Parañaque eyes largest Kadiwa market
Parañaque City is planning to construct the largest Kadiwa Market in the Philippines, named the Baclaran Gateway Market, to provide a permanent and organized space for approximately 2,000 to 3,000 vendors currently operating on sidewalks.
The proposed 10,000 square-meter market will be situated adjacent to the LRT-1 Redemptorist-Aseana Station.
Mayor Edwin Olivarez emphasized the project's aim to provide order without removing the livelihood of thousands who depend on vending.
This initiative is an expansion of existing Kadiwa programs that aim to make basic goods, especially produce from the provinces, more accessible to all 16 barangays in Parañaque.
The Baclaran Gateway Market is anticipated to contribute to stabilizing prices and ensuring food security throughout the city.
