Pertamina expands UMKM support in Central Sulawesi via Rumah BUMN program

Pertamina, through its Rumah BUMN initiative, brought 13 locally‑selected micro, small and medium enterprises (UMKM) to a bazaar held during the Provincial Family Planning (PKB) and Field Officer (PLKB) jamboree in Labuan village, Ratolindo district, Tojo Una‑Una, Central Sulawesi.

The program offers continuous mentoring, market‑access opportunities and encourages digital payments via QRIS, aiming to raise product quality, expand marketing networks and adapt to the digital economy. Vice President of Corporate Communication Muhammad Baron said the effort reflects Pertamina’s commitment to make UMKM more independent, competitive and sustainable.

Local participants, including coffee producer Imran Mulyadi, praised the support for promotion, packaging and capacity building, while PKK leader Hajar Lawidu highlighted the positive impact on regional economic growth and community welfare.
