It's going to be interesting to see what happens with this over the next few weeks. The push to get US auditors is the start to bigger things here in the US. A positive sign moving from the Asian stock market to the US.

So, as the BoNa people like to say, this is indeed a “place to meet people, make new friends, argue politics, discuss fashion and even fall in love.” Step a little off the beaten path and you’ll find it. From Elizalde, take the turn at Elsie Gaches Street (hang a left if you’re coming from President’s Avenue and take a right if you’re coming from the Elizalde Gate) and turn right at the next corner, T.M. Kalaw Street. They’ve got a big sign at the corner of the building, and are in front of Jeek’s. Parking is available in front or on the street. Like me, you’ll discover BoNa Coffee’s “little piece of something wonderful.”

A view from a recent Member’s Night at Bona Coffee- “Inside, the atmosphere was energized with people’s conversations, renewed and new acquaintances, as well, the on-going coffee-tasting event, a contest deciding which of the three new BoNa Coffee concoctions will be THE concoction Unlimited shots of the three mystery concoctions, made by the baristas, were flying from the bar, while the score was being tallied up on a nearby chalkboard. At the end of the evening, the winning concoction was the Pink Panther, made by BoNa barista, Christian Magpayo. BoNa Coffee also raffled two Friends of BoNa, BNCC’s official stuff toys for our Compassion Campaign.”

BoNa Coffee Holdings Corp. Announces BoNa Coffee Company Announces Expansion and the Construction of 4th BoNa Coffee Company Branch - Nuvali Tuesday March 10, 2009, 11:34 am EDT Buzz up! Print MANILA, PHILIPPINES--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 10, 2009 -- BoNa Coffee Holdings Corp. (Other OTC:BCHC.PK - News) is pleased to announce that the construction of BoNa Coffee Company's fourth branch, in the E-Services Building, Lakeside Evozone, Nuvali, Sta. Rosa, Laguna, will commence immediately. The target opening date is June 9, 2009.
Contracts have been signed, and the official turnover of the unit took place at the site on Monday, March 9, 2009. Nuvali, the newest development of Ayala Land, one of the Philippines' biggest developers, is located in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, and covers a land area of 1,600 hectares (6.1 square miles/3,953 acres) and is slated to be a future regional center south of Manila.
Nuvali is a self-sufficient and eco-aware community in Laguna that covers all major areas -- residential, business, commercial, recreational, and educational. Homes, office buildings, shops, restaurants, and schools are attuned to each other through the rich natural environment, technological hubs, and people-oriented infrastructure. It balances sustainable living -- family, work, and leisure -- all in the beautiful landscape that is Nuvali.
The E-Services Building, where the branch will be located, is an office facility that will specifically cater to business process outsourcing firms. The 4-story building will have a gross leasable area of approximately 12,000 square meters (130,680 square feet) and is designed to address the technical requirements of BPO firms such as telco/data redundancy, 100% back-up power, flexible a/c systems, large floor plates and retail/support amenities to address the locators' unique 24/7 operations. The E-Services Building will also be a LEED certified "green" facility, and is the first of three buildings that will form part of the Nuvali BPO campus.
Occupants of the E-Services Building include familiar contact center names, such as Convergys, Infonyx and People Support Center, all of which have 24/7 operations and will benefit from BoNa's corresponding 24/7 hours.
This branch is the second BoNa Coffee branch to be opened in 2009, and the fourth BoNa Coffee Shop in total. With an area of approximately 109.07 square meters (approximately 1,188 square feet), this branch will be the largest BoNa Coffee Shop to date. BoNa embraces using only eco-friendly materials to match Nuvali's eco-friendly theme.
With 24/7 operating hours and absolutely free WIFI, BoNa Coffee Company's newest branch will continue to provide the perfect ambiance for conversation, studying, art and everything that makes up the BoNa lifestyle.

Fantastic news here folks. This compnay just keeps doing it right, record earnings in 2008 and now signing papers for store expansion as they said they wanted to do.
The float on this is only 6.8 million shares. Should move very easily upward.
