Concepcion is an unspolied island paradise now open for investments in eco-tourism and resource-based industries. At preset, about 98% of the island is agricultural, with most areas planted with coconuts, the town's principal product. Coconuts are harvested every quarter of the year, producing approximately one metric ton of copra per hectare. Aside from copra, bananas and other fruits are sold in the markets of neighboring islands and in the nearby province of Oriental Mindoro. Livestock raising - cattle, carabaos, hogs and goats - is a secondary source of income for the residents. Fishing is a year-round activity.
Concepcion's power needs are being served by the Municipal Electrification Systems, which source their supply limited and demand is low. A power barge, however, is ready to increase power supply to the area.
Potable water is being delivered directly to the household by the Municipality with a centralized water pump, although some residents have their own well and pump.
Communication sites are available. Public landlines are available through PLDT and Liberty Telephone stations in the town center. A cellphone is operational in the area because of a cellsite in the nearby Mindoro Oriental.
The Municipality is now accessible by water transportation. The only regular trip is going to Pinamalayan Oriental Mindoro being the nearest municipality. Motorcycle is the prevalent mode of transportation in the island. However, considering the terrain and the road condition, most of the riding public prefers the motorized banca as a safe and convenient transportation. All barangays, except Barangay Dalajican Poblado, are accessible by motorbancas.
