Globe Business

Being a mom of a family of 5, budgeting is kind hard and yes, the struggle is effin' real lalo na sa panahon ngayon kung saan ang tataas ng presyo ng mga bilihin. Kaya naman this momma is into selling na! yes, I just started selling my handmade scrunchies online and thankfully friends and fam were super supportive. That's why I am planning to take the next step and think about leveling up for having a small business. That's why this topic is a must-read for mompreneurs in the making out there.

Yes, likas na ata for us, Pinoys and magnegosyo.  Filipino entrepreneurs are always levelling up, determinadong umasenso at malago ang munting negosyo and reapeat. Kaya naman if you are a maabilidad at di pahuhuling Pinoy entrep, I'm sure you are continuously looking for new ways to grow you business. And with that, you get to enjoy Globe more because Globe Business reaffirms its commitment to micro, small, and medium enterprises, or MSMEs, as a trusted partner that helps them achieve business breakthroughs and continued success through digitalization.


According to the latest data from the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), 99% of businesses in the Philippines are MSMEs. They help reduce unemployment by creating jobs for the growing labor force, making up 63% of the country’s total manpower. They stimulate economic development and serve as valuable partners to major enterprises and consumers.

 

“We see our MSMEs as modern-day heroes who play a critical role in the country’s economy. That’s why we believe that if we help them succeed, we also help our nation succeed,” said Ernest Cu, President and Chief Executive Officer of Globe.

 

Globe Business’ commitment to MSMEs. MSMEs face different challenges everyday–from getting and retaining customers, streamlining operations, tracking inventory and deliveries, and even making sure their employees are happy; however they remain unfazed, being agile and quick to adapt to the demands of the times. As they seek continuous growth, Globe Business strives to journey with them through this period of heightened digital adoption so they can overcome their perceived boundaries and achieve more success.


Globe Business Reaffirms Commitment to  MSMEs’ “Tuloy-tuloy na Success” with Digital Transformation


Globe Business seeks to go beyond the surface by helping MSMEs with innovations that accelerate business growth, expertise that guides businesses forward, and unparalleled care that supports their journeys, so they can achieve more business breakthroughs para sa tuloy-tuloy na success,” said KD Dizon, MSME Group Head, Globe Business.

Make sure you have something for your loved ones and friends, a little something nice, to spread the holiday cheer!  Keep the holiday tradition of gifting alive and give it extra purpose this year, show homegrown brands some love and shop for items that help you give back to a good cause.

Now on its fifth year, Globe Business’ Gift Local campaign is putting the spotlight on micro, small, and medium local social enterprises that support the livelihood of farmers, local designers, and indigenous communities, as well as those who follow sustainable practices behind every product they put on the shelf. The initiative intends to enable these purpose-led businesses to thrive especially at this time when many Filipinos are affected by unemployment due to the pandemic.

This year’s campaign aims to bring out the goodness behind each purchase by giving Filipinos the opportunity to choose holiday gifts that give twice the joy -- to the recipient and to the local business and community that they benefit,” said KD Dizon, Head of MSME Group, Globe Business. 

Here are some of the local brands that you may include on your Christmas shopping and gifting list.
