SM has become a sort of corporate bully, insisting on their terms, on a take it or leave it basis. Kawawa naman yung mga smaller suppliers.

yep

exactly

take it or leave it

if you want your products to appear on SM's shelves, accept the terms SM demands

kaya if you're a small company, don't bother approaching SM

go to smaller retailers

makikilala parin naman ang iyong products without SM's help

the Bonus brand is actually one of the demands SM imposes on its suppliers

SM demands its suppliers to come up with lower cost versions of their products which SM uses for its Bonus brand

those Bonus products are actually produced by the same companies that make branded products

Lupit talaga ng SM.

If we were in the EU, SM would've been sued for monopolistic practices a loooong time ago.

I don't think it's a lower cost or lower quality product from the supplier but rather pareho lang yun, kung ano binebenta ng let us say best food mayonase, best food pa rin yun but repacked parang incentive ng SM if makabenta ng 100 boxes meron silang free 1 box..etc..kaya lahat ng product meron silang SM bonus eh wala naman silang manufcturing...
