Dear eFOI user, 
Mabuhay!
Thank you for utilizing the eFOI portal (www.foi.gov.ph) and exercising your right to information under Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016 on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
We have received your request on THE NUMBER OF REGISTERED SMALL BUSINESS IN THE BRGY TABUN AND BRGY DAPDAP MABALACAT CITY., dated yesterday. 
While our primary objective is to provide information whenever possible, we regret to inform you that the requested information is not available at this Office. Please be informed that "registered business" is different from "registered Business Name".  All we can provide is the number of registered Business Names for sole proprietorship.
Also, DTI Business Name registration is not a permit or license to engage in any type of business since the permit to operate is issued by the Business Permit and Licensing Office of the concerned LGU.
Thus, if you are looking for the actual number and details of operating businesses, you may inquire with the Business Permit and Licensing Office (BPLO) of the concerned LGU since they are the ones who issue a business permit to operate.
