The Ambulant Vendor
"You don't have to go to the market; the market comes to you."
Dr Abe V Rotor
A culture of old in the community,
from farm-to-market, to farm-to-home;
delivered practically at your doorstep;
spurred by the pandemic's stay-at-home.
Less middlemen, less changing hands,
value-added favors the grassroots;
goods fresher, shelf life longer
sans additives, costly packaging.
Suki system keeps friendship and trust,
confidence in quality and cost;
Take the backseat malls, supermarkets,
it's e-market Filipino style.
Tessie Tabangcura, suki of the author's family.
San Vicente, Ilocos Sur
Fruits, vegetables, meat, seafood, others;
Your suki has it, or will find it for you.
More and more markets-on-wheels and delivery-on-the-doorsteps have
made marketing convenient especially during the pandemic period.
They are the link of farm to home, enhancing freshness of products and
eliminating expendable middlemen. ~
