CHARACTER TRAITS COMMON TO SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS

1.) The achievements - Socorro Ramos – National Book Store

Socorro Ramos entered the publishing and retail industry by working as a salesgirl at a bookstore. At the age of 19, she opened National Book Store in Escolta with her husband with a capital of P200, selling books and school supplies to students. At that time, Manila was under the control of the Japanese, who imposed censorship on books and periodicals. To augment their earnings, she and her husband resorted to selling other items like candles and soaps.

After the post-war boom proved profitable for the company, ushering in bigger revenues, the Ramoses opened a nine-story building along Avenida. At 95, she still believes in the time-honored tradition of “hands-on approach” in business. She even designed the company’s logo herself.

2.) The achievements - Tony Tan Caktiong – Jollibee

Tony Tan Caktiong used to operate an ice cream parlor, before converting it into a fast food restaurant called Jollibee. With a starting capital of P350,000, the young Caktiong opened two branches in Cubao and Quiapo, together with friends who supported his idea.

Caktiong decided to serve hamburgers, fried chicken, and spaghetti to customers when they started looking beyond the usual ice cream. Eventually, the business grew, and he had to hire more employees. By knowing the Filipino market, Jollibee managed to excel as a fSM is more than just a shopping mall. It is a beloved institution. Many of my favorite memories happened in SM. From shopping, watching blockbuster movies, date night, ice skating to food tripping, SM has it all.

3.) The achievements - Henry Sy, Shoe Mart

SM is more than just a shopping mall. It is a beloved institution. Many of my favorite memories happened in SM. From shopping, watching blockbuster movies, date night, ice skating to food tripping, SM has it all.

However, this gigantic chain of more than 44 large-scale shopping centers in the Philippines and throughout Asia has very humble beginnings.

Henry Sy came from an impoverished family in Jinjiang, a town near Xiamen, China. The entire family left China in 1936 to help the family patriarch manage a thriving convenience store in Manila.

Unfortunately for the family, their store was burned down during World War II. However, business-minded Henry saw an opportunity selling used military combat boots and other postwar goods from supportive American soldiers!

His success led to the opening of his first shoe store, the SM in Avenida, Manila. Henry had problems finding shoe manufacturers who could design shoes according to what he had in mind, but he persisted. He spoke to customers and built his own network of suppliers and manufacturers.

That never-say-die attitude got Henry Sy to where he is now: one of the richest men in the world and a world-class commercial center developer who provides opportunities to both entrepreneurs and the working class.

4.) The Achievements - John Gokongwei Jr,. Holdings

John’s life story is a “rich-to-rags-to riches” story. John Jr. was born in China to the scion of one of the wealthiest families in Cebu.

When the father died, so did the business and the family fortune was soon gone. John Jr. supported his family by peddling items along the streets of Cebu by bike. Soon, he was trading items by boat to Lucena City and to Manila by truck. Eventually, he started importing items from the US.

John Jr. soon realized that importing carried too much risk and low margins. Thus, in 1957, he borrowed Php 500,000 from China Bank and started a corn milling business named Universal Corn Products.

By 1961, Universal started diversifying its products and launched several popular brands such as Blend 45. Universal Corn Products was renamed Universal Robina Corporation.

Today, the Gokongwei family owns several successful and highly diversified businesses. Among these are Robina Land Corporation and Cebu Pacific.

5.) The Achievements - Mariano Que, Mercury Drugstores

Many of today’s entrepreneurs would learn the value of customer experience and innovation through Mariano Que.

Like many of the entrepreneurs discussed so far, Mariano found opportunities for entrepreneurship after World War 2. Mariano had been working in a local drugstore when the war destroyed several businesses in the city.

Mariano saw the need to supply sulfa drugs, which were used to treat bacterial infections. He started to buy sulfa tablets and sold them at affordable prices. Soon, other people followed and adapted Mariano’s strategy.

However, only Mariano sold high-quality sulfa tablets, which ensured him a steady clientele. With his hard work and dedication to build up savings, he was able to put up his first drug store in 1945, which he named Mercury Drug. The Roman god Mercury is known for speed. He also carries the caduceus, which is a symbol in the medical industry.

Mariano invested his earnings into the company and introduced many innovations in the service. Among these innovations were a drug-delivery service to clients and locations that are open 24/7 because he knew people would be needing medicines any time of the day.

By the time Mariano opened his second Mercury Drug at the newly constructed Ayala shopping center in Makati, he had invested in technological innovations, such as biological refrigerators and computer-guided controls.

Mariano’s dedication to his business has allowed Mercury Drug into 700 stores and a widely recognized name for quality pharmaceuticals.

Imagine living in a condominium where everything is a short walk or bike ride away. Living in a mixed-use estate, such as Cebu I.T. Park, where everything is near has become a popular lifestyle choice as more people are trying to beat the traffic situation in highly urbanized cities all over the country–even parking is now an issue. Skipping the traffic during your daily commute means more me-time and family time. Living in Avida Riala — located in Cebu I.T. Park—you can find all you need for a healthy, balanced life nearby.

Work and Play

Working and living in Cebu I.T. Park means a quick walk or bike ride to the office. Get your mornings back and spend it on things that matter, like having a warm breakfast with your loved ones, or going for a short swim in the condominium pool.

If you’re a freelancer, dozens of large and independent coffee shops near Avida Towers Riala will spoil you for choice. These include The Civet Coffee Roasters and your ubiquitous Starbucks and Krispy Kreme.

Once you’re done with your coffee break, you can head over to work. Located at the nearby Crossroads mall is ASPACE Cebu, one of the most popular co-working hubs in the city.

Plus, get to meet fellow freelancers from all walks of life.

Day in and day out, many brave the city traffic to enjoy the dining and nightlife hotspots in Cebu I.T. Park; just a hop and skip away from your place!

Right across the street from Avida Towers Riala is the Garden Bloc, home to Sugbo Mercado, the biggest weekly food market in Cebu City. Open from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, people flock to the night market for its delectable selection of food and drinks, plus the occasional live music.

A short stroll from the Garden Bloc is The Walk, a commercial promenade home to popular restaurants and bars including Zubuchon, Mooon Café, and Casa Verde. There is also Music One Family KTV, a popular karaoke place open 24 hours a day—perfect after a long day, or night, of work. The newest addition to the area is the Louvre-inspired restaurant The Pyramid, where you can enjoy live music on some nights.

Health and Wellness

There are choices, too, for those looking to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle in and around Avida Towers Riala. The condominium itself has over 5,000 square meters of green and open space, including a meditation area and a private garden where you can relax and unwind.

Shopping and Recreation

Weekends are the best time to drop by Ayala Center Cebu and spend some quality time with family and friends. You can watch a movie, enjoy a sumptuous meal, and take care of your shopping needs—from groceries to gadgets, medications to home and office supplies.

If you prefer to stay in during your rest day, though, concierge services like Honest Bee and Food Panda are great alternatives to eating out. Use a phone app to order from supermarkets, restaurants, and pharmacies, pay using your credit card, and have your purchases delivered straight to your doorstep.

Ayala has a new mall inside Cebu I.T. Park, just around the block from Avida Towers Riala. Central Bloc features 43,000 square meters of mall space, which includes a supermarket and around 500 retail stores. Aside from the mall, the complex houses two new BPO buildings and Seda Hotel.
