This gives them more ideas and challenge them to add new products and discover what people or buyers want.

May 12, 2011 Cavite MSMEs Entrepreneurial Trip

PCLEDO together with Likhang Kabitenyo Foundation facilitated 2011 Entrepreneurial Trip for MSMEs of Cavite.
First drop was at the Farm Tech

Mr Fabian started with an orientation on the history of Farmtech, how they've started.  And after, we were able to see the processing plant and their equipments.

Afterwhich, a plaque of appreciation were given to him by PCLEDO & LKF representatives.
While on our way out, this little plant caught my attention along the aisle. Nothing relevant to the tour though :)

Next stop was the Ilog Maria Honey Bee Farm.
And the IFEX at SMX, (International Food Exhibition).

One thing that caught my attention was these eyes catching glass bottles.:
They are all-natural coco nectar vinegar that comes in different variants such as:
  • Classic Vinegar
  • Virgin Vinegar
  • Vinegar with Garlic
  • Vinegar with Chilli & Ginger
  • Vinegar with wild Honey
Manufactured by Sorsogon Foods Enterprises, certified organic specialty vinegars.
Telephone #  :  (632) 930.98.59
It comes in 750ml and 350ml glass bottles
Ms. Linda, the owner and at the same time the General Manager let me taste the one with wild honey together with the salad and I like the sweet taste of honey on the vinegar.

And for Packaging related:

Packaging Technology Division - ITDI - DOST
Tel:  (632) 837.20.71 local 2271

They have Package Development inclusive of Shelf-life Testing and Label Design

I had fun and since this was my 1st study joined as an enterpreneur.
Hope one day, I can see myself joining such big Exhibit as well.

1st Exhibit as CMA member at "Ist Dasmariñas Tourism Summit" event

Though my 1st Exhibit was like more on a dry run, the experience had help me a lot in terms of preparation for the next one.

Preparing on joining an exhibit was not easy.  Specially when you have limited resources.
I had limited materials to prepare, limited equipments to use that lessen our productivity.  But it didn't stop me on joining exhibits for me to show my Home made Chocolates.  Here's what I had prepared:

Packs of 4 (Cookies & Cream / Nutty Tsoko / Rocky Road) :
 Heart Box & Hearty Pop:
Tsoko Sticks:
The event was organized by Dasmariñas Tourism Team and luckily, CMA was invited to participate.

I finished making chocolates at 5am of May 11th, the day of the event "the 1st Dasmariñas Tourism Summit" which was held at SM Dasmariñas.  Still, me and Jay R, my brother were able to reach the venue on the agreed set up time.
Ate Amy, the one who helped us join CMA (Cavite Micro-Entrepreneur Association), assisted all of the exhibitors from entering the venue til setting up.  We set up our tables before the mall open.
It's Ate Nhitz Maranan, checking on her booth.
And here's her Food display:

We were done setting up on these photos:
About Ate Amy, she was also an exhibitor.  She carries Seaweed crackers, an organic cracker.  They sell it by Php20, php50 & php 100
And this is Mae.  We had met her from our 1st exhibit at Waltermart, Dasmariñas.  On this event, she's helping Ate Amy.
Am glad also to be with Ate Lhitz, owner of Allena & Kyle Bake shop, who had given me advices and encourage me to join the group.   Guest what?  She sell delicious Pianono, my favorite among her baked goodies :)
And here's her food display:
Men who set up the event area proper few hours before the program.
Excited and nervous at first. Specially when I saw how plenty our co-exhibitors' products display had.
Comparing to my stocks, it's just enough for a display. 
So I decided to go home and make additional chocolates.  Good thing, I have extra chocolates.
And I need to be back before the main event that would start at 4pm.

As I reach back the venue at 5pm, the program started.
Few photos Jay-R had taken:
 And the crowd:
And finally, the selling part:
