ORGANIZERS of the 38th Negros Trade Fair this year hope to meet the P48 million in sales that were generated in 2023, as it offers an array of home-grown products from Negros Island.

The 38th Negros Trade Fair was launched at a media briefing and lunch on Thursday at Grace Park. Restaurant in Makati. Among the products that will sold at the trade fair are food and fashion items. NTF chair Mike Claparols says organizers hope to meet P48 million in sales this year.

Round trip airfare between Bacolod and Manila, for example, is priced at least P3,300 , with just a 10-kilo checked-in bag. Prepaid baggage rates also cost from P300 to P1,100 for 20 kilos to 45 kilos, exclusive of value-added tax. Cargo rates carry special rates depending on the type of product to be shipped, volume, and declared value.

Participants of the NTF, he said, are thus “deeply committed to sustainability. This commitment is not only about preserving the island’s natural resources but also about nurturing the traditional practices that define our identity. By prioritizing sustainable products and engaging in outreach programs, we aim to build and rebuild a future that honors both our environment and our heritage.”
