10 Trending Business Tuwing Tag-Ulan

Tuwing Hunyo hanggang Nobyembre, madalas bumabagal ang negosyo sa Pilipinas—bawas foot traffic, saradong shops, baha, at brownout. Pero sa kabilang banda, hindi bumabagal ang gastos ng mga tao, at marami ring bagong pangangailangan na lumalabas pag tag-ulan.

Ito ang tinatawag na “economic paradox”—habang hirap ang traditional businesses, may ibang negosyo na mas sumisipa ang benta tuwing ulan, bagyo at baha.

Ang sikreto: huwag umasa sa physical customers. Ang mga negosyong naka-ready sa delivery, digital payments, convenience, at home service… sila ang talagang kumikita.

Sa report na ito, narito ang Top 10 Most Resilient Business Ventures tuwing tag-ulan—kasama ang kung bakit sila kumikita, magkano kailangan na puhunan, at paano sila nag-aadapt sa panahon ng kalamidad.
