Arsenio and Yolanda Guieb, a Pangasinan couple who struggled through vending, changed their life with hard work, persistence and a dose of business savvy. Both only high school graduates, they have established the most successful tinapa (smoked fish) business amid a thriving industry in Barangay Carmen West here. The Guiebs started as vendors of anything one could possibly imagine— balut (boiled duck eggs), pastillas (milk candies), sugarcane, rice cake, chicken and pork, even television sets and motorcycles.
