HOW can you sell a “sustainable lifestyle” and help save the environment? Answer: Echostore.
Founded by Reena Francisco of the Figaro Foundation, Jeannie Javelosa–writer-artist and Board of Trustee Member of the Yuchengco Museum, and Chit Juan, co-chair of the Philippine Coffee Board, Echostore offers products that are proudly Philippine made.
Echostore offers green products from “Malunggay” pesto to biodegradable detergents.
During my interview with Juan, she confesses it is a challenge putting up a store that sells green products. So far, however, they have received an overwhelming response.
“We are espousing a sustainable lifestyle,” Juan said.
