Gelleeshop - It All Started With A Dream and an Advocacy


When I first started this blog, I have been firm about supporting and promoting local brands. Although, I won't be a hypocrite and all so I'd have to admit that there would be times when I use foreign brands; but I intentionally want to have more local brands or products in my closet, in my shoe rack and in my makeup kit and that's how it goes with my stuff right now.

And because of this advocacy, I have decided to create a venue where local products and brands can introduce themselves to a bigger market (and hopefully, soon, we can go international - another dream :D) and tell people that "hey, local (Philippine made) products are awesome. You just need to give us a shot."


That is how Gelleeshop started. The goal of Gelleeshop is not to just sell but introduce or re-introduce quality products from all over the Philippines although I focused more on those that would tickle a woman's fancy. After all, I'm a woman and I wouldn't want to feature products which I, personally, wouldn't consider using.  So, yes, I use and try out first the products I would be featuring in Gelleeshop before I introduce them to everyone.

Aside from the locally made products and brands I would be featuring, I also opened a space for fellow bloggers who would want to do an online sale. Just a little something to help my fellow bloggers out there.

Currently, I have been regularly ordering bags from a supplier in Laguna and talking to a brand of skin care products so you might also see that soon in Gelleeshop.

So if you want to collaborate or partner with us (whether you're a local brand/supplier or a blogger) don't hesitate to shoot us an email at: mailgelleeshop@gmail.com.

And I would also want to encourage you to make your dreams a reality. Do it one step at a time, don't give up, and know that there is always a way.

I am thankful for the people who have continuously been motivating and inspiring me to push for this. Hope you can check out Gelleeshop at Gelleeshop.weebly.com. Our own domain will come soon. One step at a time.
