695 new customers in February — our biggest month yet
A 122% jump from January (312 → 695). Our customer-to-worker ratio now stands at 25:1, confirming demand is far outpacing supply. Heavy focus this month on worker recruitment in Construction and Cleaning.
Record-Breaking February: 695 New Customers
February 2026 has been our best month for customer acquisition since launching the pilot in Tacloban City. We welcomed 695 new registered customers — a massive jump from the 312 we saw in January, representing 122% month-over-month growth.
What’s Driving the Growth
Several factors contributed to this surge:
- Area Partner momentum — The anticipation of the Ormoc City launch generated significant buzz across Leyte
- Word-of-mouth — Satisfied customers in Tacloban continue to be our strongest marketing channel
- Social media — Our Facebook and TikTok presence continues to grow organically
- TESDA partnership — Referrals from TESDA graduates who learned about us through their trainers
The Supply Gap Is Real
Our 25:1 customer-to-worker ratio is both exciting and a challenge we’re actively solving. There is clearly real, unmet demand for verified skilled workers in our areas.
We are aggressively recruiting in:
- Construction (highest demand, 406 orders)
- Cleaning (349 orders, fastest growing)
- Ref/Aircon (202 orders, very high per-worker average)
What This Means Going Forward
With Ormoc City coming online in March and our pipeline of Area Partners growing, we expect to cross 1,000 new monthly customers within the next two to three months.
