The local government of Quezon City through the Small Business and Cooperatives Development and Promotions Office (QC- SBCDPO) has launched the Proudly Original Products of Quezon City (POP-QC), which provides QCitizen entrepreneurs with an opportunity to promote their local products using social media, trade fairs, bazaars, and e-commerce.
Under the program, the business owners were assisted in expanding their market reach and creating a strong business community. It also aims to produce additional livelihoods for multiple sectors of society, including the city’s micro entrepreneurs, sewing communities, and the city’s Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDL).
