There’s no denying that technology has changed the way we live from the way we commute to work and the way we shop, to the way we send stuff and packages to people. Today, GrabCar and GrabExpress have been part of our everyday lives. 

And this year, Grab, the superapp that helped us survive the darkest days of the Covid-19 pandemic, is celebrating its 10 "bigaten" years in the country. 

While starting out as a ride-hailing platform, Grab has evolved as the leading superapp across Southeast Asia, providing us unfettered access to our everyday needs while supporting the country’s long term economic recovery and development. On its 10th anniversary, Grab Philippines is throwing a “Biga10” celebration for its drivers, delivery-partners, merchants, and consumers!
