This last leg of the feria promotes variety of local products of micro, small and medium enterprises assisted by DTI under the 26 Negosyo Centers which are fully supported by the different local government units in the province.
According to DTI Cam Sur Provincial Director Jay Percival Ablan, the participating exhibitors during the trade fair benefited from various skills training offered by the Negosyo Centers, and other attached business organizations.
“In this trade fair, the exhibitors were able to apply what they learned in entrepreneur management, product packaging and good manufacturing practices,” Ablan said.
Since the DTI has launched its last trade fair this year, Ablan thanked the utmost support of the province’s 37 LGUs.
