Cafelayan Hydroponics Lettuce Farm, founded by Mr. Jeffrey Sereno in 2022 at Tulungatong, Zamboanga City, is a beacon of innovation in sustainable agriculture. Specializing in fresh, crisp lettuce grown through advanced hydroponic methods, the farm embodies Jeffrey’s vision of creating a community gathering place. The name “Cafelayan” merges “Cafe,” representing relaxation, with “Layan,” derived from “Palayan,” symbolizing life and sustenance.

Driven by his dedication, Mr. Sereno expanded his farm’s offerings to include lettuce chips, a healthy and innovative snack alternative. These chips, made from the farm’s freshest produce, have quickly gained popularity across the Philippines. Cafelayan has attracted a loyal customer base, including many who purchase through platforms like TikTok and Shopee.

As Cafelayan continues to flourish, Mr. Sereno remains focused on his dream — creating relaxing café by the rice fields.
