    Overview

    Packworks is a Filipino B2B platform that digitalizes the country's neighborhood sari-sari stores, serving a network of over 300,000 micro-retailers. Through its app ecosystem (Sari.PH and Sari.PH Pro), store owners get inventory management, bookkeeping, sales tracking, and direct ordering from suppliers. Its Sari IQ engine turns store transaction data into business insights. Packworks brings embedded working capital to the underbanked retail sector, partnering with licensed lenders — including 1Sari Financing Corporation and Cebuana Lhuillier — to offer in-app inventory-financing credit lines that help stores restock and grow.
