Besides this, the DAR will also earmark P180,000 for the skills and managerial training of the officers and members of SARBO. It will extend another P370,000 for product enhancements, member capacity building, and marketing initiatives.DTI, on the other hand, will assist them in adapting its products to market demands and sell them to marketing events.
“SARBO, consisting of 130 members, is already producing eight delicious varieties of banana chips that are selling like hotcakes in stores, pasalubong centers, and offices around the province. They plan to introduce chocolate-flavored banana chips, which will be a delicious addition to their existing flavors,” Bequillo said.ADVERTISEMENT
