If you’re looking for ways to augment your income during these challenging times, you don’t need to look farther than your kitchen to start a business. As you may have observed, many Filipinos have already started putting up their own little ventures by offering something that we all love—food.

From ube pandesal to baked sushi, to new twists to fries and cheesecakes, our enterprising kababayans have shown their resiliency and inventiveness through these food ventures.

If you’d like to start a home business from your kitchen, here are some tips that may help you in establishing one.

1. Think of the product you want to offer. Are you or someone in your family good in baking or cooking? Capitalize on your skill and passion in determining the product you want to offer.

2. Know your target market. Ask yourself if the product you’d like to put out there has a market. Food, for one, can have an immediate market—your family, colleagues, and friends.

3. Make your product worth your customers’ money. Of course it goes without saying that you have to ensure that the items you sell should satisfy your customers. Offer products that they will like so that they can tell their other friends and relatives about it. This way, more people will be interested in your products.

4. Invest in good equipment. If you’re going to pursue a business in food, make sure that you have quality equipment. At Hanabishi, we have a range of products that can help you with your cooking and baking needs. broilers, grillers, fryers, and electric cookers. For those who are into baking, we have our mixers, food processors, ovens, and more.

5. Make it more convenient for customers to purchase your products. For example, most businesses have gone online these days and customers can easily buy the product of their choice and have it delivered safely and securely to their home. We have been running our e-commerce site for about two years now and with the new conditions dictated by the pandemic, we had to review its system and implement the necessary updates in its features to address the anticipated influx of online shoppers. Our customers can now easily place an order with just a few clicks and taps on their computers and mobile devices. Likewise, we are now offering them the option to have their products delivered or picked up from our warehouse.

6. Set up a Facebook or Instagram account. Most Filipinos are social media users and being on FB and IG makes you more visible to them. In fact, according to a recent Nielsen Homepanel Tack-on survey, 49 percent of Filipinos who shop groceries online prefer Facebook. In making your goods available through these social media apps, make sure that you take good photos. Food, most specially, need to look delicious and enticing to attract customers.

7. Be forward-looking. Expect challenges to come your way and make sure you keep up with consumers’ changing behavior. It’s not easy, but with hard work and foresight, success will come your way.

A face mask bearing design elements inspired by the Philippine Flag became an emblem of heroism and nationalism, especially during the time of COVID-19.

Ayala Foundation, in partnership with the National Historical Commission of the Philippines, officially launched on May 28 the Magiting Face Mask, which bears the colors of the Philippine flag and the eight-rayed sun.

The face mask serves to honor our Filipino front-liners and essential workers who are making a huge sacrifice for the nation to contain the spread of the pandemic.

The Magiting Face Mask was one of the key features of the commemoration of the Battle of Alapan in Imus, Cavite. All guests, including the honor guards from the Philippine Navy, wore the mask to commemorate the first unfurling of the Philippine Flag in 1898.

The mask was also simultaneously launched at the First Digital Magiting Conference organized by Ayala Foundation, the Department of Education, and the NHCP on the same day. The conference, which gathered 200 Araling Panlipunan and Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao teachers from Region III, discussed teaching tools, methods, and other resources to teach history and love of country, as the education system prepares for the “new normal.” The conference was also viewed by over 1,500 participants through Facebook Live.

“We hope to distribute the Magiting Face Mask to our front-liners and essential workers, in recognition of their heroism during this time,” said Ruel Maranan, president of Ayala Foundation. “Inaanyayahan rin namin kayo na patuloy na ipagmalaki ang ating bansa kahit kailan, kahit saan. Sama-sama tayong maging magiting—sa isip, sa salita, at sa gawa.”

Said NHCP Chairman Rene Escalante: “Sa taong ito, sa halip na mamigay ng maliliit na watawat ang NHCP, sa tulong ng Ayala Foundation, ay mamimigay kami ng face mask na may nakaguhit na simbolo ng ating bandila. Nawa’y pag nakita niyo ito, maalala nyo ang kabayanihan ng mga rebolusyonaryong Filipino noong 1898 at ng mga COVID-19 front-liners natin sa kasalukuyang panahon.”

The Magiting Face Mask is part of Ayala Foundation’s Maging Magiting program, which calls on Filipinos to express their love of country by giving our national symbols, especially the Philippine flag, the respect they deserve.

In 2019 Ayala Foundation and its partners distributed Philippine flags to 10,000 public schools, police stations, military camps, and other government offices across all 17 regions of the country.

This year, the foundation and its partners seek to distribute the face mask to community front-liners and essential workers. The DepEd teachers who participated in the Digital Magiting Conference were among the first to receive the masks.

Ayala Foundation President Ruel Maranan also officially turned over Magiting Face Mask to the Philippine National Police, through Police Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar of the Interagency Task Force for Emerging Infectious Diseases.

Magiting Face Masks were also delivered to veterans of the Philippine military. Receiving the masks from Maranan were Undersecretary Reynaldo Mapagu, undersecretary for Civil, Veterans, and Reservists Affairs of the Department of National Defense; Undersecretary Ernesto Carolina, administrator of the Philippine Veterans Affairs Office; and Retired Commodore Salvador Esguerra, vice president for operations of the Veterans Federation of the Philippines. Also present at the turnover was NHCP executive director B. Gen. Restituto Aguilar.

At the turnover, Usec. Mapagu thanked Ayala Foundation for the face masks, which, he said, will help “protect our most important national resource—our citizens.”

For his part, Usec. Carolina noted the value of “continuing partnership between the public and private sector” during this time.” 05/06/2020 (The Lifestyle Portal)
