BAGUIO City Mayor Benjamin Magalong announced the pilot run of the Baguio City Rolling Market Caravan set on April 3, 2020 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Magalong said venues of the inaugural run will be at the covered courts in Irisan, Bayan Park Aurora Hill, Loakan, and Pacdal.
The City Government has coordinated these rolling markets to later serve all 20 districts plus an additional allotted for Irisan.
The project is coordinated by the Baguio City Government through the Liga ng mga Barangay and the Special Services Division of the City Mayor's Office in partnership with the Department of Trade and Industry, Department of Agriculture and the Baguio - Benguet retailers and farmers group.
