The traffic noise of EDSA, the bumper-to-bumper ride back to school, and the bustling hustle at work are some signs that we have regained our lives post-pandemic. As Filipinos begin to thrive, so is the rise of the only boss of franchises, the king of siomai-Siomai King.

 

And that enormous billboard along the Philippines' busiest highway not only gives us a glimpse of the mouthwatering flavors of Siomai King but provides information on opportunities to bounce back from the pandemic.

 

As the food businesses return to normal and the appetite of Pinoys for good food regains, Siomai King proudly presents new available franchise locations at SM Hypermarket, Robinsons, Puregold, Savemore, Shopwise, LRT, MRT, Waltermart, Gaisano, and Ayala Malls. 

 

For young entrepreneurs who want to taste the success of Siomai King, it is easy as 1 to 3! Your small investment can take your entrepreneurial skills to the next level. 

 

First, prepare your investment and apply. Second, choose any of Siomai King franchise brands: Mang Boks, Siopao Da King, Noodle House, Potato King, and Burger Factory to kickstart your food business. Third, earn! 

 

These brands are equipped with new machinery to produce 30 million siomai and 2.5 million siopaos monthly, enough to cover all your customers' orders! 

 

There are 1000 branches nationwide strategically placed to ensure everyone earns, but it also provides a network of assistance and mentoring for your business. 

 

SIOMA KING-A TESTAMENT TO A RESILIENT BRAND

 

The pandemic has halted many businesses, especially the food industry, but that's not the case for Siomai King, the country's most dynamically innovative franchise company, as they proved that all rough roads lead to a great destination. 

 

"During the early months of the pandemic, the choice was simple: either continue doing business as usual and struggle in a market crippled by the pandemic or confront the pandemic head-on by adopting. The truth is that the pandemic is anything but normal, and how you carry out your business operations will determine whether or not your company survives. Fortunately, we have our own IT Solutions Company (CloudPanda Ph) and began to develop a different approach where our franchisees can continue to operate their franchise business safely and conveniently online," Siomai King CFO and Vice President, Carlito Macadangdang said. 

 

During this period, the company quickly adapted and transitioned from the traditional food cart franchise operation to the unusual "Online Franchise" platform. 

 

With a goal in mind, Macadangdang, and his long-time friend, Siomai King CEO, and President Jonathan So, thought of ways to sustain Siomai King despite the pandemic. 

 

One of their many maverick ideas is integrating the franchise business into the digital online platform. 

 

"Everyone's affected. Even our businesses are not immune to the pandemic. I don't believe in giving up easily. I always believe in the saying that for every tragedy there lies an opportunity. We just can't accept the fact that we'll just concede to the situation, we want to be different. We want to win. We fight of we fight. It's that simple. With a goal in mind, we taught and develop new innovations that would expand and make our business thrive even in a pandemic," So said. 

 

Indeed, Siomai King took the opposite route, taking risks and expanding even further, fueling rising demand for its products due to its massive "Online Franchise" success. The rest, as they say, is history.
