The Department of Trade and Industry’s (DTI) National Capital Region (NCR) Office on Thursday opened a four-day trade fair in this city aimed at giving proprietors of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) a launch platform for their businesses.

Tagged “Metro Fiesta de Mayo Trade Fair,” the government-sponsored event is taking place at the Shoppesville Mall in Greenhills, where it will go on until May 22.

A wide variety of goods made by small entrepreneurs are currently being showcased, ranging from processed meats, regional delicacies, leatherwear and beauty products, among others.

San Juan Mayor Francis Zamora and DTI-NCR director Marcelina Alcantara led ribbon-cutting ceremonies opening the trade fair.

Alcantara lauded the city mayor for being supportive of MSMEs as well as for initiating livelihood training programs for his constituents.

For his part, Zamora thanked DTI officials for choosing San Juan as venue for the trade fair.

“This Fiesta de Mayo Trade Fair is a great opportunity to showcase and sell the products (of MSMEs). We all know that Greenhills is known as a shopper’s destination,” said Zamora.

During the event, the mayor pointed out that the mall is presently undergoing expansion and more space will be available to retailers in October.

“This means that more businesses will open here in Greenhills,” he added.

Also at the event were Delia Jimenez, the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s vice president for NCR, and Betty Aw, president of the Metro Manila Association of Food Entrepreneurs. (PNA)
