Program Title: Sustainable Logistic Development Program (SLDP) Financing of Cold Chain Projects in the Fishing Industry
Program Description: DBP’s Sustainable Logistics Development Program (SLDP) aims to develop the logistics cold chain for efficient distribution perishable food items. More particularly, special focus is given to the fishing industry inasmuch as the sector is a source of livelihood for many marginalized Filipinos with fish as a source of cheap food and protein for nutrition. This component focuses on the reduction of wastage and spoilage of fish, and maintaining their shell life and quality through a connected refrigerated chain from producers to consumers.
