Kurt Maurice Tugaff, trade-industry development specialist, served as the resource speaker and discussed updates on the application process and assessment guidelines.
An open forum followed, where Chavez and Tugaff addressed questions from participants.
Attendees included representatives from supermarkets, convenience stores, hardware stores, and one service and repair shop, all aiming to earn the BAGWIS Seal of Excellence.
The activity is part of DTI Iloilo’s efforts to promote consumer protection and elevate service standards among local businesses.
