Entrepreneur Nelson Par, owner of PR Gaz Haus, was bestowed the Globe Business Masigasig Award during the awarding ceremony of the Entrepreneur 10 Awards, an annual project of Entrepreneur Philippines. Globe Business supported the Entrepreneur 10 Awards which recognizes the achievements of top small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that have made names for themselves and have been successful in the Philippines and abroad.
Touted as the real heroes of the Philippine economy, SMEs make up more than 90 percent of all businesses in the country. Globe bestows the Masigasig Award to the most persistent and creative entrepreneur, who knows how to find opportunities, stays focused on his goals, and is driven by his advocacy.
Founded in 2001, PR Gaz Haus started with a single LPG refilling plant before setting-up retail outlets in 2003. The PR Gaz Haus LPG convenience store involves selling LPG products and accessories, as well as gas stoves for household and commercial use. What sets PR Gaz Haus apart from its competition is its free delivery and installation of LPG tanks, check up, cleaning and minor repair of stoves as well as its signature LPG brand.
PR Gaz is the also first LPG company to implement a loyalty program for customers, called Suki ni Gazman card. Members get 5% discount on any purchases made at PR Gaz stores. PR Gaz also has a partnership with Union Appliances allowing it to sell Union stoves in its stores at special prices. Currently serving customers in Metro Manila, Cavite, Laguna, Pangasinan, Tarlac, La Union, Bulacan, Zambales and Pampanga, Mr. Par intends to expand to other urban areas in Southern, Eastern and Central Luzon.
Today, the PR Gaz Haus franchise is one of the top investment options available in the country.

Globe Business is a solid partner and proactive business enabler of SMEs all over the Philippines.
