The Department of Agriculture said it is planning to put Kadiwa retail stores in select Metro Manila wet and dry markets within the first quarter of 2023 in a bid to make affordable foods accessible to all Filipinos.
This was disclosed by Agriculture Assistant Secretary for Consumer Affairs and Spokesperson Kristine Y. Evangelista to the media, adding that such a move will “ensure food availability in the metro while also addressing the rising prices of agricultural commodities” in its local markets. Interested outlets and stores, according to the DA, may apply to become Kadiwa-accredited retailers by submitting a letter of intent to the AMAS Director or the DA Regional Field Office – Agribusiness and Marketing Assistance Division Chief, as well as the store’s location and/or sketch plan.
The Kadiwa is a DA initiative designed to ensure the availability and affordability of food in high-demand areas and communities with low-income families.
