It is said that because of this, it is in SM’s DNA to enable and inspire small businesses like the one it once was.

This is available to the first 100 digital-based MSME owners who currently don’t have a shop inside SM or any other physical store in general.The package offers features such as start-up friendly rental rates and use of kiosks or carts free of charge; marketing assistance to give the brand free exposure in SM online assets and ad spaces inside malls; financial assistance with BDO; and mentorship from SM experts on operations and marketing.
