Tweet

Meet the newest eco-friendly spot in the Philippines! NutriAsia, the country’s leading producer of well-loved condiments and sauces, has launched a new kind of sustainability hub with multiple features that help Filipinos embrace a greener way of living. 

Strategically located at the bus stop along 30th street beside Track 30th in Bonifacio Global City (BGC), the NutriAsia EcoStation is a convenient neighborhood haven that people can enjoy.

The NutriAsia EcoStation is an eco-friendly oasis nestled among the skyscrapers of Bonifacio Global City

Nestled among the skyscrapers that dot the Bonifacio Global City landscape, the EcoStation houses NutriAsia’s latest green innovation, Select & Collect, a convenient and more sustainable way of shopping and restocking your well-loved NutriAsia kitchen staples. A simple online process through the website https://selectandcollect.ph/ allows customers to select and pay for their pantry favorites. Then, they can choose a preferred time to pick up their purchases at either the curbside of the JY Campos Center, the BYOB (Bring Your Own Bote) booth in the Mind Museum, or the Select and Collect lockers at the NutriAsia EcoStation. This system enables people to collect their purchases at their own time and use their own reusable shopping bags. It is a concept that keeps purchasing pantry essentials safe by minimizing contact and it also allows people to lessen their carbon footprint through reducing unnecessary packaging.

The NutriAsia EcoStation also features a dispenser that gives free water refills for those with their own bottles and containers. It is NutriAsia’s way of encouraging people to embrace a refilling mind set through reusing containers they already have. Perfect for BGC joggers to grab a refreshing water break along their route! To access it, people merely have to scan the QR Code in the NutriAsia EcoStation which will bring them to the BYOB (Bring Your Own Bote) website. Here, they can generate a unique QR code that needs to be scanned using the dispenser’s camera to get their free water refills.

The dispenser gives free water refills for your reusable containers when you visit the NutriAsia Ecostation!

The Nutriasia Ecostation harnesses solar-energy to provide people convenient and accessible options to a more sustainable lifestyle and to power up an integrated watering system that irrigates the plants found in the EcoStation.

This automated locker serves as a convenient pickup point for your Select & Collect purchases.

“Through the NutriAsia Ecostation, we want to provide people more sustainable options that they can easily inject into their everyday routines. Giving people simple alternatives to reduce their impact on the environment helps push the sustainability conversation forward. We hope that our EcoStation is the first of many; we need to see more sustainable concepts in the future,” said James Lim, NutriAsia’s Head of Corporate Marketing and Communications.

By making more sustainable choices in our lives, we are already doing our part to impact our world in a kinder way! Visit the NutriAsia EcoStation for easy ways to lead a more sustainable lifestyle.

Shopee Launches Shopee Thursdays with the Department of Trade and Industry to Help MSMEs Thrive in the E-commerce Space

Tweet

As e-commerce takes on greater importance for both consumers and sellers, Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, partners with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to offer in-depth discussions about online selling to support the growth of online businesses through Shopee Thursdays. These masterclass sessions aim to equip existing and aspiring online entrepreneurs with the right tools and information on how to use data to operate effectively in the e-commerce space.

E-commerce is considered a crucial part of the global retail framework. When the pandemic hit, its role became even more critical as physical businesses closed and people were encouraged to stay at home for safety reasons. With the implementation of lockdown measures, more than 65 percent of business establishments had to close temporarily, and only 29 percent of enterprises remained open with limited operations. This led to people turning to online platforms to shop for their needs and entrepreneurs to shift to digital platforms to sustain their businesses

Martin Yu, Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “Shopee is excited to partner with the Department of Trade and Industry to equip MSMEs with proper knowledge and skills to thrive in the e-commerce space through Shopee Thursdays. As many entrepreneurs transition to online platforms like Shopee, it is important that they learn the basics of online selling and to maximize the e-commerce space to its full potential. We will continue to collaborate with DTI to support MSMEs in their e-commerce journey to success.”

Jean Pacheco, Assistant Secretary at the Department of Trade and Industry, said, “At DTI, we believe that every business is essential for the Philippine economy to prosper, and that is why it is our goal to support them in any way possible. With leading marketplace platforms like Shopee, we can reach more people who want to expand their business and learn more about e-commerce. It is an honor for us to work with a company that prioritizes the local community and we will keep on partnering with organizations like Shopee, to uplift Filipino entrepreneurs.”

Sellers can learn essential tips on how they can expand their businesses on Shopee in the upcoming sessions. On June 17, entrepreneurs will understand and learn how to better manage shop operations, inventory, warehouse processes, and employees. On June 24, the masterclass session will focus on the potential of data and how entrepreneurs can use it to improve their shop’s performance.

The opening of the 1000th Xiaomi Store amid pressure of Covid-19 pandemic is testament to the strong potential of Xiaomi’s global retail business

Global technology leader Xiaomi today announced it has opened over 1000 Xiaomi Stores in global markets*, marking a major milestone in the company’s global expansion. To celebrate this momentous occasion, Xiaomi is holding a 1000 Xiaomi Store event both online and offline, offering exclusive gifts and promotional sales as an expression of gratitude to the Mi Fans and loyal customers that have helped the company reach these new heights.

Against all odds - 1000th Xiaomi Store opens following fastest growth year yet

This significant feat was achieved despite the challenging circumstances faced by brick-and-mortar shops around the world. Xiaomi Store success defying this trend is a testament to the strength of the Xiaomi brand among consumers and the enormous potential for Xiaomi’s business to prosper in global markets.

Xiaomi Stores are independent offline retail shops established and operated by Xiaomi’s own partners. All of the global Xiaomi Stores are run in accordance with Xiaomi standards and exclusively sell officially authorized Xiaomi products. Xiaomi Stores are therefore high-standard, official representatives of the company’s offline retail business.

In the Philippines, Xiaomi has been working relentlessly in increasing its presence on-ground. It targets to open 36 Mi Stores and cover 4,200 stores by end of year, so that more Filipinos can experience Xiaomi no matter where they are.

To intensify its after-sales services, Xiaomi has put up 9 Authorized Service Centers and 15 Collection Points nationwide with more coming in the next few months. It also opened its Toll free contact centers (1-800-131-20048 for PLDT/Smart, 1-800-8386-5529 for GLOBE), which is open from Monday to Friday at 9:00AM to 6:00 PM. Consumers may also send an e-mail at service.ph@xiaomi.com.

Global Xiaomi Store campaign - 5 years on

The first global Xiaomi Store opened its doors to our Mi Fans in Singapore in 2016. Since then, the number of shop fronts have expanded rapidly across the globe.

To mark this momentous occasion, Xiaomi is launching the 1000 Xiaomi Stores celebration both online and offline as a way of giving back to the countless Xiaomi consumers and Mi Fans that have supported the company and believed in its products over the years.

The celebrations will kick off with an online promotional event along with large sales available at most offline Xiaomi Stores. Exclusive event gifts will come with a specially designed Xiaomi logo composed of the phrase “Thank You” in dozens of different languages - an expression of gratitude to all of the Mi Fans who have made this milestone possible.

Customers who will avail eligible models from 1000 Mi stores promotion can get exclusive items until June 13, 2021 at select Mi stores.
