President Aquino promotes Romblon’s marble products to business groups in U.S. May 8, 2015
President Benigno S. Aquino III has encouraged business companies in
the United States to look into potential business opportunities in
Romblon province’s marble industry.
In his roundtable meeting with chief executive officers and senior officials of various multinational companies at TransUnion headquarters here on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila), President Aquino made a pitch for Romblon’s high-quality marble to be exported to other countries.
“President Aquino cited his recent experience in seeing high-quality marble products in Romblon that need to be transported to international markets,” Communication Secretary Herminio Coloma, Jr. said following the discussion.
Federal Express (FedEx) managing director for legal, trade and international affairs, Ralph Carter, expressed his company’s willingness to assist in transporting and promoting such products.
FedEx is an international shipping company that caters to heavy shipments.
When visiting Romblon last January, President Aquino saw different marble sculptures from local craftsmen.
He said he was impressed with the unique designs and ideas of local sculptors, whose works unfortunately lack promotion.
President Aquino’s pitch was part of efforts to revive Romblon’s marble industry, which has been greatly affected by the increasing use of synthetic tiles and ceramic products.
