As ‘Ber’ months begin, the holiday season in the Philippines is officially underway. Overseas Filipinos can start the festivities by shopping on TinBo, a platform that partners with Philippine-based online appliance stores ConcepStore and Mang Kosme. This allows them to purchase household and business appliances from renowned brands like Carrier, Condura, Toshiba, SharkNinja, Midea, and Kelvinator for personal use or as Christmas gifts.
