The third CSI Sari-Sari Store Fair will reel off on October 16-18 the CSI the City Mall in Lucao to be co-sponsored by the Department of Trade and Industry, National Food Authority and the Department of Labor and Employment and other government agencies.

Vice Mayor Belen Fernandez, chairman of the board of CSI Group of Companies, said the activity at CSI Stadia will be formally opened by Mayor Alipio Fernandez Jr. in the morning of October 16.

Top suppliers of merchandize who will sell goods to sari-sari store owners and buyers at discount prices are participating.

Fernandez expects more sari-sari store owners and prospective entrepreneurs in Pangasinan and the Ilocos Region to join the fair this year where “negosyo” sessions will be held presided by business experts.

Promising the popular fair to be bigger than past fairs, she said there will also be more shows, cooking demos, business promos, raffles and prizes for lucky shoppers and winners.
