Sandugo Trade Fair 2013 Poster Design

Another design for another Sandugo Trade Expo this year sponsored by the Department of Trade and Industry. This year's theme is Go Green, Buy Local so I made a combination of products from Bohol and some from Region 7 (Bohol, Cebu, Negros Oriental and Siquijor) and form them into a leaf, a symbol for greener options. It is greener if you buy local products.

So this design will be seen all throughout Bohol during the annual Sandugo Festival.

My 8th study for the Sandugo Trade Expo was approved. I heaved a sigh.

Poster for DALAREICH TABLEYA at the IFEX 2013

In time for the International Food Exhibition (IFEX) Philippines, Dalareich Tableya asked me to design her promo materials as part of the requirements of her participation. Here I made a poster with a hint of emphasis on the Chocolate Hills, Bohol's leading icon, as a reminder that Dalareich Tableya came from Bohol.

This poster design was also used as her flyers during the said event.

IFEX is still ongoing until 19th May 2013 at the SMX Convention Center. Please support our local products. Visit and purchase Philippine-made products.

Banana Chips Packaging for a people's organization

Bohol has a lot of products made by non-government and people's organizations. The only problem they have is on the marketing side. Boholanos are not keen on excellent packaging with "pwede na" (this is enough) attitude.

With their exposures to a wider market, packaging has become a challenge. Thanks to the help of the Department of Trade and Industry in Bohol and some foreign funds, the organizations are now improving their products and their packaging.

This is for a BOHOL MADe, a group of cooperatives in Bohol that aims to produce wholesome and quality food products.

Poster design for the Sandugo Trade Expo

After several conceptualizations, we finally agree on the one with a symbol of the world with several protrusions and different products at the top of them. Since the theme is about greening business, we see this as a good start by the different micro-entrepreneurs to make their business ecologically-sound and therefore win the international markets.

The Sandugo Trade Expo 2011 will open on July 20, 2011 at the Island City Mall in Tagbilaran. The expo will feature products from Region 7 (Bohol, Cebu, Negros Oriental and Siquijor) including wovens and food. The show will end on July 24th.

Some products that will be on display there:

Reliving Memories: Designing for BNHS Batch T-Shirt Logo

The Bohol National High School Batch 1985 recently had their 25th Silver Reunion. What they wanted was a logo to be used in their t-shirts and other promo materials with a specific request that the old Bohol National High School school logo be used.

After several deliberations, we came up with an enhanced school logo and I added up a ribbon forming a half-circle to give emphasis on their silver jubilee celebrations. The 25 was superimposed along with their theme- Solid as ever, 25 years later.

The design was simple and struck a note of familiarity with the alumni.
