VeMoBro, the newest e-commerce platform to launch in the Philippines, is firm on its position to help Filipino entrepreneurs in establishing a digital presence.

With a promise of featuring all-Filipino brands, VeMoBro designed a seller- and customer-friendly back end that is easier to navigate and use. To ensure customer security, the e-commerce website will host legitimate and registered businesses.

“As we grow our company during a pandemic, our goal, for now, is to be the platform of choice for small business owners (or SMEs),” VeMoBro said in an email interview. “We wish to position ourselves to be a bit of an online sari-sari store (Filipino version of convenience store) but with a wider variety and quality products where you can buy all your essential needs.”

The homegrown e-commerce platform adopts fail-safe features to filter out fake sellers and implements a system that regulates and ensures accurate and easy-to-read product descriptions.

“VeMoBro’s utmost mission is to create a platform that puts a high value on consumer trust,” said Engr. Vergil Bargola, founder and CEO, VeMoBro. “By carefully filtering out, investing in, and supporting legitimate sellers, we assure our customers that our platform does not only attend to their essential needs but also provides a safe e-commerce space.”

New essentials

Bargola also stressed the need to help Filipino MSMEs reach and showcase their products to a wider market. He also said VeMoBro is more focused on onboarding as many small businesses as possible than thinking of competition.

VeMoBro offers a wide array of “new essentials” comprising food and grocery items, home essentials, tech gadgets and accessories, and automotive products. VeMoBro’s easy-to-use and the clutter-free digital platform let customers track their purchases in real-time.

Its logistics system guarantees a standard 48-hour delivery, putting it ahead of the competition. Customers may even opt for same-day delivery with just a simple scroll and click with VeMoBro’s wide range of partner delivery service providers.

“Aside from our same-day delivery USP, our mission is to be a safe online marketplace for both our merchants and customers,” VeMoBro said. “Our regular system updates are done to ensure and secure safe transaction through our platform. With that, we wish for this feature to speak for itself and invite customers and sellers to make us their platform of choice.”

VeMoBro’s flexible payment method provides customers with several payment options. They can opt for cash-on-delivery, online banking, or e-wallet payment through GCash, GrabPay, Coins.ph, and Dragonpay.

VeMoBro will soon launch its mobile app for easier browsing and shopping.
