The Franchise King. Meet the Founder and CEO of Shawarma Shack with over 750 Branches nationwide




The most dynamic franchise firm in the Philippines and soon will conquer also globally is Shawarma Shack for its best practices and nationwide success. 


The Founder and CEO


One of the young leaders of this generation with proven success. The person behind the success of Shawarma Shack is its Founder, President, and CEO, Walther Uzi Buenavista. In the seven years that Buenavista has been managing the business, his direction is always laser-focused on his three main motivations: Growth, Innovation, and Employment.


Thus, what started as a simple food stall in Divisoria in February 2015 has now become a leading innovator in the food cart business.


Growth 


This growth was also fueled by his desire to bring their products closer to the customers. Shawarma Shack now has stores in key locations across the country with over 750 branches and still counting. "It presented a significant growth in terms of augmenting the demand from our customers and expanding enterprise sales, Buenavista pointed out. 


Because of the company's growth, Francorp Philippines gave Shawarma Shack a “One to Many The Millennial Club Award” in October 2017. This award is given to businesses that were able to reach double-digit number of branches in three years. In 2017, Shawarma Shack already had 28 outlets, the

same year when Buenavista was just 28 years old while Shawarma Shack was only two years old. Today Shawarma Shack has more than 750 branches. 


Franchising


The success of Shawarma Shack lead the way to others to follow. A franchise (or franchising) is a method of distributing products or services involving a franchisor, who establishes the brand's trademark or trade name and a business system, and a franchisee, who pays a royalty and often an initial fee for the right to do business under the franchisor's name and system. As of the moment, Shawarma Shack is opening more branches in different parts of the country. 


For this June 26, 2023 at Embassy of Malaysia, Asia Leaders Awards in partnership with Rising Tigers Magazine will present 10 leaders of this generation. 


The main objective of the awards is to celebrate these leaders to be emulated and to inspire others with their challenges and success. For more information, call 09778978877. Email at president@asialeadersawards.asia

The 9th International Day of Yoga Celebration in PH at Mall of Asia





Manila - The annual celebration of the International Day of Yoga (IDY) was held at the Music Hall of SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City today. The event was attended by over 200 participants who practiced yoga as drawn from the Common Yoga Protocol under the guidance of the leading Yoga gurus and experts in the Philippines. 

The 9th  IDY celebration was held with the theme, “Yoga for Vasudhaiva   Kutumbakam” which means “Yoga for the world is one family.” The event recommenced last year after a two-year gap due to the pandemic. 

The event compered by renowned Radio-host RJ Ledesma started with a devotional hymn (Ganesh Stuti) performed by an Indian expatsinger Ms. Sharada Malladi. The yoga practice commenced with the Suryanamaskar (sun salutation), led by Ms. Janice Cuevas, a certified Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga teacher. This was followed by the practice of key Yoga asanas led by Ms. Donna Lampano, a certified Yoga Guru.

Thereafter, Ms Clara Day Herrera, a certified international expert guided theparticipants through   the Pranayama guided breathing practice. Ms. Iachina Hernandez,   the founder of Better Life Studio, concluded the event through a meditation session. 

H.E. Shambhu S. Kumaran, Ambassador of India to the Philippines felicitated the local yoga teachers and institutions who took part in the celebration. Ambassador noted that as we enter the post pandemic phase,   Yoga is gaining greater popularity   in the Philippines as an effective practice for well-being and prophylaxis. At the same time,the   ancient Indian tradition of   Ayurveda has also generated considerable interest. 

The 5000 year old practice of Yoga, which originated in ancient Indian Civilisation, has now become a practice that transcends cultural and geographic borders. As a key  pathway towards sustaining a  healthy lifestyle across the world and in recognition of its universal appeal, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 21 June as International Day of Yoga in December 2014.

In the run-up to the celebration of IDY, pre-events were organized to  promote awareness on Yoga   across different sections in Metro Manila. Bharati – Indian Expat Women’s Association held yoga practice sessions at the National Training School for Girls and the Haven for Women Institute run   by   the Department of Social Welfare   and Development-National Capital Region (DSWD-NCR) in Muntinlupa City, the Correctional Institution for Women in Mandaluyong City, and the Bureau of Fire Protection in the City of Manila. Yoga practice sessionswere  also conducted by Bharati in Paranaque City’s Nord Anglia International School and Miriam College in Quezon City. In Pampanga City, the Indian Cultural Association of the Philippines (ICAP) held a .Yoga practice   session at Alpha Aviation  Group in Clark. The Indian Women in Enterprise (I-WE) held a Yoga practice session at the Club United, Merville in Parañaque City. 

In the Philippines, yoga continues to rise in popularity and has helped  generate a healthy lifestyle for   local practitioners. Several Filipino Yoga practitioners have visited   India for training, thereby deepening the people-to-people cultural exchanges between India andthe  Philippines. Several  of  them have received training as  certified yoga teachers in India.

As the world continues in gradual re-emergence from the COVID-19 pandemic, the well-being of communities across the globe remainsa great priority. India hopes that enhancing the reach of the healing practice of Yoga, through   the annual celebration of IDY and   other activities, will make a meaningful contribution in this regard.

The Parish of Pope Saint Paul VI Unfolds Love, Faith, Devotion to the Parishioners


 


In May 15, 1997, the earnest desire of establishing a parish in Windward Hills Subdivision has started a new chapter of faith and service for the community.

 

Throughout the years, the Windward Hills Subdivision Chapel has brought forth a community of devotees to Christianity. But, years later, the small chapel of St. Francis of Assisi which was then under the Parish of Our Mother of Perpetual Help in DBB-A  Dasmarinas City, Cavite  grew little by little and expounded the faith of God not only to Windward Hills Subdivision but also to parishioners outside the vicinity.

 


As time goes by, in 2017; Rev Fr. Gabriel P. Chiniona elevated the church’s facility with the kindness and grace of its parishioners who helped in making the chapel into a pastoral center which was then officially agreed and declared as Pope Saint Paul VI Quasi-Parish on April 9, 2019.

 

Throughout the years, the chapel’s ministry of love has expanded towards it host and neighboring communities. Hosted many fruitful events of Catechism.

 


Yet, a new chapter has begun. The previously St. Francis of Assisi Chapel, became Pope Saint Paul VI   Quasi-Parish and finally declared canonically erected as Pope Saint Paul VI Parish through the grace of our God the Creator last May 29, 2023. This remarkable event and accolade were graced and officiated by the Most Reverend Reynaldo G. Evangelista DD., Bishop of the Diocese of Imus, and our very own parish priest - Reverend Father Eugene S. Flores, MS.

 

During this prestigious event, Dennis and Ezelle Theresa Gascon together with their loving children Earl, Baron and Reine gracefully accepted the role of Hermano and Hermana Mayor from the previously - Hermana Mayor - Hon. Mary Ann E. Castor.

 

As Hermano and Hermana Mayor, the family abides a year of commitment and service to the Lord God and to extend the spread of God’s word to the community of love established by this parish.

 

The parish of Pope Saint Paul VI embarks to a new journey of love, faith, and devotion to the people around its vicinity in the succeeding years to come.
