==History==
Tambunting Pawnshop was established by Don Ildefonso Tan Bunting in 1906. He was a son of a Chinese immigrant from Fujian, China. He owned horse-drawn carriages that could be seen traveling through the streets of old Manila collecting garbage. The Government paid him just five centavos per trashcan. Over years of hard effort, he was able to accumulate real estate and other small investments. Some of this real estate was located in Divisoria, Tondo, Malabon and Navotas.
After years of continuous expansion in his business, Don Ildefonso tried the shipping business, and later started up the original pawnshop in the town of Santa Cruz, Manila with the name "Casa Agencia de Empeños de Ildefonso Tam Bunting".
By the time of World War II, his pawnshop had expanded to different locations inside and outside Metro Manila. By the 1990s, the newer generation of the Tambunting family already operated more than 300 branches nationwide. As of this year, Tambunting Pawnshop already has more than 1000 branches nationwide and is still expanding.
