At the press launch of Iskaparate.com, held on October 15, at Makati’s Overdoughs Café in Ayala Malls Circuit, media representatives and industry partners had the opportunity to experience the platform firsthand through an interactive online purchase demo led by a team from ConnectSys, Iskaparate’s ecosystem provider.
The event, designed to introduce Iskaparate’s features and benefits, was a key moment for the platform as it officially made its entrance into the digital marketplace. A demo gave an all- around tour of the website, including product showcasing, e-commerce functionalities, and
purchasing process activated using an e-gift certificate. Attendees engaged with the demo through experiential navigation accompanied by an open forum about the platform’s overall operation.
The event began with a warm video message from Iskaparate founder Joey Bermudez, sharing the journey of Iskaparate from having a community of 33 entrepreneurial mothers to partnering with 3,000 fully vetted sellers.
Attendees included a mix of media professionals and industry partners eager to see how the platform could potentially impact and transform the digital commerce landscape for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the Philippines.
Iskaparate.com, while initially conceived to support micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), has now extended its offerings to include larger businesses and B2B companies.
With a wide range of e-commerce tools, vendors of all sizes can list and manage their products, handle transactions, and engage directly with consumers on a trusted, efficient platform.
As elaborated at the event, the core mission of Iskaparate.com is to empower Filipino entrepreneurs, particularly MSMEs, by giving them the tools to navigate the e- commerce space effectively through the provision of a multi-vendor platform that levels the playing field.
