The first Tagpuan Rice Response Delivery Outlet in Sablayan Public Market in Occidental Mindoro opened today to make affordable NFA rice accessible to the consumers especially the marginalized sector. The province of Occidental Mindoro was put under the state of calamity after three consecutive cyclones (Henry, Inday and Josie) battered the country for the past two weeks.
The outlet will be opened daily to serve the rice requirements of the residents in the area meantime that accreditation and opening of additional outlets in other municipalities are on-going.
NFA Mamburao Provincial Manager Jhun Guinto and APM Joseph Candava graced the opening of the outlet.
The outlet is being operated by GRECON- Sablayan Chapter.
