This issue, SME Community Philippines features eco-preneurs Chit Juan, Reena Francisco and Jeannie Javelosa and their ECHOStore, a unique retail concept that specializes in homegrown, fair trade products and promotes activities to promote the earth-friendly lifestyle.
Our second issue for 2009 is dedicated to the “business of going green”. Through these reports, we hope to provide insights why ‘green is good’ for SMEs and how ’social mission’ can be effectively embedded into the company bottom line.
Meanwhile, Issue No. 3, which has just rolled off the press, features award-winning entrepreneurs Arden and Jen Siarot, whose Cebu-based company started as a small operation in the kitchen of their apartment and is now a multi-million peso export firm. And Elaine Lasac of Goldnest Inc, one of the fastest growing brands of trusted quality eggs in the market.
SME Community Philippines is a component of Plantersbank’s advocacy program for Enabling Entrepreneurs.
