Zendee, Marvin Fojas, and Yanyan de Jesus were all voted as winners for the Top Talent Award. Marvin, a comedy creator, said during his acceptance speech, "I believe that comedy is also an art. It requires talent, it requires creativity. So proud ako na nakuha ko 'tong award na 'to."

 

Three Top Celebrity Award trophies were also given out during the show to winners SB19, Sanya Lopez, and Andrea Brillantes. All winners expressed their gratitude and pride at being chosen as recipients of this award. SB19 shared, "Alam naman namin na maraming artists ang natutulungan ng TikTok ngayon. And we are very honored to be part of it," while Sanya Lopez said, "Akalain niyo 'yun, umpisa pa lang, for entertainment at for fun lang naman 'yung ginagawa natin, pero hindi ko akalain na makaka-receive po ako ng award from TikTok.

After accepting his award, Dr. Kilimanguru shared, "I started creating content when I was 16 years old and it wasn't only until I was 25 years old that I discovered my true purpose as a content creator. Everyone should have a free, legitimate medical information and advice and I'm really grateful to the organizers of TikTok Philippines for recognizing my advocacy for health, education, and entertainment."

 

Winners of the Popular Creator Award were also handed out during the show. The recipients of this award were creators Jookstogo, Lennie Enverga, and John Lloyd Castillo.

 

Having grown as a platform for creativity and self-expression, filled with varied content and a diverse community of creators, TikTok has transformed the lives of many of its users for the better. These same creators helped build and mold the TikTok community into the inclusive and safe space that it is now, where anyone can truly be themselves. In turn, TikTok continues to uphold the safety of its community as its number one priority. 

 

TikTok has gone beyond providing entertainment, to being a place where you can learn important lessons and vital information needed in day-to-day life. The game-changing platform has also been instrumental in nation-building, playing an active role in supporting the community during times of need, and throughout this pandemic. As host, Inka, shared, "TikTok has been my outlet to survive this pandemic. Once you post your videos you'll understand the encouragement. The feedback that you will get and give on TikTok is just incredible."

Locad provides a simple yet scalable end-to-end solution to power brands and retailers

Founders Constantin Robertz, Jannis Dargel and Shrey Jain came together to start Locad after years in Southeast Asia’s eCommerce, transportation and logistics ecosystem. Locad is the first Philippine Surge investment of Sequoia, one of the world's leading venture capital firms that has funded legendary companies in the technology sector (including Airbnb, Zoom, Youtube, Tokopedia and more) since 1972.


Logistics and supply chain management integrator Locad today announces US$4.9 million in funding, in a seed round led by Sequoia Capital India’s Surge with participation from Antler, Febe Ventures, Foxmont, Global Founders Capital, Gokongwei Family, and Hustle Fund. Locad offers eCommerce brands and retailers simple yet scalable end-to-end solutions, ranging from plug-and-play eCommerce fulfilment to a distributed warehousing network in APAC for companies that are looking to scale their business internationally. 

 

Powered by a fully digital and integrated platform with real time visibility over order and inventory movements, Locad plugs an important gap in the current eCommerce state-of-play - the fragmented, complex, and slow supply chain ecosystem in Southeast Asia. Instead of powering growth, such gaps are creating barriers, rather than enabling companies who have the appetite and ambition to grow beyond borders. 

Sequoia's funding indicates a growth of and improvement in Locad’s technology that will create better opportunities for businesses that choose the logistics cloud as their platform of choice in reaching their business objectives.

Redefining better and stronger eCommerce fulfillment

Founded in Manila and Singapore in October 2020, Locad is fast making a name for itself in the logistics industry and now has offices in Australia, Hong Kong, India, the Philippines and Singapore. While many companies address first mile and last mile problems in delivery, very few provide the fully integrated solution that Locad is pioneering. Business customers of Locad have the opportunity to integrate with eCommerce platforms such as Shopify, WooCommerce, Lazada, Shopee, and Zalora. Brands can manage all their orders and stock from a single virtual pool across multiple sales channels, with real-time visibility of sales, orders, inventory, and service levels.

 

While Locad irons out the back-end operations of running a direct-to-consumer business, brands can then be left to focus on growing their business. 


 As soon as an order is placed on a company’s online store, Locad ships out from the nearest fulfillment center and delivers straight to the customer.

 

"Since partnering with Locad, our business could focus less on the fulfillment process and more on other aspects like product and marketing. As a result, there is an increase in our sales and conversion rate right away.” said Janine Munez, Director of IT Operations at KJM Cosmetics. With the ability to fulfill orders faster and provide more affordable shipping rates to their customers, the Filipino-grown cosmetics brand based in Davao shared that their conversion rate nearly doubled for both their Shopee and Lazada stores after adding localised fulfillment in Metro Manila with Locad, thereby cutting delivery time and shipping fees for buyers. 

 

CEO and co-Founder Constantin Robertz shared, “eCommerce and on-demand delivery services are accelerating in the Philippines. Many vendors, producers, and sellers are migrating to digital channels but are still hampered with the logistics of bringing products to their customers. They also lack infrastructure, resources, and experience in managing both online services and their own supply chain.” With the exponential growth of eCommerce in Southeast Asia, Locad is empowering eCommerce brands who will play a pivotal role in driving the Philippines’ massive post-pandemic growth opportunity.


For Locad’s founders, the core of their mission is to level the playing field in direct-to-consumer commerce by giving brands small and large access to an integrated, distributed and flexible supply chain network that is simple yet scalable. In an industry where reliability and speed could make or break an eCommerce brand, our ability to provide a one-stop platform, from fulfilment capability to distributed warehousing, allows brands to meet the evolving needs of their customers with flexible, nimble and pain-free logistics solutions.

 

“We are now serving more than 30 brands in the Philippines, helping small businesses to some of the largest retailers deliver tens of thousands of items each month. We’re excited to be providing logistics infrastructures to eCommerce businesses of any size in these countries and we will continue to grow our presence across the region,” shared Jannis Dargel, COO and Co-Founder of Locad. 

 

The Philippines’ first Sequoia Surge investment 

Locad is the first Philippine Surge investment of Sequoia, one of the world's leading venture capital firms that has funded legendary companies in the technology sector (including Airbnb, Zoom, Youtube, Tokopedia and more) since 1972. 

This investment will further enhance and expand Locad’s platform and fulfillment network that enable its clients’ goals for eCommerce growth. With eCommerce showing 76% penetration in the Philippines in 2020, an increase in the usage and need for Locad’s comprehensive services is likely to occur as businesses strive to level up their fulfillment infrastructure.

The additional funding will accelerate the development of Locad’s technology and will create better opportunities for businesses that select the logistics cloud as their platform of choice to grow their direct-to-consumer business in eCommerce and omnichannel retail, also ensuring continuity for years to come. By maximizing Locad as the primary platform in performing and organizing the logistics needs related to eCommerce, the integrated platform enables companies to run a more seamless fulfillment infrastructure at affordable costs.

The Locad Control Tower is an online platform that gives company owners a better view of their businesses. With real- time visibility in data and analytics, it allows them to track orders online, monitor inventory levels, and generate reports in just a few clicks.

Locad’s shipping platform with a comprehensive range of integrated couriers enables brands to deliver nationwide, and its fulfillment network with warehouses strategically located in Taguig, Paranaque, Laguna, Cebu and Davao (opening soon), provides flexible fulfillment capacity and allows brands to reduce shipping time and costs by storing products closer to online shoppers. With its Seed funding of $4.9M, Locad will expand its cloud logistics platform to work with more Philippine businesses of all sizes. The company is also investing in broadening its regional footprint in Southeast Asia and Australia, providing Philippine businesses an accessible option to pursue regional expansion and make their products accessible to consumers across Asia-Pacific. 

Founders Constantin Robertz, Jannis Dargel and Shrey Jain came together to start Locad after years in Southeast Asia's eCommerce, transportation and logistics ecosystem, previously working in leadership roles at Grab, Zalora and Entrego. 

 

Led by Sequoia Capital India’s Surge, the seed investment round of Locad is joined by Antler, Febe Ventures, Foxmont, Global Founders Capital, the Gokongwei Family, Hustle Fund and angel investors from the Technology, eCommerce and Logistics ecosystem, including Alessandro Duri (eCommerce, MEA), Paulo Campos (eCommerce, Zalora), Henry Ko and Huey Lin (Logistics, Flexport), Thibaud Lecuyer (Logistics, Loggi), Oliver Mickler and Tim Seithe (Fintech, Tillhub), Christian Weiss and Tim Marbach (Technology, Venture Capital). 

 

Locad is part of Surge’s fifth cohort of 23 companies that have developed new digital solutions to help companies and individuals work, live and learn better in a rapidly evolving Southeast Asian landscape.

PLDT Home trains the spotlight on all the brilliant possibilities that Filipinos can achieve with its latest campaign, ‘Do It Better’

Keeping up with the ever-growing demands of their different pursuits, Filipino families are working harder to excel and achieve the life they aspire for. PLDT Home, the country’s fastest fixed network, trains the spotlight on all the brilliant possibilities that Filipinos can achieve with its latest campaign, ‘Do It Better’. An assuredly optimistic, hopeful and empowering cause, PLDT Home aims to illustrate how its digital products and services enable families to do, connect, learn, and earn–better—at home. 

 

Using her strongest connections at home, award-winning actress and multi-hyphenated mom Toni Gonzaga, along with her family, have signed up to bring to life all these positive feats (and more!) so that Filipinos at home may be inspired to do the same. Like many young families, the Gonzaga-Sorianos were affected by pandemic restrictions but they refused to let these challenges prevent them from living the life they wanted.

“At first, when we started staying at home and shifting to a digital setup for work and home, it was challenging for me and my family because the shift took some getting used to. But with PLDT Home, I am empowered to do and fulfill my multiple roles at home: from hosting events, working out, and taking care of Seve and Paul. I can live my best life and do things better,” Toni Gonzaga-Soriano said. 

Toni also ensures that her four-year-old son, Seve, makes the most of his time at home by letting him learn online through educational videos and games. While renowned director Paul Soriano was able to adapt better in the new normal as he stayed on top of all his film projects through online shoots and directing projects, thanks to their strong and reliable PLDT Home connection at home. 

 

Better Products and Services

As part of its continuing mission to serve the needs of Filipinos better, PLDT Home introduced a host of new products and services including the all-new Fibr plans up to 1000 Mbps. All these innovations aim to provide Filipino families seamless connections while they pursue their passions and work towards their goals.

 

PLDT Home also leveled up the country’s standard for internet speeds by giving subscribers free speed boost up to 500 Mbps. To provide better internet coverage at home, PLDT Home also introduced Wifi 6 solutions and Fibr Plus plans that come with wifi mesh routers. This move sets a new standard of broadband service for Filipinos that offer beyond fast internet connectivity. 

 

PLDT Home also puts focus on supporting home-based entrepreneurs through its Home Biz Asenso Fibr plans that enable entrepreneurs to do more with their businesses with complete e-commerce solutions and fast internet speeds. 

 

Enjoying time at home is now even more rewarding as PLDT Home beefed up its entertainment offerings through partnerships with Netflix, Viu, and NBA League Pass. PLDT Home subscribers get to enjoy exclusive offers and the convenience of adding these services on top of their existing broadband subscription. 

 

PLDT Home understands how access to healthcare is important now more than ever, which is why the company supports the Metro Pacific Health Tech Corporation’s mWell app— the country’s first fully integrated, one-stop health & lifestyle app that provides online doctor consultations, health education, wellness programs, online pharmacy services, and more.

 

Better Country

With the surge of demand for broadband services in the country, PLDT Home has been at the center of enabling the country’s digital shift so that families can thrive better at home. 

 

The leading digital services provider connects an average of 100,000 homes monthly and continues to boost its efforts to widen its fiber footprint that now reaches 478,000 kilometers reaching 10.2 million homes nationwide. The network expansion allowed PLDT Home to increase its fiber capacity to 4.4 million fiber-powered ports around the country. 

 

With the most extensive and advanced digital transport network in the Philippines, PLDT moved up Philippines’ ranking in global speed index as it achieved 55.86 Mbps average fixed broadband speeds on Ookla® Speedtest®, pushing the country’s average internet speeds to 46.25 Mbps in Q1 2021. This has put the Philippines’ global speed index standing to 11 points higher, ranking 81st out of 177 globally and 2 points higher at 22nd rank in Asia.

 

PLDT has been consistently named the fastest fixed network in the Philippines for three (3) consecutive years at the Ookla Speedtest Awards™ as assessed by Ookla, the global leader in internet testing and analyis.

"Di Dapat Mahal maging masaya" sa Jollibee

Some may think that material sources of happiness come with a high price, but not with Jollibee! The country’s #1 fast food chain launched the second instalment of its three-part JolliSavers commercial series, asserting its stance of bringing joy to us all at an affordable price through its sulit-sarap bestsellers.

 

The clip opens with “Wil” trying on a nice jacket in a department store, only to find out its mind-blowing price. He then starts sprouting out sarcastic rationales for its seemingly unreasonable value, including perhaps suddenly looking like handsome actor and Jollibee ambassador Joshua Garcia whenever he puts on the jacket.

 

With this, we are reminded that di dapat mahal maging masaya, especially with JolliSavers—the more affordable, more delicious option for happiness. Treat yourself to any of its crave-worthy menu items: the langhap-sarap Yumburger at PHP 35.00; the sweet-sarap Jolly Spaghetti at PHP 50.00; the beefy-saucy Burger Steak at PHP 50.00; and the todo toppings, todo sarap Jolly Hotdog at PHP 50.00.

 

Have them safely delivered to you via the Jollibee Delivery App, JollibeeDelivery.com, #87000, GrabFood, and foodpanda! Also available in Drive-Thru and Take Out.

Cleaning in the time of Covid: Stock up on LYSOL this 7.7 Shopee Midyear Sale!

We all know that COVID-19 transmission usually occurs among close contacts when one individual talks, sneezes, or coughs producing ‘droplets’ of saliva containing the virus.  

But while human transmission is the most common,  it is not the only way that the virus can spread.

 

The coronavirus that causes Covid-19 may survive for several days on some surfaces. Though estimates of its life span vary, the virus can clearly linger around long enough to make disinfecting frequently touched surfaces a priority.

 

When disinfecting a surface, you should always consider what’s known as “dwell time,” or the amount of time the disinfectant needs to remain on a surface to kill pathogens—or specifically the coronavirus that causes Covid-19. 


                     ðŸ‘‰  LYSOL Disinfectant Spray With Crisp Linen Scent 510g Set of 3


The 3 pack Lysol Disinfectant Spray with Crisp Linen Scent 510g will be available for only P1308 at the Shopee 7.7. Midyear sale!

 

A complete disinfection protocol includes four steps: Pre-cleaning, disinfecting (dwell time), wiping clean and rinsing with water. But we are all probably guilty of skipping or missing two--dwell time and wipe-up.

 

Pre-cleaning is most important on heavily soiled surfaces, because dirt can shield pathogens underneath; it’s fine to use soap and water or a household cleaner. Disinfecting for the proper dwell time, of course, is nonnegotiable. Wiping afterward is essential because disinfectants can leave a sticky residue where pathogens can quickly resettle. And rinsing finishes the process.

When the pandemic started, disinfectants were among the first items that went out of stock together with alcohol and tissues. So a lot of people created their own “home made disinfectants.”

 

Unfortunately, not all mixes are safe and effective and some can even damage the surfaces of your furniture/appliances. Remember bleach mixtures can be used only on hard surfaces — as they will permanently damage most fabrics and many other soft materials. Bleach isn’t only  corrosive it can also exude harmful odors.

 

It’s a good thing that one of the most trusted disinfectants is now back in steady supply and you can start stocking up for the remainder of the year with this Shopee Promo.

 

Lysol is the most trusted disinfectant sprays that can help remove germs from hard and soft surfaces. The brand has been helping create healthy households with effective household cleaning products for over a century. Their range spans everything from disinfectants to fabric cleaners.

 

LYSOL Disinfectant Spray is the No. 1 Pediatrician Recommended USA Brand as it can kills 99.9% of viruses and bacteria and kill over 100 illness-causing germs, including cold and flu viruses.

You can also use Lysol to disinfect both hard and soft surfaces in your home and help eliminate germs and odors and deodorize.

 

Here are some tips to best use your Lysol Disinfectant Sprays.

 

As we mentioned Precleaning surfaces is important. To pre-clean surfaces prior to use, hold can upright 6” to 8” from surface. Spray 3 to 4 seconds until covered with mist.

 

To Disinfect consider the 3-minute dwell time as surfaces must remain wet for 3 minutes then allow to air dry. For Norovirus, surfaces must remain wet for 10 minutes then allow to air dry.

Make sure to rinse toys and food contact surfaces with potable water after use.

 

When sanitizing surfaces must remain wet for 10 seconds then allow to air dry.

 

To Control and Prevent Mold and Mildew;  Apply first to pre-cleaned surface.

 Allow to remain wet for 3 minutes and let it air dry. Repeat applications in weekly intervals or when mold and mildew growth appears.

 

That’s it! Keep your home virus free with Lysol! Order the 3 pack Lysol Disinfectant Spray with Crisp Linen Scent 510g  Lysol Official Store at Shopee  at the Shopee 7.7. Midyear sale!
