-in and day-out .”
Ascend Trading Enterprise was incorporated in Singapore in 2020, with the aim of providing pharmaceutical products manufactured in the Philippines to export markets in Papua New Guinea and West Africa. Since then we have switched our focus to the provision of interior and exterior decoration products with the focus on high end luxury goods. With this in mind Ascend started exporting high end tables made from single and joined slabs of tropical hard wood to our customers in Spain. Since then we have expanded our line to include solid wood flooring, as well as other furniture made from various tropical hard woods and rattan (natural rattan for indoor and synthetic rattan for outdoor). Bath fittings from natural stone (Marble, River Stone and Petrified wood) Through it all we have focused on providing high quality products with attention to fine detail. All our wood products are sourced from countries in South East Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines.
Ascend has recently started working with contractors in Europe and Australia to provide bespoke interior solutions for both commercial and residential projects. In 2022 Ascend has also started working with a local contractor in the Philippines for the distribution and installation of solid wood flooring and outdoor decking solutions. Since the start of 2022 Ascend has been growing our international connections and is actively seeking new markets for our products in countries such as The Netherlands, Belgium, Taiwan, Korea and Japan.
