Technology an innovation has taken a major stride in people’s lives over the past century. It continues to change the lifestyle and business landscape with its fast and continuous development. In the Philippines, digitalization in businesses took a sharp upward turn over the past couple of years due to the challenges and limitations brought about by the pandemic. With MSMEs serving as the backbone of the Philippines’ economy, the continuous reliance of many businesses on the growth of eCommerce in the country depends heavily on the growing customer demand and aspirations.
Seller’s Hub, Inc., one of the country’s fastest-growing eCommerce enablers whose purpose is rooted in transforming lives through life-changing products, is set to empower more Filipino entrepreneurs through its data-driven online strategies promoting unique brand positioning in the global market.
Led by CEO and President BK Rivera, a young business-minded leader from Cavite, Seller’s Hub was incorporated in 2017 with its main intention of reselling basic products to customers in different parts of the country. Through the growing demand of its customers, Seller’s Hub, Inc. has developed products that are deemed essential to Filipino lives paving the way to its success in the online business.
Humble Beginnings
In six years, Seller’s Hub has increased its online presence making it a one-stop shop for fellow business owners who are seeking avenues to promote and sell their products.
“Our company started in a very small room, almost like a computer shop, in Cavite where we only have four staff. Through our determination to grow big and become one of the sought-after platforms in the market, we devotedly studied our customers’ behavior, which became our strength as we continue to evolve,” Rivera shared.
Armed with a wider understanding of the new market, Rivera increases its manpower by hiring young professionals from the region who show great interest in the eCommerce and Philippine markets. To date, Seller’s Hub is equipped with almost 100 young members and a continuously growing number of partners that aims to nourish and cultivate the Company.
Providing Inspiration, Empowering People
In May 2022, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) reported that it envisioned registering 1 million online sellers in the Philippines by end of the year, double from 2020’s reported registered online sellers.
“As we grow, we also want our people and community partners to grow, that’s why here at Sellers’ Hub, Inc., we are continuously evolving our business strategy with our people in mind. We’ve launched various learning programs internally to further enhance our capacity and strength that will be beneficial in the Company’s growth,” Rivera added.
Rivera, who is also known as “IDOL” among his peers, takes pride in embodying the catchphrase “walk the talk.” For him, being the “IDOL” was rooted in the ideals of Integrity, Driven, Ownership, and Learner. Through this, Seller’s Hub, Inc. is hosting various learning events for their employees and partners to further understand the market and remain driven as time goes by. Currently, Seller’s Hub, Inc. is hosting a Core Culture program to inculcate Company’s DNA; Technical Competency to continuously study and master the changing behavior of their customers; and Leadership Education to equip its people with unique talent and strength that could further drive the Company to new heights.
