SM Supermalls has launched the SM Sunday Market, which aims to assure the sustainability of farmers’ socioeconomic development by setting up booths in malls open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Aside from SMFI Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan (KSK) farmers, participants are drawn from other government agencies such as the Departments of Trade and Industry (DTI) and Agriculture (DA). Farmers get institutional selling expertise through this activity by presenting homegrown products such as fresh produce/harvests, associated products (e.g., vegetables, fruits, eggs, rice, local specialties, and processed food), as well as ornamentals and plants.
EMVT (Emma V. Tolentino) Farm, Mary Jane Fresh Veggies, Janette Vegetable Stand, Gina’s Gulayan, and Norma’s Farm Fresh are the KSK players in SM City Tarlac, whereas Tarlac Henyo Entreprenuers Marketing (THEM) Cooperative is under DTI.
