Most of you should know that there are only a few huge businesses - and the rest are micro, small and medium enterprises. MSMEs are the ones that needed to be shown so they can develop more. MSMEs are the ones that are in need of specific audiences as the rest of the crowd has been taken by big businesses. Home-Based and Community Livelihood businesses are part of the MSMEs.
Consider the following: We are now in the holiday season, and people are ready to buy stuff for their loved ones or for themselves, but they have to check in different locations just to get the perfect gift. That is aside the fact that as a business, you want to make them buy your product. How can we connect the two together? Through trade fairs, expositions and the like. Ex-Link Events has been doing this for 15 years in Manila, and it's high time that Cebu experience who we are, what we do and what we advocate for MSMEs, and so we are coming there to gather products and services under one roof!
We are giving a chance to home-based businesses to showcase at the OFW & SME Business Christmas Expo Cebu this December 2 to 4 at the Cebu Trade Hall of SM City Cebu! For more information, contact (02) 633-0153, 643-3887, 0920 924 2532 or email info@exlinkevents.com. Limited slots only, so get on your feet and join the Expo!

The Congressional Spouses Foundation Incorporated kicks off the last quarter of this year with the launch of the Kabuhayan National Livelihood and Travel Expo 2016 on November 10-13 at the Megatrade Hall 1 of SM Megamall in Mandaluyong City.
The annual trade fair which started 15 years ago has become a part of the CSFI’s tradition where local products of every region, like fabrics, delicacies, household products and even travel destinations are featured all in one spot!
Designed specifically to assist and boost the capability of the entrepreneurs, it aims to carve a steady market as well as provide additional skills training through seminars and speeches by resource persons who are known experts in business and production.
“Sustainable Livelihood” becomes a reality and placed within reach for the farmers, micro small and medium entrepreneurs who are mostly women, from the different regions of the country.
This year’s Kabuhayan Expo is made more significant because the CSFI collegiately decided to adopt a sector of society that is often, if not totally marginalized – the spouses and families of inmates at the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology.
To date, there are more than 120,000 inmates under the jurisdiction of the BJMP, which leaves their families without income. Kabuhayan Expo 2016 will also provide specific and customized Entrepreneurship and Livelihood training for the spouses of inmates who would like to have an income while at home.
“Introduction to farm schools and farm tourism is also one of the unique features of this year’s trade fair. We are so excited and hopeful that this event will make a difference in some lives,” said Mrs. Emelita Apostol-Alvarez, President and Chairperson of the CSFI.

Shop the best products from around the country and learn business ideas at the 2016 Kabuhayan National Livelihood and Travel Expo this November 10-13, 2016 at the Megatrade Hall of SM Megamall in Mandaluyong City.
This annual trade fair will feature different local products and services for every region as well as local destinations. This is one of CSFI’s assistance to promote inclusive growth with our micro small and medium enterprise (MSME), paving the way for them to sell their products and services not only locally but to the global market.
In this trade fair, seminars on business development, marketing and sales and other business segments are expected on the 2nd and 3rd days of the expo. Farm Tourism and Organic Farming is among the interesting topics. The culminating activity would include the awarding of the different booths in the different categories, "Pinapangarap" (Best New Product), "Bighani" (Best Fashion Accessory), "Katakam-Takam" (Best Food Product) and "Lingap" (Best Social Product).
Other than assisting the MSMEs, a portion of the funds raised here will benefit the BJMP Inmates and their families through livelihood training, product innovations and marketing of the items they produce. BJMP is also given a booth in the expo to help them sell their ongoing products.
