Proudly Pinoy: Setting the Gold Standard in Local Products

With the success of our Filipino athletes at the recently concluded Olympics, Filipino Pride is at an all-time high. This proves that if we support local Filipino talent, we can achieve outstanding results. The same is true for our local products.

With the right attention and support, we will see local crafters, social enterprises, and indigenous communities flourish and achieve THE GOLD STANDARD in local product manufacturing.

This year, we have once again put together only the best products from local communities across the Philippines to give you Christmas gift suggestions that champion Filipino craftsmanship, sustainability, community support, and empowerment.

Crafted by Filipino Artisans

This Filipino gift box of artisanal chocolates are from Theo and Philo. They are proudly made from local cacao from Davao. They have several award-winning chocolate variants with interesting and authentically Filipino flavors like adobo, turon, and calamansi.

Promoting Sustainability the Filipino Way

This Christmas gift set is in every sustainable homeowner's wish list. This curated gif box contains ecofriendly items from Zippies PH and wooden acacia plates by craftsmen from Bamban, Tarlac.

Supporting Filipino Communities

Another Christmas gifting favorite is this trio from Gawad Kalinga's very own line of spreads called First Harvest. It has two peanut butter jars: one uses coconut sugar, the other has crunchy pinipig bits. Plus, the yummy salted coco caramel that just reminds us of our childhood merienda time. It is proudly made by community members of Gawad Kalinga from the GK Enchanted Farm in Bulacan.

Empowering our Fellow Filipinos 

Looking for Christmas gift suggestions for your bosses? Look no further! This box contains special gifts from Jacinto and Lyrio and Custom Made Crafts Center. The valet tray from Jacinto and Lyrio is lined with vegan leather made from dried water hyacinth plant (commonly known as water lily). They empower families affected by the infestation of those water lilies by giving them livelihood opportunities. The bamboo letter opener and notepad holder are both from CMCC, which is a network of NGOs and CBOs that work together to empower forest dependent communities. They work with master weavers and indigenous artisans to create authentic Filipino products that help sustain and promote our local culture and traditions.

This Christmas, let's celebrate Filipino ingenuity and creativity. Choose local products that embody the spirit of bayanihan and love. By putting local products on a pedestal, we are bringing more GOOD to our fellow Filipinos and showcasing our Filipino Pride to the world. By supporting our own, we're not only giving meaningful gifts but also uplifting our communities.

Happy shopping, and Maligayang Pasko mula sa The Good Store!
