Riding on the celebratory vibe of town fiestas to promote local industries in areas where it operates, Metro Retail Stores Group, Inc. (MRSGI) recently opened its GO LOKAL Bayanihang Metro Caravan in Mandaue, Cebu and in Lucena, Quezon, coinciding with the Mantawi and Pasayahan festivals, respectively.
These celebrations provide opportunities to showcase local products and services, particularly those in the health & nutrition, agribusiness, and food sectors managed by micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). MRSGI’s partnership with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) further provides impetus to help these businesses find their niche in the market.
The GO LOKAL Bayanihang Metro Caravan aims to further push local MSME products to the mainstream public. Metro is equipping entrepreneurs with space and kiosks in select Metro stores in various areas across Luzon and Visayas to showcase and promote high-quality home-grown products for a duration of one month during town fiestas.
