Cebu-grown retail chain Prince Warehouse Inc., which operates nationwide, has partnered with Vivant Energy’s Retail Electricity Supplier (RES) arm, COREnergy. The collaboration supports smarter and greener ways of powering its retail operations.
The partnership enables Prince Warehouse to optimize how energy supports its retail operations, focusing on productivity, efficiency, and long-term cost management. By working with COREnergy, the retailer gains greater flexibility in aligning its energy requirements with evolving business needs, while supporting sustainability objectives through smarter energy choices.
“To remain relevant and responsive to our customers, we continue to rethink how we operate. Energy plays a critical role in keeping our stores efficient and resilient,” said Blake Nelson Go, Vice President for Business Development and Finance of Prince Warehouse, Inc. “Partnering with COREnergy allows us to make more informed energy decisions that support our growth, while maintaining reliable service for our customers.”
The collaboration comes at a time when more commercial and industrial customers are gaining access to greater energy choice, following recent policy developments that lowered the threshold to 100kW peak for participation in the Retail Competition and Open Access (RCOA) framework. With this shift, businesses with qualifying electricity consumption now have the option to explore alternatives beyond their traditional utility, including working with licensed RES such as COREnergy.
Through COREnergy, businesses are able to manage energy more strategically, from optimizing supply arrangements to integrating sustainability considerations into long-term operational planning. The partnership with Prince Warehouse reflects Vivant Energy’s continued focus on helping community-integrated businesses strengthen operational stability while adapting to a more competitive and evolving energy landscape.
As more organizations reassess how energy impacts profitability, productivity, and performance, COREnergy continues to work with forward-looking businesses seeking smarter ways by giving them greater Power of Choice in how they source and manage energy.
