What started out as a conversation among a group of friends on how they can help local SMEs in their home province, East New Britain, gain positive exposure for the products and services they have on offer will be carried through with the hosting of the first ENB Artisans Market. Organizing team member, Damaris Lee said with the hosting of the markets, they hope to provide more exposure for small businesses in the province especially with the current effects of COVID-19 on the country’s economy. Lee added that a free workshop will be hosted this Saturday ahead of the first event to assist vendors with ways they can best sell their products and services, and to also help out with pricing. The ENB Artisans Market will be held on June 26 at the Tammur Centre in Kokopo. You can reach out to the organizing team via their Facebook page, ENB Artisans Market for registrations which will close on June 19.
