PLDT SME Nation brings connectivity to Palawan

MANILA, Philippines – PLDT SME Nation continues its nationwide innovation invasion as it recently introduced its business solutions platform in the province of Palawan.

Known for its successful tourism industry — its resorts are some of the best in the whole world — Palawan recently served as the launch avenue for PLDT SME Nation’s creatively ingenious business solutions specifically designed to address the operations and marketing requirements of small and medium enterprises.

“We feel fortunate that PLDT SME Nation chose Palawan as the venue for its launch in the Mimaropa (Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan) region,” says Pacifico Lumauag Jr. of the Palawan Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. (PCCI).

PLDT SME Nation-PCCI connection

The event, held at the ballroom of the Hotel Asturias in Puerto Princesa City, was attended by the who’s who in the city’s thriving SME landscape.

PLDT SME community consultancy head Gabby Cui says, “PCCI is a very viable partner. It shares not only our core values as an organization but also our vision for the Pinoy SMEs.”

Established in 1994, the PCCI, much like its newest partner, provides its members with opportunities on how to grow their respective businesses via acquiring relevant skills and technology.

“PCCI welcomes this tie-up very much. Think about it, in terms of geography, there are still areas in the province of Palawan that are not readily accessible, and only a good communication system can address that. PLDT, we believe, can address that. Also, some of our SMEs lack expertise in IT. Our SMEs hope that with PLDT’s know-how in turning technology into profit, exciting times await us,” says Lumauag.

Equipping Palawan SMEs

PLDT SME Nation showcased its vast array of business solutions and its state-of-the-art information communication technology (ICT) that were fine-tuned to meet any SME’s needs.

From its aptly named monitoring equipment Watcher to its reasonably priced promotional packages, PLDT SME Nation makes it easy for Palawan-based SMEs to be highly competitive.

“We believe that PLDT SME Nation will be a key conduit in making significant improvements in our SMEs,” says Lumauag.
