In its workshop proper, representatives from Naga Market Stallholders Federation (NAMASFED), Naga City People’s Mall Credit Cooperative (NACIPEMCO), Market Enterprise and Promotions Office (MEPO) and Naga City People’s Mall (NCPM) sectoral leaders assessed and looked back on their current realities through SWOT analysis. Moreover, this process paved the way to revisit their current mission and vision statements where the group agreed to add in salient pillars in alignment to the city government’s thrust and in consonance to the digital era. During the workshop’s concluding day, participants successfully completed a strategic plan from their identified programs, projects and activities for 2024-2028.
