The Tindahang Pinoy will be launched on December 5, 2011, 3:00 p.m., at the Bridges Town Square in Mandaue City, Cebu to cater to local buyers and tourists.
According to DTI regional director Asteria Caberte, the Tindahang Pinoy is a microcosm of the Philippines since products which use high quality materials will come from all over the country.
Managed by the Cebu-GTH, the Tindahang Pinoy Cebu outlet will sell products of various micro, small and medium enterprises nationwide; while the DTI provides the suppliers and arranges the logistical requirements through third-party providers.
Products under the One Town, One Product program of the DTI will certainly be included, Caberte said. In fact, around 70% of products in the Tindahang Pinoy Cebu outlet will be sourced in Central Visayas, 30% in other regions in the Philippines, she added.
Initially, Tindahang Pinoy branches will be opened in Cebu, Clark and Davao.
To aggressively promote the Tindahang Pinoy to tourists, the DTI plans to work closely with the Department of Tourism (DOT), hotels and tour operators.
The Cebu-GTH is a non-stock, non-profit organization of exporters that provides services for the development of the sector with members producing home accessories, housewares, decors and furnishings.
