As the lead agency in the implementation of the One-Town-One Product project of the National Government, the Department of Trade and Industry-Albay Provincial Office will hold a three-day Assessment and Planning Workshop for the Project Stakeholders on November 21-23, 2006 at the People's Hall, Albay Capitol, Legazpi City.
The activity primarily aims to evaluate the impact of the program to the various beneficiary-enterprises and at the same time to formulate plans and programs to further develop the sectors identified.
In the Province of Albay, each municipality has been identified with specific product and service distinct in the area. These products and service are categorized in three major sectors which include Gifts and Housewares (ceramics, abaca handicrafts, cutlery, seagrass products, lasa (softbroom) etc), Processed Food (Pinangat, Longanisa, Linanggang (native foods), Kalamay (sugar cane) and Information and Communications Technology (ICT).
To ensure that the objectives of the program are being carried out, various assistance were provided to each sector which include business counseling, skills and entrepreneurial training, product development and marketing through participation to several local, national and international trade fairs. These assistances provided were made possible through the convergence of support from Local Government Units, National Government Agencies and the Private sector.
