The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Quezon Provincial Office, in partnership with the Canadian Executive Service Organization (CESO), conducted an entry meeting via Zoom with Eleanor Canlas, Amstature Foods Owner and One Town, One Product (OTOP) PH Lucena Operator, and Canadian Volunteer Advisor, Carmen Gagnon.

The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the six-week assignment of CESO from 6 January to 10 February 2022, which is to develop an e-commerce website for the OTOP Hub PH-Lucena as well as train the staff/team on how to manage, maintain, and modify the website, along with training on the intricacies of digital marketing. Through this, Amstature could be able to get through the pandemic as they could promote their products through websites and possibly reach a wider market to generate more sales.

Also present in the meeting were Vener Valerio, CESO Project Officer, Catherine Yagaya, Amstature Staff, Regine L. Avellano, and Honeylee O. Eclavea of DTI Quezon. ♦
