Who doesn't know Goldilocks? Well, despite being the main person of the famous children story with the three bears, Goldilocks is the biggest bakeshop in the Philippines.
Just a trivia about Goldilocks Bakeshop: In 1966, two sisters Milagros and Clarita, and their sister-in-law, Doris, decided to open a small bakeshop along to the Pasong Tamo Street, Makati. The sisters have already been dabbling in the business for some time ---Milagros, by supplying chiffon slices to a number of Manila’s canteens, and Clarita, by baking and decorating cakes during special occasions in Bicol --- when they decided to take their hobby one step further. A third sister, Maria Flor, suggested that they name the enterprise “Goldilocks“, after the character in a fairy tale, aiming to make it easier for children and their mothers to remember its name; and because it suggested luck and prosperity.
So, to celebrate their 45th year in the business, Goldilocks wants to take part in promoting active lifestyle and health to the Filipinos, in partnership with RunRio Inc., they came up with the Goldilocks Fun Run. This is gonna be the first leg of the new RunRio Series Manila.
This year marks a significant milestone as Goldilocks celebrates 45 Goldilicious years of shared sweet and delightful memories with the Filipino. One of the highlights of this year’s celebrations will the the Goldilocks Fun Run scheduled on May 15, 2011 at the Bonifacio Global City.
