A ceremony was held at Adelup where Gov. Lourdes A. Leon Guerrero said the small business program creates job opportunities and fosters economic growth.
Ranging from mobile automotive repair to agriculture and digital services to apparel, the funding provided will purchase much needed equipment and hardware to expand their businesses. mbj
