Gold Fortune Textile (GFT), one of the leading textile and garment providers in the country, is participating in the first Shop Taytay Bazaar, to be held until Sept. 14, 2025, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., at the Megatrade Hall 1 of SM Megamall.
The bazaar is organized by Shop Taytay, a group of people from Taytay itself, most of whom are engaged in the fabric and garment industry. In collaboration with DTI Rizal and SMX Convention Center, the event showcases the strong entrepreneurial spirit of the community.
It aims to support small and medium entrepreneurs by bringing more people closer to Taytay-made shoes, apparel, fabrics, sewing materials, and authentic gustatory delights.
GFT Textile, in collaboration with the organizers, is not only a major sponsor but also actively involved in the planning.
“Our goal extends beyond earning profits—we also want to help small businesses in Taytay, especially tiangge owners, gain recognition and attract more customers with their unique products,” says GFT CEO Enrico Sy. “Supporting the Shop Taytay event directly aligns with GFT’s vision and mission by expanding our presence as a leading provider of textiles and garments. Our aim to provide customers with high-quality, affordable textiles and efficient processes is reflected in empowering small businesses and tiangge owners to grow their markets. By helping entrepreneurs showcase their products, we make quality garments more accessible to a broader audience, which is a key part of our mission,” he adds.
Furthermore, GFT’s value of treating people like family extends beyond the community it serves. Sponsoring this event demonstrates its dedication to supporting local businesses, encouraging growth, and fostering stronger community ties.
Shoppers can expect over a hundred booths at the first Shop Taytay Bazaar, offering textile fabrics, sewing equipment and accessories, local apparel brands, bags, shoes, fashion accessories, home care products, and Taytay’s local delicacies.
GFT also operates a branch in Cebu offering a wide range of products, including accessories, plain and printed fabrics, and sewing equipment. Among the highlighted items at the bazaar are its high-quality Eyelet, Challis-Rayon, and Brocade fabrics.
“To ensure excellence, we prioritize using GFT fabrics in our production, maintaining high-quality standards while enhancing the style of Taytay-made garments. GFT fabric remains the foundation of our creations,” states Sy, who is also the chairman of GFT Foundation.
GFT’s participation in this event emphasizes the efforts of Taytay’s business owners. Sy believes it will positively impact Taytay’s economy, as tiangge owners will have a great opportunity to reach more customers, boost sales, and potentially create jobs.
With lively displays and interactive booths, the Shop Taytay Bazaar promises more than just a shopping experience—it’s a celebration of Taytay’s craftsmanship and entrepreneurial spirit. Visitors can look forward to live demonstrations and special offers that showcase the dedication and skill in each product. Beyond just commerce, the event encourages collaboration among local businesses, forging new partnerships and innovations within Taytay’s vibrant textile and apparel industry.
