Pursuing Equity for Farmers
Local farmers are able to generate higher income through “Palay Trading” which involves direct marketing between farmer and consumer outlets. This service addresses the urgent need of providing agricultural support to our local farmers. -
Ensuring Financial Stability in Fishing
Fisherfolks can establish their businesses through Sindangan FACOMA’s “Agricultural Loan” to finance their fishing activities. With the abundance of fish in local coastal areas, we intend to help fisherfolks maintain the credibility of Sindangan’s acclaimed title, the “fishing capital of Zamboanga del Norte.” -
Striking Gold in Cacao
The evident contribution of cacao production to economic development has given farmers another window of opportunity to earn more income. To assist local farmers in their pursuit of profit, “Cacao Trading” creates marketing linkage and ensures a strategic and competitive price for the product. -
Maintaining Financial Integrity
Sindangan FACOMA upholds transparency in handling the finances of the organization to establish mutual trust between its members. This principle has encouraged members to utilize our “Savings and Time Deposit” that has become a secure financial reserve for loans and inventories. -
Providing Quality Healthcare
In the interest of expanding its services outside the sphere of agri-business, Sindangan FACOMA has recently set up a “High Precision Clinical Laboratory and Testing Center” that offers healthcare services at a reasonable price. The cooperative believes that the health of the local residents is critical to the development and growth of the entire community.

TESTIMONIALS
Sindangan FACOMA has helped me finance the education of my children. It is my greatest desire that this cooperative becomes even more successful in their future undertakings, so they can help other people in need. I hope FACOMA continues to preserve their valuable work for our community.
I chose to set up my savings account in Sindangan FACOMA because of the smooth and accessible transactions they provide. No matter what financial problems I have encountered in the past, the hassle-free process of loans that the cooperative offers has been a reliable source of funds for me. I am hopeful that this cooperative will prosper so they can help more underprivileged people like us.
As the cooperative offers us members easy access to loans, this has greatly contributed to the success of my family’s farming business and other personal projects. I am optimistic that Sindangan FACOMA will continue to expand their microfinance and help more clients in their businesses. The cooperative’s progressive success can also assist more farmers, fisherfolks, and those in urgent need, thus I encourage our local residents to support our cooperative for everyone’s benefit.
I have been a member of Sindangan FACOMA for almost 15 years. The loans I acquired from the cooperative have greatly helped my family in our farming business. I look forward to the success of the cooperative during the years to come so they can help more farmers like me. The staff and employees I encountered were always welcoming and polite whenever I visited their office. Today, I have three children who finished college, and I have the cooperative to thank, for they have played a crucial part in funding the education of my children.
