LBC
continues to rally behind Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the hope of
enhancing their value as key contributors to the Philippines’ economy.
And to
bring to the fore the significance of SMEs, LBC’s Business Solutions has come
to sponsor the SME Company of the Year Award of the 2018 Asia CEO Awards
organized by the ASIA CEO Forum, known as the largest and only national
business event series in the Philippines. The SME Company of the Year, is given
to a small or medium sized enterprise that is not a subsidiary, wholly
independent, and employs between 10 to 500 employees.
According to Javier Mantecon, LBC’s Chief Marketing
Officer: “Members of the Circle of Excellence for this category are companies
who are able to go toe-to-toe with bigger organizations. They enhance
processes, maximize productivity, enter new markets and expand their brand
leading to international recognition or local expansion. As more individuals
find the courage and capability to offer new products and services in the
market, these SMEs become more and more equipped to encourage competitiveness,
excellence in their field of play, enticing players in the industries to also
level up.”
This year’s Circle of Excellence
roster for the SME Company of the Year are: Aficionado, Everise/C3, FlySpaces,
Italpinas Development Corp., My Town Dormitories, RCD Land Inc., Seven A.D.,
Sprout Solutions and True Money.
Mantecon
stressed the importance of the 900,000 strong SMEs in the Philippines
saying “We believe that the pool is
going to power the nation in many years to come. They just need to be more
efficient, more productive, and find their expertise so they can challenge
large enterprises.”
As they continue on with their pursuit to help SMEs, LBC
continues to gain recognition for their work, as well. At the media launch, the
ASIA CEO Awards’ panel of judges has named LBC Express as among the companies
who belong to the Circle of Excellence for the categories: Heart of OFW’s
Company, sponsored by IRemit; and, Service Excellence Company of the Year,
sponsored by Sitel.
