The activity was participated in by fifteen (15) micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) from Legazpi City, Albay.

The training aimed to enhance the participants’ knowledge and skills in pili craft-making, a unique and creative way of utilizing pili shells and other related materials to produce handicrafts and decorative items.

Through this activity, participants were introduced to various techniques and processes in crafting pili-based products, allowing them to explore innovative ways of transforming local resources into marketable items.

This initiative reflects the continuous commitment of the Negosyo Center SEDCen and its partners to provide relevant capacity-building programs that empower MSMEs, promote local resources, and encourage sustainable livelihood opportunities in the province.

In great acknowledgement to Mr. Robert O. Lorin, owner of Obhetz Arts and Crafts, for sharing his knowledge and expertise to improve the quality and skills of the artisans.
