Shopee teams up with Go Negosyo to drive digital agriculture in the Philippines

Tweet

Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, partners with Go Negosyo, the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship’s official advocacy, to digitize the agricultural industry in the Philippines. The initiative equipped farmers with the skills and knowledge to sell their homegrown products online. 

Through this partnership, local farmers can promote their products directly to consumers, as well as expand their reach nationwide via Shopee. They can also reach more customers at minimal cost, allowing them to deliver quality local produce to online shoppers at competitive and affordable prices.

Martin Yu, Associate Director, Shopee Philippines, said, “Through our partnership with Go Negosyo, our local farmers will be able to tap the full potential of e-commerce. By being on Shopee, they are able to expand their market reach by leveraging our platform’s wide user base as well as enjoy a seamless online selling experience. At the same time, consumers will enjoy greater access to organic and homegrown products while supporting our local farmers.” 

The project kicked off with a special Shopee University class geared toward agricultural cooperatives. Farmers and agri-entrepreneurs owners were taught the basics and benefits of e-commerce.

Ginggay Hontiveros-Malvar, Adviser for Agripreneurship at Go Negosyo, said, “We are grateful to Shopee for providing an inclusive and convenient way for farmers to sell their products online. Through this project, Shopee is enabling the agricultural industry to grow and touch base with consumers nationwide. We look forward to strengthening our partnership and creating more initiatives that benefit small entrepreneurs.”

Go Negosyo-affiliated farmers, which participated in the class, will showcase their local all-natural products on Shopee from September 18 to 20. Users can look forward to discounts of up to 20% off on various local agricultural products. There will also be an additional ₱100 off for a minimum spend of ₱500 with the voucher SPHGOLOCAL.

Puregold, GCash launch cash-in, payment via barcode

Tweet

Industry leaders Puregold, Globe and GCash have worked together to launch another innovative mobile-based service that will enhance their customers’ experience nationwide—the Cash-In via Barcode and Payment via Barcode.

The two services will be available in 368 Puregold branches all over the country, marking another milestone in the partnership between the three companies who have pioneered digital innovations in retail, telecommunications and financial technology in the Philippines. 

“Our goal here is simple: make life easier, more convenient and more secure for our users through fintech. We cannot think of a better way to do this than with Puregold, whose supermarkets serve millions of Filipinos by providing what they need for their homes and businesses,” said JM Aujero, Chief Commercial Officer for Payments at Mynt, the company behind GCash.

To use cash-in via barcode, Puregold shoppers can go to the cashier, choose cash in, open their GCash app, and enter the amount they wish to load into their mobile wallet. The cashier scans their phones showing the Puregold barcode and collects the payment. Both customer and cashier receive confirmation of their transaction via text.

GCash, the Philippines’ leading mobile wallet, expects a huge proportion of its 20-million user base will benefit from the Cash-In via Barcode and Payment via Barcode every month, as Puregold is one of the country’s biggest supermarket chains. It was also the first national supermarket chain to accept mobile payments via GCash.

“Puregold and GCash have been long-time partners in providing useful innovations to Filipinos. By tapping Puregold checkout counters as cash-in points, we encourage more people to discover and enjoy the convenience of going cashless,” Fred Levy, Mynt’s Chief Commercial Officer for Transfers, said. 

GCash and Puregold already introduced the GCash Scan to Pay (STP) via Barcode, a barcode scanning payment scheme integrated into Puregold’s point of sale (POS) in July. It continues to facilitate transactions and improve both merchant and customer experience.

Aside from cash-in and payment via barcode, GCash users can also pay bills and cash out at Puregold branches. The supermarket chain is also the top merchant partner for which GCredit, the trust score based, fully mobile credit line of GCash, is used.

FamilyMart has your caffeine fix covered with new ‘Coffee Creations’

Tweet

Heads up, coffee junkies! A new set of beverages just made FamilyMart your new favorite destination for a satisfying yet affordable caffeine fix. Blended exclusively by renowned Japanese coffee company UCC for FamilyMart, this new line of drinks called “Coffee Creations” is yours to enjoy starting September 16. 

Whether you’re looking for a morning kick, or in need of a treat for a chill night, Coffee Creations has your caffeine craving covered at any time of the day. And whether you take your coffee hot or iced, black or otherwise, Coffee Creations is expertly and lovingly brewed in variants that best suit your preference or mood. 

The unique experience of Coffee Creations begins with the vision of the marbling as milk is poured and beautifully blends with the brewed coffee, followed by a whiff of its signature nutty aroma. Once you start sipping, the flavor hits the spot, balancing between sweetness and bitterness. To achieve this trademark taste, FamilyMart collaborated with UCC to use a mix of medium roast arabica and robusta beans, perfecting a blend that suits the discerning Filipino palate. 

Coffee Creations’ hot brewed coffee comes in two serving sizes—12 oz (P55) and 16 oz (P65). Every order comes with two sachets of either brown or white sugar, as well as two sachets of creamer. Meanwhile the iced variation is available in a 16 oz serving size, which is served black (P60), sweetened (P60) or with milk (P65). Whichever way you like it, no matter what time of the day, each cup offers great value for your money.

Coffee Creations is great enough to enjoy on its own, but a cup also goes best with your favorite FamilyMart breakfast meals, snacks, and pastries. It’s just one of the exciting new ways that FamilyMart makes sure you’ve got your daily needs covered—making you truly feel it when they say, “#WeGotchuFam”!
