BPIF Ka-Negosyo Expo

July 14th, 2010

It was a momentous occasion for two of Go Negosyo’s trusted partners, BPI Family Savings Bank (BFSB) and the Association of Filipino Franchisers, Inc. (AFFI), as they staged the BPI Family Ka-Negosyo Expo last July 8, 2010 at the NBC Tent, Bonifacio Global City. The BPI Ka-Negosyo Expo is an unprecedented offering of special franchising opportunities and great business loan packages under one roof.

Attended by an overwhelming 800 BFSB clients, the Expo featured over 20 AFFI member companies, all offering special franchising packages, from lowered prices and discounts to exclusive terms. Franchising companies present ranged from the food and beverage industry (i.e., Royal Jamaican Patties, Freska, Aqua Best) to services (Ahead Tutorial, V-Cargo, SeaOil). The Expo also served as a launching pad for BFSB’s Ka-Negosyo Business Insurance Bundle.
