MARIVELES, Bataan—An investor involved in making bags for computers and cameras has invested P86 million at the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB) here. | |||
The Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan (Afab) recently announced that DeskTop Bags Philippines Inc.—a partner of the Luenthai International Group Ltd. (Luen Thai)—signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA), registration agreement and contract of lease with Afab to manufacture computer bags, trolleys, CD bags, camera bags and other accessories. | |||
Afab Chairman and Administrator Deogracias G.P. Custodio said that DeskTop will generate around 600 job opportunities. | |||
“At full capacity, DeskTop will employ around 2,000 workers,” he added. | |||
DeskTop is the first business set to locate in the FAB under the existing partnership between the Afab and Luen Thai. Under the MOA with Luen Thai signed in August 2011, Luen Thai also plans to locate some of its production and manufacturing businesses, including a textile mill operation, at the FAB. | |||
Custodio said there are clamors for Luen Thai to branch into other business ventures at the FAB, such as the establishment of a hotel and restaurant facility but it has maintained its focus on expanding its core businesses related to the production of high-quality items. | |||
Second District Rep. Abet Garcia said he had worked for the creation of the law creating Afab in 2009 to push for progress not just in the FAB but in the entire province. | |||
