Dear Ricardo,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Nov 18, 2022 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for List of Banana Processors in the Philippines.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested.

You might also consider reached out with the Department of Trade and Industry because if the agri products was already put into value-adding (banana ketchup and the likes), the data might be under their office. Our office is more on production support through the institution of mechanisms that ensure the availability and utilization of quality planting materials, consistent with the principles of good production methods. Once it is already processed, it will now go to DTI
