Let me welcome you to the website of
the National Onion Growers Cooperative Marketing Association (NOGROCOMA)
as we embark on a challenging program of retooling the onion industry
to ensure its sustainability.
It
is exciting to do business in a globalized atmosphere. It
is a totally different ball game.
Dubbed “Buhayin
ang Industriya ng Sibuyas” (BINS) we are doing
activities like research on production protocol that will lower
production cost, look for new markets especially export
market to continue what we have been doing from 1977 – 1998,
among other activities.
We
are ensuring that we produce a high quality product that will sell
through the internet.
Branding is
another item on the agenda as we do our market survey.
The focus
group discussion to discuss the entire gamut of problems
facing the industry with the purpose of solving them one by one.
For
example, the need for good seeds, insurance, maximum
residue levels are now being addressed.
We
hope you will help us by eating more onions, giving suggestions
that you think can help us and praying that with God’s guidance
we will be able to revive the onion industry.
On
behalf of our onion farmers who have been in the business for the
past 5 decades, we look forward with eagerness in meeting this
challenge.
Yours
in cooperativism,
DULCE
