  • Remittances from Overseas Filipinos Drop 0.3% to $33.2bn in December 2020

    Remittances from Overseas Filipinos Drop 0.3% to $33.2bn in December 2020

    Personal remittances from Overseas Filipinos (OFs) dropped slightly by 0.3 per cent year-in-year to $3.205 billion in December 2020 from $3.216 billion in December 2019, according to data released by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP).

    The slight decrease was attributed to the 0.7 per cent decrease in remittances from land-based workers with work contracts of one year or more to $2.494 billion from $2.512 billion recorded in December 2019.




    Meanwhile, remittances from sea-based workers and land-based workers with work contracts of less than one year rose slightly by 0.8 per cent to $647 million in December 2020 from $642 million in December 2019.

    The full-year 2020 personal remittances from OFs reached U$33.194 billion, lower by 0.8 per cent than the $33.467 billion recorded in 2019.

    Nonetheless, personal remittances remained a major source of the country’s foreign exchange inflows, with the 2020 level representing 9.2 per cent of the gross domestic product (GDP) and 8.5 per cent of the gross national income (GNI).

    Similarly, OFs’ cash remittances coursed through the banks fell slightly by 0.4 per cent to $2.89 billion in December 2020 from $2.902 billion in December 2019.

    Remittances from Land-based Workers Drop

    In particular, cash remittances from land-based workers fell by 0.7 per cent to $2.297 billion, while that of sea-based workers increased by 0.8 per cent to $593.2 million.

    The full-year OFs’ cash remittances amounted to $29.903 billion, lower by 0.8 per cent than the $30.133 billion registered in 2019. The actual annual decline in 2020 was, however, lower than the earlier forecast contraction of 2 per cent for the year.

    By country source, cash remittances from Saudi Arabia, Japan, the United Kingdom (UK), the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Germany, and Kuwait declined, while those from the United States (US), Singapore, Canada, Hong Kong, Qatar, South Korea, and Taiwan increased.

    The US posted the highest share of the total remittances at 39.9 per cent, followed by Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Japan, the UK, the UAE, Canada, Hong Kong, Qatar, and South Korea. The combined remittances from these countries accounted for 78.6 per cent of the total cash remittances. – BusinessNews.ph

  • Grab Launches Second Cloud Kitchen in Manila

    Grab Launches Second Cloud Kitchen in Manila

    MANILA – A year after the launch of its maiden GrabKitchen branch in the Philippines, Grab today announced the launch of its second cloud kitchen.

    Located in Sampaloc, Manila, GrabKitchen brings together eight brands to provide more food choices to consumers.

    It also aims to provide food entrepreneurs the opportunity to launch their brands in new locations with a lower setup cost and to reach a wider base of customers through GrabFood.

    “GrabKitchen is a reflection of our desire to delight consumers and to support food and beverage entrepreneurs to grow their business in the digital economy,” Grab Philippines Head of Deliveries EJ Dela Vega.

    The first GrabKitchen has enabled merchants to establish their brands in Makati, where they did not use to have a physical store, with minimal upfront investments,” Dela Vega added.

    “We hope to bring the same benefits to consumers and businesses through the opening of our Sampaloc branch, “ Dela Vega said.

    The opening of the Sampaloc branch comes nearly a year after Grab unveiled its first GrabKitchen branch in Glorietta 2, in Makati City.

    It housed six merchants, most of which saw their orders grow significantly.

    The second GrabKitchen features eight merchant-partners: Conti’s, Sinangag Express, CoCo Fresh Tea and Juice, Omakase, Mister Kabab, Army Navy, Pizza Telefono, and Happilee.

    Dela Vega said these merchants will add variety in terms of food choices in Manila. Omakese and Happilee are opening their kitchens in Manila for the first time, while the others hope to gain more customers through GrabKitchen.

    He noted that Grab considered several factors in shortlisting the merchants, including identifying the in-demand food items in the area and leveraging data from historical orders to address cuisine gaps.

    GrabKitchen was a concept first introduced in Indonesia in 2018 and has since become the largest regional cloud kitchens operator in Southeast Asia. It has over 50 branches in Southeast Asia including Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, and the Philippines. – BusinessNews.ph
