ICYMI | As part of the celebration of Sampaguita Festival 2024, the City Government of San Pedro, together with DA-AMAD, DTI, DOLE, DSWD, and DILG held Kadiwa ng Pangulo today, May 4, 2024 at San Pedro City Hall Plaza.
Kadiwa ng Pangulo (KnP) is one of National Government’s answers to address the rising food prices due to inflation. KNP serves as a market linkage facilitation program that has removed the unnecessary layers in the trading cycle. Less middlemen adds to the selling value of the products with consumers benefitting from freshly harvested crops and other food items at fair cost. It also capacitates the food growers to be agri-preneurs. Lastly, it gives farmers, fisherfolk, and MSMEs a rent-free venue to sell their produce and increase their income.
