Metro Retail Stores extends DTI partnership to support more MSMEs

Metro Retail Stores Group, Inc. (MRSGI) is extending its support for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) across the country through Bayanihang Metro Caravan, a continuation of its partnership with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).

Following the previous Bayanihang Metro x Go Lokal! initiative, DTI and MRSGI are again joining hands to celebrate the Philippines’ regional festivals. Through the caravan, local products are made more accessible for tourists and shoppers who are joining the festivities, encouraging them to support and patronize local products from MSMEs. 

Metro will be equipping entrepreneurs with space and kiosks in select Metro stores in various areas across Luzon and Visayas to showcase and promote high-quality homegrown products for one month during town fiestas. 

MRSGI will also roll out the Bayanihang Metro Caravan in various Metro Retail Store locations during significant local festivals in succeeding months such as Mantawi Festival, Pasayahan sa Lucena, Pintados-Kasadyaan Festival, Pasig City Day, Ibalong Festival, Karansa Festival, Peñafrancia Fiesta, MassKara Festival, Binaybayon Festival, and Sinulog Festival.
