Nang Senyang’s lumpia with puso

She would stand outside the school gate, carrying a basket full of home-made lumpia and puso.

She would wait for students of St. Alphonsus Catholic School (SACS) in Lapu-Lapu City to go out during recess time.

That was in 1982.

Now, Hertrudes Tendon is running a store outside the school.

She is also making a daily net profit of P4,000 by selling at least 1,000 pieces of lumpia at P12 each.

Tendon, 56, who is fondly called Nang Senyang, recalled how she started the business.

In 1973, Senyang decided to make 100 pieces of lumpia using a start up capital of P100 to augment the family's income.

The salary of her husband, Antonio, who worked in a flour factory, was barely enough to support a family of three.

She said she worked in a restaurant owned by Rosita Ycong when she was still single. That was where she developed her entrepreneurial skills.

She made crunchy spring rolls locally known as lumpia and sold them in the neighborhood at 3 pieces for 40 centavos.

After a few years, she would go around the city to sell her lumpia.

In 1982, she found a better market for her lumpia — students of SACS.

She was then resting with a friend, an ice drop vendor at the Lapu-Lapu City plaza, near the school.

It was recess at that time.

The students gathered around her friend to buy ice drop. They then asked what she was selling.

The students bought her lumpia and liked it. They then told her to wait outside the gate of the school so they could buy her lumpia during recess time.

“I would wait outside the gate during their recess time at 9:30 a.m. and during lunch break. I would brave the rains, wind and heat of the sun just so I could sell my lumpia,” she said.

After five years, her capital of P350 would earn P300 a day.

In 1987, she got lucky, when a maintenance personnel of the school helped her rent a space inside the school premises to sell her lumpia.

She would pay P10 to the nuns as rent. She sold her lumpia then at P2.50 each. With the captured market of the students, her lumpia was a hit.

In 1988, she rented two stalls outside the school, selling 300 pieces of lumpia. She then started selling other products like buko juice, sago, softdrinks, hotcake and yema or milk candy.

In 2000, she closed the stall and rented a room opposite the school which she converted into a restaurant called t Lumpia ni Senyang.

Nang Senyang also shared that the business had helped send her seven children to school.

The secret of her success: perseverance, cleanliness, being friendly to customers and faith in God.

She seems to have the right formula for success because she now has a stall outside the University of Cebu in Lapu-Lapu and Mandaue, which is run by one of her daughters.

Another daughter sells lumpia in their house in barangay Gun-ob, Lapu-Lapu while her two other daughters help her in the store near SACS.

They even accept orders, she said.

Some of the students, who graduated from SACS, would occasionally dine at her restaurant.

One of them is Stephen Dioresma, a seaman by profession and a SACS graduate who would frequent eating in Nang Senyang's store every time he was home.

He would even bring his friends or relatives to eat there.

Other SACS graduates who are professionals now like Karen Cosep, Erely Degamo, Joy Fuentes, Ann Batiller, Sheila Rosaroso and Janice Baluya also visit Nang Senyang's place to eat lumpia and puso.

But Nang Senyang has no plans of slowing down.

In the pipeline are her plans to put up a stall near the University of Cebu main campus in Cebu City and own the place they are renting right now.

She also wanted to have a mobile tindahan that will service the two Mactan export processing zones in the city.
