Myrna Valdez, Events and Program Chair of
the Date 2008, said Tuesday that the exhibit would jumpstart awareness
for export and trade.
She said this is one of the side-events that make this year's Date different from the past years.

services.
It also provides opportunities to industries to be matched with other sectors.
This year, Valdez revealed that there would be special areas for
organic products where ten companies from the Davao Region will be
participating.
"Aside from this, there will also be areas for the different LGUs,
not only from Davao Region, but also from the neighboring Davao
provinces to showcase their products," Valdez said. (JGRS)
