The opening ceremony was led by Mrs. Marites Salinda Walker, owner of Salinda Native Products and Pasalubong Center, together with DTI General Santos City Caretaker and Provincial Director Ms. Ethel Laksmi L. Gumana, CESO V, who graced the occasion and reaffirmed DTI's unwavering commitment to expanding market opportunities for local entrepreneurs through the One Town, One Product (OTOP) Program.
