The continued growth of businesses launched under the Office of the Vice President’s (OVP) Mag Negosyo Ta ‘Day (MTD) Program marks a major milestone in the government’s efforts to empower Filipinos through sustainable livelihood support.
In Mandaluyong City, women-led members of the Solid Consumer Cooperative expanded their operations in producing liquid detergent, fabric conditioner, and other cleaning products after receiving a Php150,000 livelihood grant from the program.
From Legazpi City, Albay, artisan and MTD grantee Rafael Orbase brought his accessories made from beach stones, wood, and recycled glass bottles to international markets, while wood carving shops run by grantees in Banaue, Ifugao gained global recognition for their world-class craftsmanship.
In Pangasinan, junkshop owner Queenie strengthened her daily livelihood after acquiring her own sidecar through the program, contributing to the OVP’s record of supporting 35 organizations and more than 3,000 individuals as of November last year, with expectations of assisting even more MSMEs in 2026.
Across Visayas, the OVP has sustained its support for over three years, including assistance to the United PWD Association for Rehabilitation and Development, Inc. (UPWARD), which used its Php150,000 grant to operate a rice retail shop and promoted the message that disability is not a barrier to dignified work.
Also in the region, Antique-based farmer Lenon expanded his lettuce farm now supplying Boracay with an estimated monthly income of Php40,000, while beneficiaries from Cebu City and Eastern Visayas increased production capacity and product variety through additional capital support.
In Mindanao, the MTD Program, implemented through four satellite offices, helped the 3rd Battalion MILF Fishermen Cooperation in BARMM establish its own fishpond, expanded bakery and processed food businesses in Caraga, and supported organic product advocacy in Zamboanga City.
The success stories of MTD grantees from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao affirm that with proper government support—paired with discipline, perseverance, and hard work—economic progress and community resilience are within reach for Filipino entrepreneurs nationwide.

Patunay ng matagumpay na pagpapatupad ng programang Mag Negosyo Ta ‘Day (MTD) ng Office of the Vice President (OVP) ang patuloy na pag-unlad ng mga negosyong sinimulan ng mga benepisyaryo nito—isang mahalagang hakbang sa pagpapalakas ng kakayahan ng mga Pilipino sa pamamagitan ng sustenableng kabuhayan.
Sa Mandaluyong City, pinalawak ng mga kababaihang kasapi ng Solid Consumer Cooperative ang kanilang operasyon sa paggawa ng liquid detergent, fabric conditioner, at iba pang cleaning products matapos tumanggap ng Php150,000 na livelihood grant mula sa programa.
Mula naman sa Legazpi City, Albay, naitaguyod ng artisan at MTD grantee na si Rafael Orbase ang kanyang mga accessories na gawa sa batong-dagat, kahoy, at recycled glass bottles hanggang sa pandaigdigang pamilihan. Samantala, ang mga wood carving shop ng mga grantee sa Banaue, Ifugao ay nakamit ang pandaigdigang pagkilala dahil sa kanilang world-class na likhang-sining.
Sa Pangasinan, napalakas ni Queenie, isang junkshop owner, ang kanyang araw-araw na kabuhayan matapos makabili ng sariling sidecar sa tulong ng programa. Bahagi ito ng tala ng OVP na nakasuporta na sa 35 organisasyon at mahigit 3,000 indibidwal hanggang Nobyembre ng nakaraang taon, na inaasahang mas madaragdagan pa ang matutulungan na MSMEs sa 2026.
Sa Visayas, tatlong taon nang tuluy-tuloy ang suporta ng OVP, kabilang ang tulong sa United PWD Association for Rehabilitation and Development, Inc. (UPWARD) na gumamit ng Php150,000 na grant upang magpatakbo ng rice retail shop at isulong ang mensaheng ang kapansanan ay hindi hadlang sa marangal na hanapbuhay.
Sa rehiyon ding ito, pinalawak ng magsasakang si Lenon mula Antique ang kanyang lettuce farm na ngayon ay nagsusuplay na sa Boracay, na may tinatayang Php40,000 na buwanang kita. Samantala, ang mga benepisyaryo mula Cebu City at Eastern Visayas ay nagpalaki ng kapasidad sa produksyon at nagdagdag ng mga bagong produkto sa tulong ng karagdagang puhunan.
Sa Mindanao, ipinatupad ang MTD Program sa pamamagitan ng apat na satellite office, na tumulong sa 3rd Battalion MILF Fishermen Cooperation sa BARMM upang makapagtatag ng sariling fishpond, nagpalawak ng mga bakery at processed food businesses sa Caraga, at sumuporta sa adbokasiya para sa organic products sa Zamboanga City.
Pinagtitibay ng mga kuwentong tagumpay ng mga MTD grantee mula Luzon, Visayas, at Mindanao na sa tamang suporta ng pamahalaan—kaakibat ng disiplina, tiyaga, at sipag—abot-kamay ang pag-unlad ng ekonomiya at katatagan ng komunidad para sa mga Pilipinong negosyante sa buong bansa.
