“We at Duty Free are proud to be of service to Pinoy MSME’s which we believe will ultimately help our country in the long run. We are excited to support and see how this initiative and thrust of the DOT Secretary Bernadette Romulo-Puyat will grow in the coming years.” COO Angala echoed.
Have a taste of these proudly Pinoy-made sweets at DFP’s Fiestamall and major airport departure stores in NAIA Terminals 1, 2, 3 and in the newly opened Luxe Duty Free near Mall of Asia in Pasay. Aside from the airports in Manila, these chocolates can also be found in Mactan, Clark, and Kalibo airports.
DFP will be further expanding Go Lokal by adding more proudly Pinoy-made products that will surely remind not only our Balikbayans and OFWs but also foreign travelers with unique flavors the Philippines has to offer.
