The Womenโ€™s Trade Fair 2026 successfully showcased MSME products from across Eastern Visayas, generating strong market engagement and sales performance. The event exceeded expectations, highlighting the growing competitiveness of women-led enterprises in the region.

From March 26โ€“29, 2026, at Robinsons Place Tacloban City, local womenpreneurs achieved a total of โ‚ฑ4,231,155 in sales. The Guiuan Integrated Micro Entrepreneurs Association (GIMEA) stood out as the top seller in the food sector, offering a diverse range of delicacies from Guiuan, Eastern Samar. While food products remained the primary revenue driver, homestyle and decorative items also captured strong consumer interest. Natyโ€™s Antique Shop earned recognition as the top seller in the non-food sector with its crafted hardwood furniture.

The fair was a resounding success - surpassing targets and reinforcing the vital role of trade fairs in driving MSME growth, expanding market access, recognizing the significant contribution of women in the economy, and fueling regional development.

Continuing the rollout of the 2026 Kapatid Mentor MEโ€“Money Market Encounter (KMME-MME) Online, the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship โ€“ Go Negosyo, in partnership with the Department of Trade and Industry, launched the program in Region VIII (Eastern Visayas) on March 24, 2026, welcoming 48 MSME mentees from across the region.

Hosted by Ms. Veness Jastillana, the aspiring mentees were welcomed by Regional Director Celerina T. Bato during the online launching. This was followed by recorded messages from DTI-ROG Undersecretary Blesila A. Lantayona and Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship โ€“ Go Negosyo Executive Director Anthony Patrick Chua, which further heightened the excitement of the mentees as they embark on their 10-module mentorship journey under the structured program.

DTI Region 8 in partnership with the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) Area 8 - Tacloban City, began showing educational videos on Consumer Rights and Responsibilities on the digital display monitors located at the Check-in and Pre-Departure Areas of Daniel Z. Romualdez (DZR) Tacloban Airport starting March 12, 2026.

This initiative is part of DTI 8โ€™s broader participation with the global community in celebrating the World Consumer Rights Day on March 15, 2026. With the theme โ€œSafe Products, Confident Consumers,โ€ the celebration emphasizes the right of every individual to access safe, high-quality products, while also underscoring the responsibility of consumers to make informed and mindful choices.

By bringing this advocacy directly to travelers, DTI Region 8 aims to raise awareness and empower consumers with practical knowledgeโ€”how to assert their rights, seek redress for defective goods or unsatisfactory services, and ensure protection under the Consumer Act of the Philippines (R.A. 7394).
