LINGAYEN –Things are looking up for the fifteen Pangasinan exporters who are busy preparing for their participation in the US Diversity Business Exposition on October 3-4 in California, USA.

This early, their export products are already featured on the website of the California-based Pangasinan-USA Brotherhood Association (PUBA) to give prospective importers a preview of what to expect from Pangasinan participants.
