As the digital economy continues to reshape the Filipino business landscape, GoGo Xpress is recognizing the very entrepreneurs driving this transformation. Through its newly launched BOSSes ng Bayan campaign, the logistics platform honored most standout online sellers in an inspiring event that celebrated the grit, creativity, and passion fueling the growth of local e-commerce.
Held at Lola Café Mabini in San Juan, the BOSSes ng Bayan Brunch brought together top-performing GoGo Xpress sellers, media, and merchant ambassadors for a heartfelt gathering that went beyond business. It was a tribute to the individuals turning side hustles into sustainable ventures, homegrown brands into household names, and dreams into delivery-ready realities.
President and COO of QuadX Inc, Raffy Vicente, delivering the opening remarks.
“This is more than an event, it’s our commitment to championing the real movers behind Filipino e-commerce. Each seller we celebrate today represents thousands more across the country who are building livelihoods online. BOSSes ng Bayan is our way of saying: We see you. We believe in you. And we’re here to help you grow. We’re also introducing an exciting new service called GoNow, which promises 20-minute delivery for every transaction. The pilot launch is set for July.” said Raffy Vicente, President and Chief Operating Officer of QuadX Inc.
Since 2019, GoGo Xpress has enabled more than 329,000 merchants to complete transactions. In 2025 alone, more than 22,000 merchants have already transacted through the platform, nearly 3,500 of whom only joined this year. These figures represent not just business growth but a cultural shift: Filipinos are choosing entrepreneurship, powered by logistics that meet them where they are.
The campaign is rooted in the belief that behind every package is a deeper story of sacrifice, reinvention, and the everyday hustle of Filipino entrepreneurs. GoGo Xpress powers a wide range of sellers across the country, from beauty brands and fashion finds to health essentials and handmade creations. Those spotlighted during the brunch weren’t chosen for sales numbers, but for their creativity, consistency, and community impact. A reflection of the many Filipinos turning online passion into sustainable business.
