The world’s leading men’s lifestyle authority arrives in the country through MEGA Global Licensing Inc.
AGC Power Holdings Corp. (AGC PHC), through its subsidiary MEGA Global Licensing Inc. (MGLI), announces the upcoming launch of GQ Philippines in Summer 2026, under license from Condé Nast. This marks another significant milestone in AGC PHC’s ongoing global expansion, further strengthening its longstanding relationship with Condé Nast following the successful introductions of Vogue Philippines and Allure Philippines.

The edition is committed to championing inclusivity, diversity, and sustainability, while celebrating Filipino creativity and identity.
