We all know that pandemic was one of the hindrances that we are facing right now, some plans that we have are postponed, some of our trips are canceled because of this. And people started to stay at home to become safe and healthy, but it has a positive impact on some people, like having a family time, inventing foods, and making a small business within the comfort of their home. While I was browsing through my social media, I saw some pictures of my friends, they are in a place where there’s a lot of small business kiosks in the surroundings, so I decided to visit that place and it was called ‘MERKADO sa Muntinlupa’.
Merkado was one of the projects of the city government in Muntinlupa that showcases and promotes small businesses that sell a different product that are made famous by the pandemic. There are clothing stores, Plant shops and one of my most favorite, are those different kinds of food shops like milk tea shops, pizza shops, snacks, etc., during the fair they make sure that all of the visitors there are safe, and the place is an open space so it cannot immediately transmit covid. One of the shops that caught my attention was the only stall that sells a different kind of pizza and the name of that shop is Pizza Crust, they have a lot of buyers on that fair, maybe because of their cheap price, but their product looks so good in the menus. So, I tried one of their bestsellers which is the Supreme crust pizza, and after I tasted it, I realized the reason why they have a lot of buyers it’s because of the uniqueness of their products and the taste itself. The Pizza Crust was established on September 8, 2020. Owned by Sir Jay Sosa De Leon, he resigned from his job as a manager before the pandemic. He decided to make a business to support their needs even though they are not sure if it will be successful or not, they tried to take risks, but after a month their business grew and spread all over Muntinlupa through booking on the food panda applications, so it will be easy for them to take an order. Another blessing for them is to have a kiosk in Merkado’s fair, this has become a steppingstone for people to get to know their business and show how unique their business is.
So, I decided to put their business here on my blog because when I interviewed the owner about his experience on how he ended up with this small business, I was amazed because at the age of 43, he encountered a lot of hindrances on his life before, yet he was able to have this business, while I was talking to him, a sudden thought came on my mind until now, I still remembered what he says, he said that, “even if you are not sure about the things that you want to pursue, pursue it, because no one knows if it is your blessing, or just an experience for your life. Just take the risk even if it’s hard but at least you tried.”
