Lauhala Products made in Bulusan, Philippines







Karagumoy handicrafts  from the Philippines are labeled as lauhala products in the international market. Mostly shipped to the US, Sorsogon has a major chunk in its export according to published export records from the Bureau of Exports. A company exporter based in Sorsogon has a long time history of exporting bacbac, karagumoy and buri products. Designs are patterned according to the preference of the buyers overseas. The above souvenir crafts (photos), however, are made in Bulusan for Manila bazaars.
