    Trixia Salonga

    Hi! I'm Trixia and welcome to my slice of life. I'm not your average blogger, I'm a hybrid of multi-dimensional shoujo, a rare breed of legal loli and a unique original producer of ideas and inspiration. My path goes on the other side of the road which is less traveled, where thrill and excitement rests. This blog holds my inner thoughts, experiences, opinions and out-of-the-ordinary theories which I keep as a journal of my life's highlights.

    Get your Pie on with the launch of Massive Munchies at Quiapo, Manila


    HISTORY

    After six months of being an employee, Mr. Timothy Davis F. Angara decided to open up a business of his own. About four years ago, during his birthday, his grandmother gave him a little capital to start with, but unfortunately, he had no idea as to the type of  business he’ll undertake. Mr. John Dexter Bautista, who’s a good friend of Mr. Angara,helped him come up with food business. with the capital of Mr. Angara and the knowledge on food of Mr. Bautista, they decided to make their own product, the pocket pie, and sold it near the third gate of St. Paul’s University Dumaguete  St. Paul’s branch, little by little, they enhanced their product and increased the price. They also created other flavors to entice more customers. Years after, they decided to distribute some of their products to Kiosks in Silliman University. Fortunately, their products became profitable and so they decided to extend their operations in a mall.
    In view of the fact that the business is getting bigger, they decided to obtain a loan from a credit company to make things formal and legal. They acquired the necessary permits and documentation and started their legit operations on September 2014 at Robinson’s Mall Dumaguete. Since it’s a "ber"  month, their sales had rocketed up to two to three times than expected. With the great amount of profit they have, they decided to open up a main store at Dr. 5. Locsin Street, Dumaguete city in February 2015. The store served as the main office and as an avenue for exhibiting their products.
