MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Agriculture said on Thursday that it was looking to start franchising Kadiwa Centers to the private sector and cooperatives for the remainder of the Marcos administration to give the public more access to affordable commodities.To date, there are 230 Kadiwa sites that have been put up nationwide. Of this number, 17 are under regular operation, which the DA hopes to increase every month with the agency also standardizing their operating days and hours.
''We will also do Kadiwa franchising. We will allow private sector operators or cooperatives to use the Kadiwa name in selected sites as long as they abide by the rules and guidelines or policies of DA. More importantly, for them to sell in Kadiwa at the right price,' he added.The move is a follow-up to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s order in his last State of the Nation Address to make all Kadiwa stores permanent.
