GAPO OBSERVES MICRO, SMALL & MEDIUM ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT WEEK

Addressing the need of the micro, small, and medium businesses for market exposure in this time of crisis, the Olongapo City Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Development Council (MSmed Council) will be conducting its annual Smed week from July 6 to July 12, 2009.

The SMED week aims to promote a sound entrepreneurial climate that allows the growth and boost the innovativeness of the city's micro, small, and medium enterprises.

“It’s not only enough that we have money to spend, it would be better if we put up our own business,magsimula tayo sa maliit and eventually lalaki yan and everybody will benefit from it,” Mayor James Gordon, Jr. said during the flag raising ceremony on Monday July 6.

The event is being primed as the unifying activity in the Zambales MSMED Council, thus it will showcase not only products from Olongapo City but also from the greater Zambales area.

The weeklong activity will showcase the various products and services of micro, small, and medium enterprises of the city and of other parts of Zambales including the fifteen (15) Gawang Gapo products, Zambrox, makers of stones from Pinatubo and EJ Baker featuring its squash-based products.

The list of activities include a Mini Trade Fair at the exhibit area of the Olongapo City Mall from July 6-10, 2009, bartending demo on July 7 and modern day hilot demo for budding entrepreneurs at the Olongapo City Convention Center on July 8 at 2:00 pm.

Vice Mayor Cynthia Cajudo led the ribbon cutting ceremony at the Olongapo City Mall on Monday, July 6, 2009 along with the members and officers of SMED, city government and barangay officials.
