We are excited to announce that we have successfully served our first local client in customizing box packaging. This marks a significant milestone for our company as we expand our services to meet the unique needs of our clients. The customized box packaging was designed to reflect the client’s brand identity, ensuring their products stand out and create a lasting impression on their customers. This achievement demonstrates our commitment to delivering high-quality, tailored packaging solutions that cater to the specific requirements of our clients, enhancing their overall customer experience. We look forward to continuing this journey and serving more clients with our innovative packaging solutions.

Our business faced a significant setback and was ultimately shut down due to a series of unexpected incidents involving some of our global clients. These incidents included sudden contract cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and unforeseen financial difficulties among our key international partners. The cumulative impact of these challenges was substantial, leading to a severe decline in revenue and operational capacity. Despite our best efforts to mitigate the effects and stabilize the business, the rapid and unanticipated nature of these events left us with no viable path forward at the time. As a result, we had to make the difficult decision to cease operations. This period was a pivotal learning experience for us, and it has since informed our strategies to build a more resilient and adaptable business model.

After shutting down in 2003 due to unexpected issues with some global clients, we began efforts to revive our business. To reach more customers and improve our marketing, we launched online platforms. This included a new website, active social media accounts, and online advertising. We also added e-commerce features to our website, making it easier for customers to buy from us directly. These steps have helped us reconnect with our market, attract new clients, and rebuild our business for the future.

More local clients began to use our services again, rebuilding relationships with us despite the previous year’s challenges. We focused on improving our products and customer service, tailoring our offerings to meet local needs. By engaging with the community and consistently delivering quality, we regained trust and confidence. This support from local clients has been crucial in our recovery and growth, laying a strong foundation for our future.

We took a significant step in our journey by officially re-registering our business as HUSWELL TRADING, based in Quezon City. This milestone marked our formal return to the market with a renewed sense of purpose and structure. Our home office, staffed with two dedicated owners, twelve skilled production personnel, and one reliable driver, was ready to serve our clients with enhanced efficiency and commitment. This year also brought another notable achievement as we secured our first flower shop client located in Dangwa, a renowned flower market. This partnership not only signified our ability to attract new business but also demonstrated our versatility in catering to diverse industries. The collaboration with the Dangwa flower shop showcased our capability to meet specialized needs, further establishing our reputation for quality and reliability in customized packaging solutions. These developments in 2015 were pivotal in strengthening our operational foundation and expanding our client base, setting the stage for future growth and success.

We expanded our services to include offset printing and digital printing due to high market demand. Recognizing the growing need for these services, we invested in the necessary equipment and expertise. This expansion allowed us to offer a wider range of printing solutions to our clients, meeting their diverse needs and staying competitive in the market.

We partnered with a foreign client in Germany, expanding our export operations to two countries. This partnership led to thousands of orders being placed quarterly, significantly boosting our business and international reach.

We made significant strides in expanding our business by opening our first public store and office. This new location allowed us to cater to walk-in clients and enter the retail market, offering our products directly to consumers. To further broaden our reach, we also launched stores on third-party online platforms such as Shopee and Lazada, tapping into the growing e-commerce market.

To support this expansion, we grew our team to include three dedicated employees and partnered with a subcontractor to help fulfill the increasing number of orders. These efforts have enabled us to serve a wider customer base more effectively and continue our growth in the retail and online sectors.

Amidst the global pandemic, our company achieved significant milestones despite the challenges. We successfully relocated to a larger showroom and storage facility, which allowed us to accommodate our growing inventory and better showcase our products. Additionally, our workforce expanded to include 5 employees, indicating growth in our administrative and customer-facing roles. Furthermore, our production team grew to 25 personnel, highlighting our commitment to meeting increased demand and maintaining operational efficiency during uncertain times. These accomplishments underscore our resilience and strategic growth despite the adverse global conditions.

Our company focused on product development by introducing new technology and machinery aimed at enhancing our crinkle shredded packaging accessories. This innovation not only improved the quality and efficiency of our products but also set a new industry standard for eco-friendly packaging solutions. By integrating sustainable practices into our manufacturing process, such as using biodegradable materials or reducing waste, we aimed to meet the growing demand for environmentally friendly alternatives. This initiative not only reinforced our commitment to innovation but also positioned us as a leader in eco-conscious packaging solutions within our industry.

Our company expanded its capabilities by acquiring a UV printer, enhancing our ability to label products more effectively and diversify our offerings in the market. This new machinery allowed us to improve the customization and branding of our products, meeting the specific needs and preferences of our customers with greater precision and efficiency. By leveraging UV printing technology, we could ensure high-quality, durable labels that maintain their appearance over time, thereby enhancing the overall appeal and marketability of our product range. This strategic investment underscored our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction, positioning us to better serve a broader audience and stay competitive in the marketplace.
