COOPERATIVE TRADE FAIR 2025: A Grand Showcase of Cooperative Products, Passion, and Purpose

In celebration of National Cooperative Month 2025, we proudly held the Cooperative Trade Fair last October 15, attended by 11 active cooperatives from our city. The event kicked off as early as 7:00 AM, transforming the venue into a vibrant marketplace filled with the spirit of cooperation and entrepreneurship.

Each cooperative showcased and sold their quality products—from rice, canned goods, smoked fish, and snacks to candles, acrylic flower beads, lucky charm bracelets, coin purses, dishwashing liquids, and many more. The creativity and dedication of our local cooperatives in promoting sustainable livelihoods were truly remarkable.

Among the participants:

ACDI Multipurpose Cooperative achieved the highest sales at ₱13,700.00
Pasco Producers Cooperative followed with ₱10,300.00
Laboratory Cooperative of Agro Homes Multi-Purpose Cooperative earned ₱6,150.00

These results were especially impressive for the youth participants who joined the trade fair for the first time. The total sales for the one-day event reached ₱62,764.00!

This event truly highlighted the spirit of bayanihan and the power of cooperation—proving that when we work together, we all rise together.
