Mr. Diosdado C. Cabotaje (President) Fleet Maintenance & Consultancy Services, Inc. Balagtas, Batangas City, Batangas Metalock Engineering UK Limited is an established mechanical equipment repair company with proven expertise in quality repairs, maintenance, bespoke modifications and equipment upgrades around the world. It was started in the year 1930’s. After a long journey of the company, they hired more specialists and engineers. In 1947, they were acknowledged leader in specialist mechanical repair, ranging from on-site machining and metal stitching repairs, welding and alignment, metal spraying and electromechanical work. Because they are offering all these services in one place, the customers are enjoy with peace of mind and satisfy to their cost-effective one-stop repair and maintenance service. Year 2006, Metalock Philippines located at Makati, Philippines was bought by Mr. Cabotaje and renamed it to Fleet Maintenance and Consultancy Services, Incorporated having the same service offering with Metalock Engineering. Metalock Engineering allowed FMCS to use the brand “Metalock” or represent the Metalock Philippines by not using the name of the company. From meager resources and personnel in its early years of operation, the company grew and increased in all aspects of operations. The successful growth of FMCS has been achieved through their quality of work and emergency services provided. The FMCS services have its application in almost every field of the industry. The company started as an all-in place service firm. “It has no shop nor plant but only tools plus the know-how”. Today, the FMCS shop support facility is being developed. Steps are being undertaken to further improve and expand company’s service capabilities. The company availed the SETUP program through the DOST PSTC Batangas for technological interventions in upgrading their production facilities. The project was approved in December 2015 with the provision of the Vertical Turret Milling Machine which will be implemented in the first quarter of 2016. The project aims to speed up the production process and increase sales, to eliminate the subcontracting practice of the company, strengthen the capability of FMCS in terms of fabrication, improve their product and service quality, reduce rejects, generate savings and increase the production capacity. Page 3 of 54 Technology Upgrade of the Sortidos Production of Panaderia Pantoja, Inc. Mr. Arthur Anthony G, Pantoja (President / COO) Panaderia Pantoja, Inc. #81 A. Mabini Ave., Tanauan City Batangas In 1950, the couple Aurelio and Celinda Pantoja arrived in their inherited house in Barangay IV, Tanauan City, Batangas and found a worn out brick oven in the backyard. The oven inspired Aurelio to start a bakery business. With only a capital of Php 50, 000, Aurelio rehabilitated the oven and hired few bakers from neighboring towns. During that time, there were no mechanical equipment such as mixers, rounders, dough rollers and slicers. Everything was made and processed by hand. Aurelio performed multiple jobs and functions from being the purchaser, delivery man and production manager while Celinda handled the day-to-day operations of the bakery. There were only two bakeries in Tanauan, Panaderia Pantoja and Almeda Bakery. The couple relied only on “word of mouth” to market their products which at that time were only limited to pandesal, jacobina, paborita, and a few other old time favorites. The couple has six (6) children and their eldest son Arturo had a strong interest in the business. Arturo, after obtaining a degree in Business Administration from the University of the East, took over the business in 1970 and started mechanizing the operations and hired more people. By that time, new bakeries have emerged in town. Panaderia Pantoja was no longer affected since it has already established its name and a loyal customer base. Panaderia Pantoja has become one of the largest bakery chain business in the province of Batangas with franchisees, dealers, and company owned branches in different towns in Batangas, Cavite, Laguna and the Greater Manila Area. Panaderia Pantoja has also entered the international market by exporting some of the products from the Sortidos (biscuits) line through a consolidator. In 2012, Panaderia Pantoja was awarded their first SETUP project in upgrading their production facility. DOST interventions provided to them were the following: acquired equipment to increase production capacity and compliance to GMP and HACCP through SETUP; nutritional and shelf-Life Analysis of jacobina (SETUP) and biscocho product; manpower training on GMP, 5s and HACCP; conduct of Energy Audit; and consultancy (MPEX) and technical advisory services on production process and plant lay-out and facilities. Over-all impact of the project is 33% increase in the production and sales. Seeing other needs for improvements and upgrades due to increasing market demand, Panaderia Pantoja applied again for DOST assistance through TAPI Venture Financing in upgrading their sortidos production line. Through TNA, they identified the need for acquisition of cookie forming machine and senior Page 4 of 54 dough roller. MOA signing of the project was conducted last December 2015 and equipment acquisition will be in the first quarter of 2016. Expected outputs of the project include elimination of backlogging in the rolling process and maximizing the production line, improve in production of sortidos, ensure product quality for fixed roller adjustment for sortidos line, improvement in production time, reduction of remnants of dough using the machine, savings on man-hours, reduction of rejects from deformed cuttings and maximization of mixer capacity. Upgrading the Production Facility of Marzel Woodworks and Sash Factory Marcelo M. Mendoza (Proprietor) Marzel Woodworks and Sash Factory Brgy. Malinis, Lemery, Batangas The Marzel Woodworks and Sash Factory began its operation in the furniture industry in the year 2003 in Brgy. Tubigan, Lemery, Batangas. However, the business was stopped in the year 2005 to 2008 because his brother went abroad. Engr. Marcelo Mendoza decided to continue the business in the year 2009 for his son, an student in college with a Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship to have this actual experience in the field of entrepreneurship. He established Marzel Woodworks and Sash Factory in Brgy. Malinis, Lemery, Batangas because of its accessibility to the customers. At first, he did not know who their customers are but with the help of old customers and referrals, he continued to grow the business. It is a family business with his wife as the manager and his son as business adviser. To upgrade their production facility, Engr. Mendoza tapped the assistance of DOST PSTC Batangas for SETUP program. The project proposal was submitted/endorsed for TAPI Venture Financing Program to acquire the FPRDI-designed kiln dryer and other equipment for furniture business. The TAPI/DOST Team already visited and validated the project proposal. The project is expected to be approved and implemented in 2016 with target outputs of increased production volume and sales, improved the processes on planing, sanding,

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to find out the profile of the producers engaged in tupig production, find out their reasons in engaging in tupig production, determine the sales of the tupig per production and find out the factors that affect the sales of the producers. It was found that most of the producers were secondary and elementary graduates. Producers engaged in tupig production as their only source of income. Tupig was a highly demanded because lot of the tourist and devotees were looking for tupig as a “pasalubong” or take home present or snacks. They also sell some “pasalubong” products like “bukarilyo,” “bukayo”, banana and camote ships and “alamang” for additional profit to maximize the use of their market location and to grab also the opportunity to offer some products of Pangasinense to tourists. Date and day were the major factors that affect the sales of tupig like during Christmas and New year season, Holidays, Holy week, festival of Manaoag, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are the peak season increased sales of tupig. Weather can Profitability of Tupig in Manaoag, Pangasinan CORLA, MICHELLE S. APRIL 2013 also affect the sales of tupig because even if it is peak season if the weather is bad it can decrease the sales of tupig. Producers used their personal money as their capital in producing tupig. The amount of capital they used per production is from Php 500.00 to 1,200.00 and it provided a net gain of Php 863.00 per production or per day.

Parilla Northwestern University, Philippines DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v3-i7/75 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v3-i7/75 Abstract: OTOP Philippines supports micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to manufacture, offer and market distinctive products or services through the use of indigenous raw materials and local skills and talents. It is a government program that supports micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to manufacture, offer, and market distinctive products or services through the use of indigenous raw materials and local skills and talents. Here in Ilocos Norte, One-Town- One-Product program is being spearheaded by the local chief executives of the different municipalities and towns and the Department of Trade and industry. Through several local ordinances, the different towns and cities have identified their own products under the program which will receive the support of the government and of the Department of Trade and Industry. This research aimed to find out the economic impact of One Town One Product program of the government in the Province of Ilocos Norte. The OTOP owners in Ilocos Norte are already adult, dominated by college graduate and married women. Most of them have not attended seminars and trainings and are not members of professional organizations. Majority of the OTOP businesses in Ilocos Norte have existed for 16-20 years and are engaged in manufacturing and most of them are sole proprietor.

A. Balendres ([email protected]) Abstract This paper reviews the current knowledge of pepper anthracnose in the Philippines. We present research outputs on pepper anthracnose from the last three years. Then, we present evidence of the widespread occurrence of C. acutatum sensu lato in the Philippines. Finally, we highlight some research prospects that would contribute towards developing an integrated anthracnose management program. Keywords: Colletotrichum truncatum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, chilli anthracnose, polymerase chain reaction assay, disease distribution I. Knowledge review of pepper anthracnose in the Philippines Pepper in the Philippines Pepper (Capsicum sp.) is an important vegetable crop in the family Solanaceae. It is mainly added as a spice or condiment in various dishes. In the Philippines, there is a demand for pepper in both the fresh and processing markets. However, it is a relatively small industry compared to other vegetable crops, e.g., tomato. The Cordillera and Northern Mindanao regions produce the most but, other areas, e.g., in the CALABARZON and Central Luzon, also steadily produce pepper. The price of pepper can reach to as high as Php1,000 per Kg (USD 20), making pepper cultivation attractive to small-scale growers as a source of income. Within three months, depending on the pepper variety, growers can start harvesting the fruits, that could last to several priming’s (harvests).

Food spaces in the Philippines incorporate a wide range of venues and activities that increasingly transcend social class and public/domestic contexts as the photos in this essay showcase in profound and subtle ways. The pictures contained herein reveal as much about globalization’s multiscalar impact as they do Filipinos’ longstanding ability to adapt and assimilate externalities into more traditional modes of dietary practice. Keywords: Philippines, foodways, globalization Asia Pacific Perspectives Contemporary Filipino Foodways - Ty Matejowsky • 67 Volume 16, No. 2 (2020) For various historical and geopolitical reasons, the Philippines remains largely distinct in the Asia Pacific and, indeed, around the world when it comes to the uniqueness of its culinary heritage and the practices and traditions surrounding local food production and consumption. While the cuisines of neighboring countries (e.g. Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and China) have enjoyed an elevated status on the global stage for quite some time, Filipino cooking and its attendant foodways has pretty much gone under the radar relatively speaking Figure 1.
