THE Iloilo City Government’s Business One Stop Shop (Boss) for permit renewals will be available in four malls from January 3 to 31, 2022.

These are Festive Mall at Megaworld Iloilo Business Park, SM City in Mandurriao district, and Robinsons Main and Marymart Mall in City Proper.

Mayor Jerry Treñas stressed the same initiative established last January brings services closer to clients in a convenient setting.

He thanked mall partners for providing spaces for Boss.

Velma Jane Lao, head of the Local Economic Development and Investment Promotions Office (LEIPO), said they are expecting more than 13,000 businesses to renew their permits in 2022.

The mayor added that City Hall is also preparing for the opening of off-site payment stalls at Festive Walk near Iloilo Museum of Contemporary Art at Megaworld and SM City in Mandurriao, and Atrium Mall and Marymart in City Proper.

Targeted to be operational by February 2022, these Bayad Centers will operate the whole year round for the convenience of the public.

The Business Permit and Licensing Division issued some 6,000 renewals at malls last January while some 7,000 renewals were issued at City Hall. (PR)
