Building stronger business through valuable partnerships
As one of the strategic cornerstones behind the success of any business, partnering with the right people can bring aspiring business owners tremendous benefits, such as building a profitable venture.
In celebration of valuable partnerships that remain strong and focused on mutual growth goals, Philippine Seven Corp. (PSC), the local exclusive licensor of 7-Eleven convenience store chain, proudly honored its top performing franchisees at its recent Franchise Appreciation Day.
The annual recognition puts prime importance in partners’ invaluable support to 7-Eleven’s undisputed edge over competition in the C-store category. Via two separate awarding events that celebrated the theme “Go Beyond, Together,” PSC, led by its chairman Jose Victor Paterno, hailed the top performing franchisees from the North and South Luzon areas for their leadership and exceptional contribution to overall company progress.
Both recognition ceremonies awarded their overall top 30 performing franchisees based on 7-Eleven’s metrics. Also, north and South Luzon franchise day recognized 28 and 24 franchisees, respectively, that excelled on different areas of their key performance index.
In totality, Gloria F. Quiroz was hailed as the most outstanding franchisee of the year for North Luzon while Danilo Damo was hailed as the Franchisee of the year for South Luzon.
According to Franchise Advisory Council chairperson Waldo Theodore Abad Santos, the solid support, trust and commitment by the franchisees in the said territories immensely con- tributed to the success of the franchise system. “As with the previous years, this year’s awardees from North and South Luzon are chosen and fittingly acknowledged for displaying consistent management performance and sales achievements in their franchise business operations.”
Abad Santos said that through the Franchise Day Awards, they hope to build better rapport between franchisees and support group and to inspire fellow franchisees to reach the same aspirations as well. “It’s our simple gesture of gratitude to our loyal partners who chose to share the same values and sustainable growth visions with PSC. As we celebrate these collective milestones, we are optimistic in reaching the company target goals by end 2017.”
PSC is set to open more than 400 stores nationwide, specifically in the Luzon (a total of 262, 138 of which will be opening soon in Metro Manila and 124 outlets in provincial areas).
