At the heart of the
festivities were the kiddie seller-run stalls, where young entrepreneurs traded
their toys for ledgers and stepped into the shoes of real-world business
owners. These future CEOs showcased remarkable creativity, beaming with pride
as they closed their very first sales and pitched their unique ideas to an
impressed crowd of adults and fellow young learners. Every booth told a story
of independence, bringing the brand’s mission of “Todo-Focus”
(concentration) and “Bilis Diskarte” (quick thinking and mental sharpness)
to life as children navigated the exciting challenges of a marketplace with
infectious enthusiasm.
The energy remained
high as the kids dove headfirst into a flurry of hands-on activities designed
to sharpen their problem-solving skills. From the intricate components of the
Robothink PH workshop to the strategic thinking found in the business sessions,
every corner of the event was a stimulating experience for their young brains.
Serial entrepreneur and motivational
speaker RJ Ledesma shared his experience and valuable insights on starting a
business.
The "Nutty
Scientist" stole the show with a series of interactive experiments that
made complex science seem like pure magic, while serial entrepreneur and
motivational speaker RJ Ledesma shared a treasure trove of wisdom during the
"Kiddie CEO Talk," inspiring participants to dream big and act with
confidence.
"At Unilab, we
believe in empowering families to lead healthy and fulfilling lives. It is
important for us to make available high-quality products so that they are
supported at every stage of growth,” said Jennifer Bulao, Unilab Assistant Vice
President General Manager, “We developed Nutroplex to be part of kids' daily
routines to help them feel ready to try, explore, and take on new
challenges—turning simple playtime into meaningful, confidence-building
moments.”
Sunshine Aquino,
Unilab Assistant Vice President of Marketing, highlighted how Market Plays
allowed families to experience Alagang Unilab beyond the product shelf. “This
event was designed to be more than just an activity. It’s a space where
children can practice todo-focus and bilis-diskarte through hands-on
experience, while parents see how everyday moments of play can become
meaningful opportunities for learning and growth,” she shared, “In the same way
Nutroplex helps boost concentration and promote agile thinking, experiences
like MarketPlays encourage kids to try, explore, and take on new challenges,”
she said. “When children are properly nourished, they are more ready to turn
simple play into confidence-building moments—reinforcing our commitment to
support them as they grow, learn, and thrive.”
This journey toward
independence was fueled by more than just imagination. Nutroplex provided the
nutritional foundation necessary for these high-energy milestones. Formulated
with essential nutrients like iron and Vitamin B-complex (B1, B6, and B12), the
multivitamin-mineral supplement supports “Todo-Focus (concentration) and “Bilis
Diskarte” (quick thinking and mental sharpness) that the young leaders
displayed throughout the fair.
The experience was
further enriched by support from Nutroplex’s partner organizations, whose
activities reinforced learning beyond the marketplace. The event featured
engaging workshops and hands-on learning stations from education partners
Nullspace, S.A.M Singapore Math, and Robothink, while official trade partner
Watsons Philippines supported the event by bringing Nutroplex and other Unilab
brands closer to families. Through guided activities and mission cards,
children and parents were encouraged to explore each station, making the
experience more immersive, purposeful, and rewarding.
Nutroplex MarketPlays:
Playground for Future CEOs proved that when children are provided with the
right nutritional support and a supportive environment, every moment of play
becomes a building block for a successful future. As families celebrated these early
milestones, the event stood as a testament to the power of nurturing a child’s
potential through focus, health, and a spirit of adventure.
