Not your ordinary event. What is so special about this day is the fact that once again, the same sea of over 700 people who were cramped in a 600-seat convention room inched their way out of the hall and congregated in huddles and huge circles like a frenzied townsfolk gathering eager to consume and gobble insights and inspiration from the GFI leadership.
On the 24th of September GlobalFusion marks another unforgettable milestone keeping true to its promise to permanently place GFI in the world map when it signed an exclusive partnership with a global internet phenomenon called Mutliply.com, to become GFI’s official E-Commerce Partner.
Along with the GFI and Multiply Café teams, all guests of the event were treated to sample gallons upon gallons of GFI’s luxurious and healthy drinks. Guests lined up in the multiply booth, attended by the friendly Multiply people for surveys and free use of the internet. With a delicious beverage in one hand, many walked away with free multiply merchandise souvenirs too.
Through a simple but energetic ceremony, both Multiply, led by its country manager Jack Madrid and the head of merchant relations Philips Yu, inked the momentous contract with GFI president Rico Uy and VP Bong Escobido. The partners firmly expressed their sincere desire to help elevate the way GFI distributors’ businesses by providing one of the best e-commerce platforms enjoyed in the market today. In celebration of the Filipino entrepreneurial spirit, this offering will allow all GFI distributors and their growing customer base worldwide, a simple, convenient and secure access to all of its products.
