Franchising and Financing Forum for MSME Sustainable Growth

BOF participated in the 2025 Central Luzon Franchising and Financing Forum for MSME Sustainable Growth held last June 9, Monday at SM City Pampanga. Organized by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), the forum gathered partners from various industries to offer valuable insights and franchise opportunities. Grace D. Castro, Vice President of the Lending Group, served as one of the keynote speakers at the said event.

With the aim of promoting currency integrity, BOF also brought the PalitPESO project to exchange unfit and damaged bills and coins. As the first in Central Luzon to offer a Currency Exchange Center, BOF ensures that only clean, fit currency remains in circulation.

The forum aligns with BOF’s mission to empower MSMEs in Central Luzon by providing access to practical knowledge and financial tools. Through initiatives like this, BOF strengthens its commitment to the growth of local businesses and innovation.
