Dear sir,
Greetings!
It is our desire to ingage in Coco Coir Business in our Barangay, since our main source of income is from Coconut product (copra).We have 40 hectares that had been planted with Coconut trees. We have plenty of waste Coconut husk which could only be burned during copra period, or even thrown it into the river during flooded rainy season,just to clear all waste Coconut husk from the area.The same thing done also to our neighbors who owned a big land in our area.
In this manner,We would like to ask from your office, a person who can give us more information and technical assistance for making feasibility studies on this matter.
Thank you for giving this matter with your preferential attention and hoping to receive your favorable reply.
Best regards,
