It has been Association of Filipino
Franchisers Inc. (AFFI Empowering EntrepreneursTM) aspiration to see
more OFWs returning in the Philippines because they have established a good
business that will help them to earn a decent living for their family. Last
March 10, The DOLE-National Reintegration Center led by
Director Chona Mantilla had sealed the partnership with AFFI to bring
realization of encouraging OFWs to go into business and stay in our country.
Aside from providing business
opportunities, NRCO and AFFI, will also collaborate in Employment opportunities
for repatriated OFWs, Identification and sourcing out possible supplies from
the provinces of OFWs to be offered to business network of AFFI and lastly,
endorsement of legit business brands through the membership screening.
AFFI and NRCO will be hosting
regional entrepreneurship caravans to showcase different opportunities. Initial
caravans are set on May 15 to 17 in Region 2 and on July in Region 3. Starting
first week of June, AFFI members’ information will be distributed to all
Philippine Embassies worldwide to make sure that all OFWs will be informed of
the available business opportunities.
