Puregold’s Tindahan ni Aling Puring (TNAP) program serves as a vital link between brands and the masses, particularly in small urban and rural communities. By tapping into the extensive network of neighborhood sari-sari stores, which have become an integral part of Filipinos’ daily lives, brands can gain widespread acceptance and distribution. The TNAP program offers bulk discounts, financial aid opportunities, seminars, and networking events, connecting over 800,000 TNAP members, including sari-sari store owners, with brands and suppliers. One notable event is the Tindahan ng Aling Puring Convention, where brands can sell their products at discounted prices, conduct seminars, and engage with business owners and sari-sari store operators.

Puregold’s President, Vincent Co, emphasizes the convention’s significance in fostering relationships between big brands and sari-sari stores. The convention serves as a platform to promote mutually beneficial partnerships and support the growth of both established brands and thriving small businesses. Prominent FMCG companies, including Nestle, URC, Unilever, P&G, San Miguel, and Coca-Cola, among others, participate in the convention, demonstrating their commitment to the program and their desire to strengthen connections with sari-sari stores. Puregold aims to nurture these relationships over time, ensuring the continued success of both brands and sari-sari stores across the country.
