About
The idea for a 24/7 shopping channel in the Philippines was not as ubiquitous as it is today. It all began when a family of entrepreneurs decided to take a risk in October 2003, and introduced the concept of home shopping networks to the Philippine market.
Initially, ShopTV of Home Shopping Network aired for 12 hours daily starting November 2005. It later expanded its coverage to 24/7 airing by August 2006.
