Growth is more than expanding a business—it’s about gaining confidence, strengthening leadership and creating opportunities that benefit the entire community.

Through the DTI Kapatid Mentor ME (KMME) Program, Mrs. Vicky Ulap, President of the Tilapia Growers Association gained valuable knowledge in financial planning, marketing strategies and leadership. These learnings have strengthened her confidence and equipped her with insights she can apply in supporting the growth and development of their association.

Inspired by the program, Mrs. Ulap sees greater opportunities to expand their tilapia production and processing business, strengthen teamwork among association members and create more sustainable livelihood opportunities for their community.

With the right knowledge, mentorship, and belief in oneself, the journey toward a stronger association and a brighter future for its members continues!

Every successful business begins with a willingness to learn, adapt, and grow. For Ms. Agnes P. Atriginio, General Manager of Tejido En Telar Souvenir Shop, the DTI Kapatid Mentor ME (KMME) Program became a stepping stone toward building a stronger business while championing Ilocos Sur’s rich weaving heritage.

Through KMME, Ms. Atriginio gained valuable insights into pricing strategies, customer relationships, and product value. By putting these lessons into practice, she learned to go beyond selling products and tell the stories that make them truly special.

Today, Tejido En Telar showcases Ilocano craftsmanship through abel-inspired bags, mugs, tumblers and T-shirts with abel patches—bringing traditional weaving into everyday life while highlighting the history, cultural significance, and artistry behind each creation.

Her journey demonstrates how mentorship and continuous learning can help entrepreneurs transform business practices, create greater value and turn cultural heritage into a meaningful market advantage.

💙 Celebrate local craftsmanship and be part of this success story! Discover Tejido En Telar’s abel-inspired creations, support local MSMEs, and bring home a piece of Ilocos Sur’s weaving heritage.
