In an exclusive interview with business mentor Armando “Butz” Bartolome, Jean Grey Santos shares her inspiring journey from teen hustler to successful entrepreneur.
At just 13 years old, Jean Grey Santos began her entrepreneurial journey through shirt printing, subcontracting orders, and saving her earnings. With grit and determination, the young Filipina businesswoman soon ventured into more businesses, showing no fear in facing the challenges of entrepreneurship.
While running a food cart business, Jean noticed a recurring issue with packaging—suppliers often delivered low-quality materials. This caused delays and constant frustration. But instead of giving up, she turned this pain point into profit.
Jean established TATAKANPH, a company focused on providing high-quality and dependable packaging solutions. What started at home quickly grew into a thriving business. Today, TATAKANPH operates in two warehouses and has earned a reputation as a trusted brand in the packaging industry.
Her story is a powerful example of seeing opportunity where others see setbacks. Jean Grey Santos proves that even a common problem can become the foundation of a successful business with the right mindset.
“Fueled by her determination to solve a pressing industry problem, she established TATAKANPH, a business dedicated to providing high-quality, reliable packaging solutions.”
