Carousell celebrates seventh anniversary with a brand new visual identity

Carousell, one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing classifieds, celebrated its seventh anniversary with the launch of a new visual identity, together with milestones including reaching its 250th million listing and fourfold revenue growth in 2018.

This visual identity refresh signifies the brand’s progression and growth, while putting a spotlight on its core purpose of enabling shared possibilities amongst users of the online marketplace. Throughout the years, Carousell has been harnessing mutually beneficial opportunities to empower users, and celebrated numerous success stories of users who turned their passions into livelihoods.

Co-founder and CEO, Quek Siu Rui epitomised Carousell’s win-win opportunities when he sold his MacBook on Carousell to a father with a young daughter. The father wanted his daughter to learn about the internet but could not afford a brand new computer. He turned to Carousell, and this made Siu Rui realise that Carousell is a platform that would enable possibilities for users with each transaction.

“Our mission has not changed since day one. We want to inspire every person in the world to start selling. Seven years ago, we saw that there was no easy way to sell stuff online and existing platforms were tedious and uninspiring to use. Hence, we launched a mobile app that made selling as easy as taking a photo, buying as simple as chatting, and we made it social. It really set the standard for what mobile classifieds should be. Now, we’ve grown our presence to six markets, expanded from general classifieds to properties and automobiles and recorded over 250 million listings,” shared Quek Siu Rui, Co-founder and CEO of Carousell.

“This proves that Carousell is serving a real need, and is more relevant than ever in today’s marketplace, where consumption has grown rapidly and sustainability has become a huge focus. In Southeast Asia, there’s a population of over 640 million people, where two-thirds are still just coming online and experiencing the magic of the Internet. The refreshed visual identity showcases Carousell’s uniqueness where transactions go way beyond dollars and cents; where friendships are forged, stories are shared and interests get discovered.”

Carousell also announced a fourfold revenue growth in 2018. This strong growth trajectory is a testament to Carousell’s business strategy, and an affirmation that the brand is progressing in the right direction. Prior to implementing monetisation streams in mid-2017, Carousell has been laser-focused on building a great platform, enhancing product features, improving the user experience as well as scaling across the region.

Carousell’s seventh anniversary celebration culminated at Carousel land, an annual flagship event that celebrates its community. It spanned across two halls at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, and was filled with Carousellers selling items, running workshops and organising community activities like retrogaming and board gaming. In line with bringing its refreshed brand to life, Carouselland upped the ante with a myriad of sensory and participatory activities that highlighted the shared connections and possibilities that this platform brings to all users and the public, beyond mere transactions.

With more than 300 vendors classified under seven thematic clusters that covered everything from Style to Property and even Alternate Reality, visitors got to choose from a wide range of shopping and activity choices according to their personal interests. These included handicraft workshops, community activities and even tips on how to groom cars, helmed by Carousellers from all walks of life who discovered and turned their dreams to reality on the platform. Plenty of Instagrammable spots awaited visitors as they explored the event ground.


To further showcase the win-win experiences enabled by Carousell, a special ‘Match and Win-win’ card was given to all visitors of Carouselland. Visitors then searched for the person holding a matching card, through the Carousell app and social media. Each successful pair got to redeem their prizes at the Redemption booth.

Carouselland 2019 was held at Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Halls A & B in Singapore from 16-18 August.

Kim Chiu is the New Face of Nature's Way Aloe Vera System

Good hair speaks louder than words. My hair routine is just like others, but I do take a rest from using shampoo every week to prevent dryness and breakage. I always buy organic conditioner serum with no parabens to maintain the shine and make it healthy-looking. I only colored once a year and have its roots retouched every 5 months. Aside from regular shampoo and conditioner, I also take my oral vitamins everyday for my tresses.

When I attended Personal Collection Direct Selling, Inc. (PCDSI) event last week. I was surprised that they were launching an organic shampoo and conditioner just in time for the formal launch of Ms. Kim Chu as their newest celebrity ambassador for Nature's Way Aloe Vera System, PCDSI's flagship hair care brand.

Personal Collection Direct Selling, Inc. (PCDSI) announced that actress and recording artist Kim Chiu has joined the PC family during the brand’s press event last August 16, 2019 titled “Born to Shine.”

Being a famous celebrity, Kim knows a thing or two about beautiful hair. From rocking soft waves, everyday up-dos and free-flowing hair, to red carpet-ready hairstyles, Kim only trusts Nature's Way Aloe Vera System to keep her crowning glory strong and healthy so she can take on the world with confidence.

"Dapat maganda ang hair kasi diyan nanggagaling ang confidence mo, kasi kung hindi ka masaya sa hair mo, hindi ka rin confident," Kim shares. "Hair is one of the most important tools in being a confident woman."

“Kim is the perfect face for Nature's Way Aloe Vera System because, like our well-loved ingredient aloe vera, Kim is one of the most adored artists of our time. With her cheerful personality, natural confidence, and the effort she puts into everything she does, Kim perfectly represents what Nature’s Way stands for,” says Nikki Blanco, Senior Brand Manager for Nature’s Way Aloe Vera System. “I am proud that she is part of the Nature’s Way family, truly an inspiring example of a modern and confident woman with amazing hair.”

As the new endorser of Nature’s Way Aloe Vera System, Kim will appear in all elements of the brand's marketing campaigns including print, digital advertising, in-store displays, social media, events, etc.

Watch behind-the-scene footage of Kim's first Nature's Way Aloe Vera advertising shoot at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZRnpFX4sMI.

Hope Springs With LG’s Washabilities Laundry Shop

LG, in close collaboration with Hopewell Integrated School (HIS) and Bigwash, endeavors to empower individuals with special needs through a sustainable livelihood program.

To jumpstart the project, LG and Bigwash worked together to get the shop up and running by taking care of the construction and the training of the staff, which consists of HIS alumnus. LG donated 5 sets of commercial washers and dryers, 1 commercial refrigerator, and 1 43” TV set. Unilever also lent a hand by donating laundry detergents specially formulated for the commercial washers.

Expounding on the company’s role in the program, LG Managing Director Inkwun Heo states, “We are firm believers in HIS’s goal of providing these children a future to look forward to. We want to empower them as much as we are able to. Our intuitive design provides accessibility through straightforward simplicity.”

Lets get ready to rumble for the WWE Smackdown Live on September 20!

If youre a fan or WWE, you should probably know by now that WWE Superstar Sheamus is in the PH promoting the much awaited WWE Smackdown live in Manila on September 20!. 

I finally got to meet him in person last August 15 for the exclusive meet and greet with the media held at Skinny Mike's. It was awesome to know a bit of his personality. There were so many no holds barred questions thrown at him during the presscon and he was by far the coolest international WWE Superstar who obliged and who was sport enough to answer each and everyone. Including who he wants to beat in the rink next time and he coolly answered "Brock". 

I was about to ask him what's the story behind his famous mohawk but I wasnt called. But just the same,  meeting and having a selfie with him in person was more than enough. I just cant wait to see him and the rest of the WWE Superstars this coming September. 

“I’ve always said that what makes a country great are the people in it,” Sheamus added. “The food is amazing, the people here are amazing. Everyone here is so proud to be from the Philippines- everyone is so nice and respectable. Most importantly, everyone here loves the WWE!”



For the WWE Universe in the Philippines, the talk of the town was the return of four-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Sheamus on Thursday, August 15th, 2019. The Celtic Warrior’s 24-hours in the Philippines included an obstacle run and a meet & greet with select members of the WWE Universe.

Later that afternoon, the WWE Universe in the Philippines braved the infamous Manila traffic for an exclusive meet and greet at Skinny Mike’s Sports Bar in Bonifacio Global City. For the hundreds in attendance, it was the chance to personally interact with one of the most decorated Superstars in sports-entertainment history. From his numerous WWE World Heavyweight Championship wins to his incredible tag team run as one-half of The Bar with Cesaro, an entire generation of Filipino WWE fans grew up watching Sheamus’ battles inside the squared circle. 

After landing in Manila on Wednesday night, Sheamus hit the gym to recover from a long and grueling flight. The following morning, Sheamus took to the streets of Metro Manila for a quick photo shoot before joining the kids from the Christian Mission Service Philippines, via Children’s Hour Philippines, for a fun obstacle run. 

“That was amazing!” Sheamus shared. “A lot of these kids were jumping all over the walls. They were active and they were having fun!”

Sheamus then sat down for a series of interviews with the local media. This allowed Sheamus to talk about his inspiring Celtic Warrior Workouts and his goals upon returning to the ring.

“If I get back into the ring, the Intercontinental Championship will be the first thing I go after. It’s definitely the one I want to finish the collection. It’s that one Infinity Stone. Once I get it, in the click of my finger. Boom!”



WWE SmackDown! will make its long-awaited return to the Philippines on Friday, September 20th, 2019, live at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum. Tickets are available at all Ticketnet outlets nationwide and online at http://www.ticketnet.com.ph.
