Abstract

This community service activity aims to enhance the capacity of human resources (HR) among culinary business actors in the Parigi, Pondok Aren area, while at the same time introducing the concept of culinary-based tourism innovation to strengthen business competitiveness. The program includes training in business management, culinary product innovation, digital marketing, as well as strategies for collaboration with nearby tourist destinations. The implementation methods consist of lectures, workshops, case studies, and direct mentoring. The results of the activity show an increase in participants’ understanding of business management (a 65% improvement in post-test results) as well as their ability to develop digital-based promotional strategies. This activity concludes that strengthening human resources and utilizing tourism innovation can be key to improving the competitiveness of culinary MSMEs. Follow-up is needed in the form of advanced training and the establishment of networks among business actors to ensure sustainable impact.
