A Family Business Boom: How Juvil’s Entrepreneurial Spirit Soared with Ka-pandaBIZ

Juvil Hinoguin’s life has always revolved around his family’s eatery business in the bustling Poblacion Public Market in Lapu-Lapu City. Growing up, he would help his mother prepare and cook meals that drew in local patrons.

When Juvil won a staggering Php 100,000 during foodpanda logistics’ rider year-end party in Cebu, he knew it was the perfect opportunity to take their family business to the next level.

Juvil’s luck didn’t stop there; he was also one of the fortunate beneficiaries of Ka-pandaBIZ, a groundbreaking livelihood program organized by foodpanda logistics. This innovative initiative empowers delivery partners by offering them the opportunity to start or grow their small businesses through entrepreneurial training and workshops.

The program’s mission is to equip individuals with the essential skills and knowledge to succeed in the business world. Two years later, Juvil’s entrepreneurial endeavors have flourished.

He credits Ka-pandaBIZ for providing the necessary boost to their business, saying, “The program has greatly helped our business because it added to our capital, and now our business has grown even more.” Juvil’s experience with Ka-pandaBIZ has been nothing short of transformative.

He gained valuable skills in areas such as store setup, financial management, product marketing, and business expansion. With the help of the program, Juvil was able to expand his family business by introducing new products like bottled water, juices, and soft drinks.

These additions helped boost their income, and Juvil successfully managed the business in between his sessions as a Ka-panda delivery partner. The flexibility of being a foodpanda logistics delivery partner has been a huge advantage for Juvil, allowing him to earn double – from their business and from his deliveries.

The Ka-pandaBIZ program has not only empowered Juvil but also reflects foodpanda logistics’ commitment to upskilling its delivery partners and providing them with sustainable livelihoods.

According to Ron Sanders, Rider Experience Lead at foodpanda logistics, “We are committed to upskilling and providing sustainable livelihood to these hardworking individuals.

With the knowledge and support gained from the program, Juvil and other Ka-pandas are proving that with the right tools and guidance, even small businesses can thrive.” Juvil’s story serves as a testament to the power of entrepreneurial spirit and the impact of programs like Ka-pandaBIZ.

With the right support and guidance, individuals can turn their passions into successful businesses, creating a brighter future for themselves and their families.
