Abstract

This study aimed to obtain data regarding the management practices of One-Town-One-Product entrepreneurs in Camarines Norte. The study used the descriptive-correlational method and survey questionnaire in data gathering with 70 respondents. Frequency distribution, percentage ranking, weighted mean, and Somer’s d were utilized. The findings are as follows: 1) Most respondents were 25 to 34 and 45 to 54 years old, female, married, college graduates, attended one to three seminars/trainings, and have one to three organization memberships; 2) OTOP entrepreneurs implemented management practices; 3) There is no significant relationship between age profile of respondents and management practices along planning, directing, and controlling, but has a weak negative relationship in organizing practices. There is also no significant relationship between sex and civil status profile and the variables. Educational attainment has a moderate positive relationship with planning, organizing, and controlling but has a weak positive relationship with directing. The number of business-related seminars attended has a weak positive relationship with planning, organizing, and controlling but has a moderate positive relationship with directing. The number of memberships to organizations has no significant relationship with planning, directing, and controlling but has a strong positive relationship with organizing; 4) The problem encountered was the price increase of raw materials; and 5) The proposed business model was designed to improve the management practices of OTOP entrepreneurs in Camarines Norte.
