Balut loaded and ready to go

I have invested in this business with my friends brother. There is a huge market in this country for the duckling eggs. Especially in provinces where supplies are thin. Cebu is one of the islands with several little small towns that don't have the commerce do have everything Manila or even Cebu City would have. Our day started with a trip to the pier to pick the lastest shipment of Balut, which would last approximately 3 days then it would be time to get more. The eggs are shipped from Manila by ship and then transported by a small truck or Jeepney. It is sold on the streets by vendors who pick up theirt supply from my partner.
