“From One Store to a Billion-Peso Brand”Injap Sia, Founder of Mang Inasal
What our clients say
“In Generika, we collectively had considerable business experience in many industries, but little knowledge and exposure to the intricacies of franchising. This crucial gap was largely filled after consultations and talks with Butz Bartolome and GMB.”
“GMB helped us from 7 to 70 in two years. Butz is really the guy to go to if it comes to Franchising.”
“When we felt Lay Bare was ready for franchising we didn’t have to pick from a list of franchise developers. Mr. Butz Bartolome was our specific choice.”
“GMB has been the heart & soul of our Franchise Program. For more than a decade now they have been the foundation of our franchise system.”
“They studied our franchise and created a plan for us to have a real franchise, open to the public.”
