ZAMBOANGA CITY – Mayor Beng Climaco has urged local entrepreneurs to participate in two Zamboanga Hermosa Festival activities that seek to involve residents in the promotion of Zamboanga City as an emerging investment powerhouse and as a prime destination as well for gastronomic adventures.
Dubbed as the Zamboanga Grand Midnight Sale, Climaco said it is open to any micro, small, medium and large enterprises that wish to sell or market their products. She said the midnight sale will run from October 1-10 with participating street stores and stalls along Mayor Climaco Avenue and will be opened to the public from 7 p.m. to midnight.
Climaco said participating concessionaires shall provide their own tables, chairs, and other materials needed for their product or merchandise display. They are likewise expected to provide trash bins to ensure cleanliness in their area and will be required to clean their garbage before leaving. Those found violating will not be allowed to continue selling, she said.
Participants may sell any product except for prohibited items. The vending of ready-to-eat food projects or those that require smokeless reheating is permissible, however, no grilling or cooking is allowed.
From October 2-9 beginning at 5 p.m., the midnight sale will be held at R.T. Lim Boulevard, but Climaco said sale of liquor and spirited beverages and prohibited items will not be allowed. She said no fees of any form shall be collected from the concessionaires participating in both events.
Climaco said those interested may get entry forms from the Permits and Licenses Division at City Hall or may call telephone number 991-2565 for inquiries. (Claudine Uniana)
