What began as a one-woman venture in virtual assistance has grown into a rising force in the country’s digital marketing landscape. On July 5, Carthal Manila, the brainchild of founder Thara Fajardo, celebrated the grand opening of its first content creation studio in the heart of Marikina City—a significant milestone in the agency’s journey to empower brands through impactful digital storytelling.

Situated at 52 Rainbow Street, SSS Village, the newly launched 110-square-meter studio is purpose-built to meet the ever-evolving demands of modern content creation. Designed for versatility and accessibility, the space caters to a range of projects—from food and beverage shoots to podcast recordings, portrait sessions, and even live-selling broadcasts.
“From starting out as a virtual assistant to leading one of today’s emerging digital marketing agencies, Carthal Manila is proof that big dreams—when fueled by purpose and grit—can become thriving realities,” said Fajardo during the launch event.
Since its founding, Carthal Manila has been committed to supporting MSMEs and Filipino entrepreneurs in elevating their online presence. The new studio stands as a physical testament to that mission, offering clients a professional, collaborative space where creative ideas can come to life.

The studio launch was made even more memorable with the support of Blu Coffee Distributors and La Cimbali—brands equally known for their emphasis on quality and creative collaboration.
