In the summer of 2012, Abba Napa, Eliza Antonino, and Jon Syjuco teamed up to form The Moment Group, believing that Manilas dining scene was having a moment. Backed by sound business sense and a keen understanding of the Filipino diners evolving tastes, they created and opened their first three restaurants within eight months of each other. Since then, Moment has gone on to build homegrown brands and enter into partnerships that have drawn lines, caught media attention, generated market demand, and prompted loyal patrons.

In its first decade in F&B, Moment has established 13 home-grown food brands, under which 50 doors have collectively been opened in and outside of Metro Manila. These include Manam Comfort Filipino, 8Cuts Burgers, Ooma Bold Japanese, Mo Cookies, HuChi Southeast Eats, Shawa Wama, The Mess Hall, Moment Catering, Bank Bar, Mecha Uma, Manams Mama Nams, and the delivery-only Pancit Pancitan and Cuckoo Chicken. Apart from this, Moment also owns, manages, and operates the Philippine franchise of the world-famous xiaolongbao brand, Din Tai Fung.

Moment has also launched its own in-house delivery website (and app) momentfood.com, which is supported by an in-house fleet called Mo'Go.
