Santa Maria, also known as municipality of Santa Maria, is one of the 21 municipalities in
Bulacan. The municipality of Santa Maria lies 32 kilometers (20 mi) northeast of Manila and is
located at the eastern portion of Bulacan. Being one of a highly urbanized municipality, Santa Maria
is one of the richest municipality in Bulacan with an assets totaling of PHP 1 billion and revenues
In 2015, its population reached to 256, 454 which represents 7.8% of the province. Being
one of the municipalities in Bulacan with high population growth rate due to migration, establishment
of more commercial and trading activities take place as some people see this as an opportunity for
business.
Public market and private businesses are the major areas for the exchange of goods and
services. In Santa Maria, private businesses are being developed for better use, while the public
market, specifically the Santa Maria Public Market seems to have lack of development.
Santa Maria Public Market, located at Patria Honuria Perez, 7455 JP Rizal St,
Santa Maria, Bulacan, has a land area of 3,600 sq. meter, and was constructed last April 13, 1985. It
was the second Santa Maria Public Market in the history and served as a relocation site of the old
public market in Santa Maria. The very first Santa Maria Public
Market was located at C. De Guzman, Santa Maria, Bulacan which is 230 meters from the Santa

another problem that the buyers and vendors are facing is the transportation terminal. Santa Maria
Public Market is 280 m away from the secondary terminal, and 500 m away from the primary

Santa Maria Public Market was classified as a public market since it is owned and operated
by the city local government intended to extend the service to the general public on their daily needs.
Today, Santa Maria Public Market is in the stage wherein its physical condition is lacking of
development and not easily accessible because of its distance from the transportation terminal which

Chapter II
Public retail markets experienced a resurgence in the years around World War One. The United States
Department of Agriculture developed an Office of Public Markets in 1913 in order to aid local food
distribution. According to Donofrio, “all levels of government” supported public markets at this time.
In 1918, the U.S. Census Bureau undertook a study of municipal markets in all cities having a
population greater than 30,000 persons. This study found that half of the 240 cities surveyed
maintained a public market. According to Pyle, “The distribution [of markets] in 1918 indicates that
although the process of decline continued, the market remained as a source of fresh produce and in
hard times could be reinstituted. No generalizations can be made about the proportion of the total
The overall decline of public markets continued, and the 1940s and 1950s saw a decisive shift in food
sales patterns in the United States. Despite the evolution of the supermarket and a national (and
international) system of food distribution, a study by the United States Department of Agriculture in
1946 identified 401 retail and wholesale markets remaining in American cities, 291 of which sold
12
directly to consumers. At that time, just as World War Two was concluding, supermarkets were
responsible for only 28 percent of national total sales volume. However, just a few years later in 1954,
supermarkets’ share of total sales was up to 48 percent. The post-World War Two landscape of
suburbanization and the creation of the interstate highways only reinforced the ascendancy of the
supermarket.
Yet according to Mayo, many public markets remained profitable. However in many other cities,
including Boston, the public market had essentially failed by the mid-to-late 20th century.
According to Mayo, in addition to quality, safety, and environmental concerns, supermarket pricing
became an issue with consumers as well. Supermarkets frequently sought to maximize profits through
the use of variable pricing, loss-leader products, and other techniques. In Mayo’s words, “The quality
and pricing of food goods led consumers and retailers to support retail alternatives other than the
dominating supermarket.” And a prime alternative was the public market. Mayo again: “As the
ecology movement gained momentum in the United States, a few consumers became more concerned
about being economic, responsible shoppers as well as recapturing a sense of public life, and many
This renewed interest in public markets echoes Tangires’s notion of the “moral economy” of public
markets that protected product quality, fair exchange, and trust among buyers and sellers.
Throughout the 1970s, there were some significant efforts to revive the public market tradition
elsewhere in the United States. The resulting markets represent a mix of different contexts,
sponsorship entities, scales, and histories. Early in the decade, the renovation of Lancaster,
Pennsylvania’s Central Market was one of the earliest recipients of federal historic preservation
funds. In Vancouver, British Columbia, the peninsula known as Granville Island was transformed
from a derelict industrial area into thriving mixed-use area anchored by a newly created public
13
market. The Granville Island Public Market opened in 1979 and is one of the most popular
destinations in Vancouver for residents and visitors alike. Granville Island is regarded as one of the
After Seattle’s Pike Place Market escaped urban renewal and demolition through a public referendum,
the City responded to the public mandate for market preservation by creating the Pike Place Market
Preservation and Development Authority (PDA), a quasi-public corporation. The PDA oversaw
redevelopment of the historic market, and by 1990 all of the market buildings were renovated. Today,
Pike Place is likely the best-known public market in the United States. However, heavy tourist
visitation has impacted the market, with fewer local residents shopping there and the merchandise
mix tipping toward catering to the tourist trade. Pike Place is a full-fledged market district, comprising
a variety of indoor and outdoor vending spaces, along with a mix of other uses. The twenty-two acre
Pike Place district includes not only food vendors, but also a range of other uses including mixed-
income housing and social service providers. At this largest scale, a public market can be more than
variety of activities.
Other attempts to create new markets have not always been as successful. Several efforts to create a
new public market hall in San Francisco in the 1980s were commercial failures. However, San
Francisco ultimately did develop a public market of sorts with the renovation of the Ferry Building
in 2003. San Francisco’s historic ferry terminal was once the main point of arrival and departure in
the city, predating the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges. Cut off from the heart of the city by the
Embarcadero Freeway in the 1950s, the Ferry Building again became a waterfront focal point when
the freeway was removed following the Loma Prieta earthquake. The plaza in front of the building
has been home to a weekly farmers’ market since 1992. The building itself, owned by the Port of San
Francisco, was redeveloped under a ground lease in 2003 by a partnership between national developer
Equity Office and a local development company. The building houses 175,000 square feet of Class
14
A office space along with 65,000 square feet of retail focused on locally produced foods and local
restaurants.
The upscale shops and eateries in the Ferry Building complement the twice-weekly farmers’ market,
allowing the two venues combined to appeal to a broad range of customers. The farmers’ market is
operated independently by the non-profit Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture
(CUESA). The Ferry Building is an interesting case because of the involvement of a private, for-
profit developer.
Closer to Boston, Portland, Maine constructed a year-round market hall that opened in 1998.
Generous support from philanthropist Elizabeth Noyce’s Libra Foundation funded the market’s
construction as a catalyst for revitalization in downtown Portland, with public market expert Ted
Spitzer serving as market manager from the design through the operational stages. The 37,000 square
foot market featured soaring ceilings with timberframed trusses, and was home to a mix of more than
20 permanent vendors along with day stalls. The Portland Public Market was awarded a silver medal
from the Rudy Bruner Award for Urban Excellence in 1999 on the basis of its “financial competence,
its social values, its attractiveness as a shopping destination, and its contribution to downtown
revitalization.” However, vendor rents did not come close to covering the market’s operating costs,
and the market ran at a loss. In 2006, the Libra Foundation decided to liquidate all its Portland real
estate holdings. The market building was sold in August that year, and the award-winning Portland
Public Market was closed in January 2007. Several of the vendors from the Portland market
regrouped and reopened as The Public Market House in a downtown storefront adjacent to the
location of Portland’s original public market. The Public Market House, coupled with a seasonal

The tradition of public markets was brought to North America from Europe and spread across the
continent with European settlement (Morrow, Baun, & Spitzer, 1995). The first documented farmers’
market in America occurred in the seventeenth century (Sommer, 1980). These first markets were the
primary means of providing fresh produce, fish, dairy, meat and poultry to urban consumers. Public
markets were often the only place for food commerce within a city because of the control that they
afforded officials over conditions of trade (Morrow, Baun, & Spitzer, 1995). Early report and records
from London, Ontario suggest that the farmers’ market’s commercial importance was significant
enough that the city’s elite went to great lengths to control its location and operations (Gouglas,
1996). At that time, the market was the focal point of urban commerce, attracting people into the city
center.
According to Gale (1997) “One of the main reasons for proliferation of farmers’ markets is the
economic opportunities afforded to both producers and consumers. Small producers may not be able
to sell to conventional wholesalers because of insufficient volumes and stringent demands for product
consistency. Large farmers use direct selling as a sideline operation for additional revenue and a
market for product that does not meet wholesaler specifications.” Farmers’ markets provide
producers with an opportunity to retain valuable returns that would otherwise accrue to wholesalers,
distributors, and retailers who currently handle the bulk of the world’s food supply.
The ever-increasing corporate concentration of food distributors has led to control of the food supply
by a small but powerful group of companies. The control created by a large number of producers
dealing with an ever-shrinking number of buyers significantly increases bargaining power for buyers,
leading to an oligopoly market structure. There is often little ability for the producer to capture returns
associated with improved produce quality through conventional distribution. Sorting often occurs at
other levels of the supply chain and the sorter retains the returns from this process. The producer is
provided with no incentive to improve the quality of his or her product beyond the minimum
standards set by the buyer. By utilizing a farmers’ market, the producer performs all supply chain
16
functions, including storing, grading, marketing, and retailing. With that comes the revenue and costs
that would otherwise go to a long line of intermediaries (Feenstra & Lewis, 1999).
Those who live in the core of the city do not have easy access to fresh fruits and vegetables through
conventional supermarkets. These residents often have low incomes, making it difficult to access
food sources outside their own neighbourhoods. In some cities, farmers’ markets have developed to
serve these carefully disadvantaged groups by providing food preparation demonstrations, utilizing
innovative food stamp programs, and participating in food security programs. (Burns & Johnson,
2006).
According to Sanderson, Gertler, Martz, & Mahabir (2005), Farmers’ markets have existed for
several centuries in North America, at first playing a significant but then dilapidated role in giving
products to customers. However, over the last decades, consumers, producers and community groups
have shown a transformed interest in these markets as a way of bringing farmers and citizens together
for the direct sale of products. The past thirty years has seen a proliferation of farmers’ markets across
the continent as enthusiasm for this traditional form of commerce grows. This intent is to discover
the reasons for the recovery of farmers’ markets and inspect the purposes that such markets serve in
today’s time. The motivations of producers, consumers, and those responsible for initiating these
(2007), “Public markets are unique economic and social institutions which are increasingly being
viewed as gear to attained a wide variety of goals. These goals include improved access to quality
food, better marketing opportunities for family farmers, improving social interaction in urban
17
For public markets to provide the benefits discussed above, they should be economically sustainable,
and this often needs some form of external financial support. A principal issue in obtaining public
and other funding for public markets is whether the markets can validate that they deliver economic
benefits to the community. The goal of this analysis is to examine only one of the potential benefits
Market characteristics: First, the market may be selling products that do not directly compete with
nearby retail venues, and second, shoppers in some communities might be inclined to go outside the
The tradition of public markets was brought to North America from Europe and scatter across the
continent with European settlement (Morrow, Baun, & Spitzer, 1995). The first documented farmers’
market in America occurred in the seventeenth century (Sommer, 1980). These first public markets
were the main means of providing fresh produce, dairy, meat, fish, and poultry to urban consumers.
“Public markets were often the only place for food commerce within a city because of the control
that they afforded officials over conditions of trade” (Morrow, Baun, & Spitzer, 1995).
By contrast, in large city markets, virtually all of the purchases from producers flow outside the local
economy. The outflow of funds from local economies from producers, are however, relatively small
because, producers generally are much smaller in scale than other vendor types.” Public markets are
vital in human life. It creates business opportunities to the small traders and entrepreneurs starting
their businesses and this opportunity will take effect to the economic growth of the community.
Changes in the food system in turn affected the complexion of the public market, eventually leading
to its decline. As Pyle notes, “The pattern of declining importance of city produce markets followed,
with several notable exceptions, the improvement of transportation, the growth of cities, and the
specialization of agriculture.” The 19th century saw the rise of the wholesale system and increasing
18
specialization among sellers and producers as well. Farmers, fishermen, and stockmen were no longer
the primary vendors at America’s public markets. Technological advances, including the railroads,
canning, and refrigeration radically altered the distribution of food. A shift in American attitudes
toward private enterprise placed the public market in competition with both private market houses
and with butchers, grocers and other private retailers. Advances in technology and industry
revolutionized not only food marketing, but also business in general. The later part of the 19th and
the beginning of the 20th centuries saw huge changes in technology with major impacts on the
1820s, with a canning factory established in Boston by William Underwood in 1822. Canned food
would become increasingly popular as the century progressed. The development of refrigeration in
the late 19th century lengthened supply chains. At first limited to cooling with ice, by the 1890’s
Boston’s Quincy Market had a mechanical cooling system that used brine and ammonia as cooling
agents. Refrigeration combined with widespread railroad shipping to give rise to larger and larger
Armour and Swift, the mammoth Chicago meatpacking operations. By 1880, New Bedford,
Massachusetts was receiving beef shipped from Chicago’s stockyards instead of beef from Boston’s
Brighton yards.
In addition to transporting goods, the railroad sometimes took a more active role in the food marketing
Terminal Market in Philadelphia in 1892, absorbing the earlier Farmers’ Market and Franklin Market.
As Mayo states, “If, however, private enterprise could provide a better system for food retailing,
business people should not be deterred, because many local officials felt that government should not
compete with private enterprise.” Additionally, popular conceptions of the businessman changed as
well. According to Tangires, “The concept of the market house as a private business venture was new
19
and could not have existed without widespread faith in the hero of the mid-nineteenth century – the
‘businessman’.” The proliferation of private, independent grocers and butchers eroded public
markets’ role in feeding the city, and the later development of retail chains accelerated the public
market’s decline. Grocery stores posed a major challenge to the customer share of public markets,
and boasted several significant advantages. Grocery stores could operate out of almost any leased
storefront, whereas the centralized public market hall was a specialized facility. This gave grocers
greater locational mobility, and the ability to close up shop in unprofitable locations. Most
importantly, it allowed grocery stores to follow the population as it moved outward with urban growth
and eventually suburban development. Grocers were also free to change their product mix at will,
while public market operators were constrained by leases with their multiple vendors.
The rise of a national food distribution system, along with the sorts of unsavory practices described
by Upton Sinclair in his 1906 novel The Jungle, led to calls for federal regulation of food markets
and food safety. In an essay discussing the origins of federal food regulation, Alden Manchester
identifies several key constituencies that pushed for federal regulation. Farmers and farm groups
advocated regulation of the railroads and large food processors. Concerns about food safety led to
calls for regulation from consumers. Finally, the food industry itself, including the large meatpackers,
desired regulation in order to create a level playing field among market competitors and consistency
in regulation from state to state. The advent of federal food safety and marketing regulations
essentially rendered obsolete yet one more function of local public markets - that of regulating fair
Broader structural changes in the economy and the labor market would also act to reduce the role of
the public market in America’s food system. Mayo describes these changes as a shift from “local
mercantilism” to “national corporatism.” In his account, the rise of national corporations, including
chain grocery stores, served to undermine the local networks of middlemen and independent
businesses that thrived in the public market setting. Similarly, there was a corporatization of labor.
Small and local businesses, unable to compete with national chains, shuttered their own businesses
20
and went to work for larger firms. The shift to a food system dominated by national and regional
corporate enterprise ended the reign of the public market in American food retailing.
Urban revitalization in America and perhaps in other developing countries as well is defined as
construction of a highway, an office complex, a convention center or any public and private projects
costing billions of dollars in investment that claims to provide jobs for the citizens. However, for the
past years, the financial remuneration of these investments has produced unproductive jobs instead
and serious damage to the urban structure, which, in turn, directs to economic stagnation or worse,
Urban revitalization practitioners from all sectors and organizations are beginning to recognize that
public gathering places and public spaces that connect everything create limitless potential for urban
revitalization and economic development. One such place is public market where people of different
ethnic groups and income are gathered, inviting and safe public spaces are created, low- and
moderate-income neighborhoods and smallscale economic activity are strengthened, fresh and high-
quality products are provided for the town residents and open spaces and farms are preserved,
A public market is traditionally owned by the town or city’s municipality where vendors market fresh
food from open stalls. Some public markets today are owned and operated by different types of
organizations and sell a wide range of different products, including but not limited to farmers’
produce, crafts and antiques. Public markets have three distinguished characteristics: (1) possess
public goals including among many others affordable retailing opportunities to small-scale businesses
21
and farmland preservation in the region; (2) encompass an inviting, safe and lively public space in
(3) acquire locally owned, independent businesses for the local flavor of the market (Project for Public
Food safety concerns are a driving force behind the spread of the farmers’market phenomenon in the
European Union in the last decade (Holloway & Kneafsey, 2000). The growing number of strictly
organic farmers’ markets provides evidence of this. Organic farms are often small and the farmers
prefer the premiums associated with direct selling, while consumers of these products prefer to deal
directly with the producer so as to increase their confidence that the product is organic (Gale, 1997).
According to Zade (2009) “public markets were once central components of the urban food system
in American cities, but the decline in number and importance by the middle of the 20th century.
Despite a diminished role in feeding the city, public markets have perished, and interest abounds in
both existing markets and the development of new ones.” In addition to creating an alternative to the
mainstream commercial food system, public markets can generate a range of community benefits.
These includes small business opportunities, preservation and promotion of local foods and food
ways and social interactions among them. According to Ford Foundation (2003), Urban
revitalization, economic development, and progress were justified by billions of dollars in public and
private investments by the jobs that presumably go with them. The term public market has changed
in meaning over time and still differs from place to place. A public market has been defined as a
municipally owned building where vendors and sellers sell fresh food from open stalls. While some
public markets still match this definition, public markets now come in many shapes and settings, give
a wide range of different products and goods, and are owned and operated by different types of
22
organizations, not just city governments. At their most basic, markets include vendors or merchants
who meet at the same location on a regular basis under the aegis of a sponsoring entity that has legal
and financial responsibility to oversee operations and, sometimes, structures or facilities to house the
marketactivity. What distinguish public markets from other types of related retail activity are the
following three characteristics: public goals, location of the market, and made by locally owned and
independent business owners. In the nineteenth and early twentieth century, the farmers’ market
served as both a food source and focal point for interaction between urban and rural dwellers. “The
market,” Sean Gouglas (1996) wrote, “proved a social and economic arena, a center of urban and
A survey of New Jersey farmers’ market managers (Govindasamy, 1998) revealed: “In order to assign
the spaces available in the facility, different criteria were used. First come first served was the
prevalent method and most markets tended to honor seniority…. Some markets, however, assigned
spaces according to the size of the farmers’ operations or by lottery drawing”. With regard to
positioning vendors to meet specific market goals, the same study indicated that 58 percent of
managers did not take into consideration similarity of products when deciding whether to place
vendors side by side. Only one manager stated that farmers’ personalities were taken into account
when planning the market layout (Govindasamy, 1998). As described above, the awesome majorities
of Oregon farmers’ markets assign vendor spaces in advance and arrange vendors to meet specific
market goals.
The Project for Public Spaces has been a singular force in promoting the development of public
markets, based on their traditional role in urban food provisioning. Published in 1995, Public Markets
and Community Revitalization offers a model for developing a successful public market, making the
23
first extended claim for their relevance in modern cities (Spitzer and Baum 1995). It proposes, in
effect, to bring to life the otherwise abstract economic concept that anchors the rationalities of
neoliberal thought: ‘‘the market’’ as it advances human well-being. Appealing to an ideal of the
‘‘universal market experience’’ and the vision of a renewed sense of public life ‘‘alive with vitality
and commerce,’’ the public market embodies an authentic place of locally-based exchange, a
common ground ‘‘where people feel comfortable to mix, mingle and enjoy the serendipitous
pleasures of strolling, socializing... and shopping in a special environment’’ (Spitzer and Baum
1995,). To this end, the authors note the need for a wider, more inclusive concept of ‘‘public market’’
that moves beyond municipal ownership and operation to embrace entities of ‘‘different shapes and
settings’’: ‘‘many farmers’ markets, crafts markets, and even some flea markets’’ (Spitzer and Baum
1995). Three overarching (if tautologically assigned) determinants now define a market as ‘‘public’’:
(1) public goals that define the public purpose or benefit derived from the market activity (2) the
market’s location in (or creation of) a public space—defined as open, easily accessible, and
hospitable—and
(3) tenants comprised of locally owned and operated businesses (Spitzer and Baum
1995).
The reinvention of the public market as a sign of the ‘‘traditional marketplace’’ nonetheless masks
its reality as a commercial business enterprise (Zade 2009; also DeLind 2011). It locates the historic
origin of urban life and spontaneous social interaction in the ‘‘free market’’ of capitalist society (Goss
1996; Agnew 1979), serving the claim that ‘‘public markets can address social and economic
problems without the need for on-going subsidy.’’ The public market thus achieves ‘‘public sector
goals through the harnessing of private sector means’’ (Spitzer and Baum 1995). These goals include
promoting public health through increased access to healthy, local fresh food; linking rural and urban
economies for enhanced regional development; providing economic opportunity through small
24
business and entrepreneur incubation, especially for minorities, immigrants and women; and creating
active, diverse public spaces (Spitzer and Baum 1995; Project for Public Spaces, n.d.(a). In the
following sections we investigate how public market managers navigate these goals.
Marketplaces of various types—public markets, farmers’ markets, and the like—are at a crossroads;
in them purposes old and emergent, are rediscovered and realized. (Morales, 2011)
In the proliferating studies of alternative food networks, relatively little attention has been paid to the
modern revival of the public market. Scholars defer instead to farmers markets as ‘‘the most prevalent
and public institution within alternative agrifood systems,’’ one thus providing an ‘‘important
standpoint from which to examine the everyday discourses and practices that fulfill the movement’s
vision’’ (Alkon and McCullen 2011). What it means to be a ‘‘public institution’’ warrants greater
consideration, however. Although fewer in number, public markets arguably have harnessed more
formalized support on the part of foundations, non-governmental agencies, and municipal planning
authorities than farmers markets. The identification of farmers markets as ‘‘public institutions’’ also,
if indirectly, raises a question regarding the categorical relationship between ‘‘farmers markets’’ and
‘‘public markets.’’ The USDA, for example, does not distinguish between them ; Brown’s (2001)
influential discussion of market classification does, but she largely parses their material differences.
Thus, farmers markets are ‘‘generally considered to be recurrent markets at fixed locations where
farm products are sold by farmers themselves’’; public markets are ‘‘the various forms of retail food
markets that, while containing multiple vendors, possibly including some producers, do not enforce
The source of this confusion, we will suggest, is inherent in the political and economic systems of
thought underlying the modern reinvention of the public market, which subsume these different types
25
of markets into the category of ‘‘marketplace.’’ More immediately relevant is the legal history of the
infrastructure critical to the regulation of food and its equitable distribution to city residents.
Superintended by city authority, it was a mechanism of social as well as civic order (see Baics 2012;
Donofrio 2007; Goodwin 1929; Mayo 1991; Novak 1993; Rogers 1919; Steel 2013; Tangires 1997,
2003). More profoundly, their operations expressed the ideals of distributive justice and a public
economy in which commerce, trade, and economics were regarded as fundamentally public in nature,
‘‘created, shaped, and regulated by the polity via public law’’ (Novak 1993). The near disappearance
of public markets during the midtwentieth century, and their re-emergence in the late twentieth
century—more or less coincident with the national surge in farmers markets—should alert us to larger
structural transformations reshaping the role of state authority in the governance of food and urban
spaces.
In other words, the public market is an institution explicitly implicated in, and thus symptomatic of,
transforming regimes of food distribution and, by extension, discourses of food equity. We set its
reappearance in the context of neoliberal urban policy experiments ‘‘to mobilize city space as an
arena both for market-oriented economic growth and for elite consumption practices’’ (Brenner and
Signs of a ‘‘public market revival’’ were visible in the United States by the late 1980s, characterized
as part of the efforts to revitalize urban spaces by rebuilding urban food security (Burke 1978;
Deering and Ptucha 1987). In the twenty-first century, public markets have nominally joined farmers
markets as, simultaneously, ‘‘alternatives to the industrial food distribution system and as civic
institutions capable of generating a wide range of public benefits’’(Zade 2009). Urban planners, non-
governmental organizations, preservationists and others identify public markets as spurs for
community and economic development (Lum 2007; Morales 2009, 2011; Spitzer and Baum 1995;
26
Donofrio 2009) and, in the case of historic markets, anchors for a ‘‘long-held sense of identity and
As the recent experiences of Portland and San Francisco illustrate, public market development can
be both challenging and rewarding. Despite the difficulties associated with developing and operating
public markets, proponents continue to advance a wide range of arguments in favor of maintaining
and developing public markets. Concerns over food quality and environmental impact that brought
customers back to the public market in the 1960s and 70s are still potent forces, perhaps more so in
the wake of recent food safety scares. Another set of arguments in favor of public markets positions
them as important institutions in local food systems. As a response to the energy consumption and
environmental damage that stem from conventional agriculture and food distribution, many
commentators advocate a shift in emphasis to local foods, including chef Alice Waters, journalist
Public markets are important economic channels for local food producers and processors. Cornell
University Sociologist Gilbert Gillespie, along with several coauthors, identifies farmers’ markets —
that is to say public markets featuring direct sales between producer and consumer — as the keystone
to rebuilding local food systems.80 Direct sales do not necessarily have to be between farmer and
consumer: bakers, cheese makers, coffee roasters, and other food artisans can also benefit from direct
sales. Gillespie and his coauthors identify four ways in which direct sales between producer and

In addition to these economic benefits for merchants and food producers, public markets can serve
other purposes outside the realm of food sales. These other benefits are perhaps best articulated by
the Project for Public Spaces (PPS), a non-profit corporation “dedicated to helping people create and
sustain public spaces that build stronger communities.” The organization was founded in 1975, and
draws heavily on the ideas of William H. Whyte, a scholar of public spaces. Public markets are one
of PPS’s main project areas, and the organization serves as market planning and management
consultants to a wide range of clients. PPS authored the first study for a new Boston Public Market
in 1998, and in the autumn of 2008 prepared a study for the Boston Redevelopment Authority on
planning a new market district organized around the existing Haymarket pushcart vendors, with PPS
associate David O’Neil taking a major role in both studies. Along with the Urban Land Institute, PPS
co-published a handbook for public market development that counted Theodore Spitzer, Hillary
Baum, and David O’Neil among its authors. This handbook identifies three sets of benefits generated
by public markets: “stimulating economic opportunity”, “creating dynamic places”, and “instilling
In addition to the benefits of direct sales described by Gillespie et al., PPS identifies economic
benefits from public market operations that accrue to market vendors, to market customers, and to
the broader public. Vendors benefit from low barriers to entry, particularly the limited need for start-
up capital, which is especially important for minority and immigrant entrepreneurs who may lack
access to traditional business financing. Spitzer et al. describe public markets as an ideal setting for
micro-finance loan programs, through which small amounts can be lent to sta businesspeople without
Compared with conventional retailing, public markets give customers the benefit of internal
competition among different vendors selling similar products, leading to greater variety in pricing,
28
selection of goods, and customer service. Customers in areas underserved by conventional food stores
may also benefit from food access provided by public markets, including low-income neighborhoods,
downtown areas, and other urban locations. A recent MIT Master’s thesis by Jeffrey Schwartz found
that neighborhood public markets helped to provide food access to underserved neighborhoods in
New Orleans devastated by Hurricane Katrina, the food needs of which were inadequately met by
either mainstream food stores or government programs. Broader economic benefits of public markets
include job creation for market vendors, managers, and maintenance workers.
Another benefit is the catalytic effect public markets can have on their surrounding areas.
People attracted to public markets may also patronize neighboring businesses outside the market, and
additional business activity in and around the market can lead to increases in property values and thus
The second group of benefits from public markets described by Spitzer and his PPS colleagues fall
under the category of “instilling community spirit and cultural exchange.” Spitzer and his co-authors
“gather, make connections, discover their similarities, and appreciate their differences.” These human
interactions occur not only among customers, but also in the actual buying and selling itself.
Commerce in a multivendor public market features a much higher level of interaction between buyer
and seller. Compared to a supermarket shopper, a buyer at the public market may have to interact
with half a dozen or more vendors in order to make her or his purchases. Other market components,
such as street performers and musicians, may add additional layers of interaction to the market
environment. However, more recent forms of conventional retail, including both festival
Markets may also serve as a venue for social services, whether as a permanent part of the market or
as an occasional feature. Public health workers can set up booths for blood pressure or other health
screenings on selected market days. In some markets such as Detroit’s Eastern Market or Seattle’s
29
Pike Place, clinics or other public health facilities are a part of the market’s permanent program.
Spitzer also discusses the educational opportunities created by public markets. Public market
programs can include cooking demonstrations or talks by farmers and nutritionists, which provide
direct educational experiences. Informal education also happens as customers interact with vendors
and other shoppers to learn more about market products and their origins.
The third category of public market benefits described in Spitzer’s PPS handbook deals with the
market’s virtues as a public space. Both outdoor markets and spillover activity from indoor markets
help to activate the streets, sidewalks, and plazas in and around the market neighborhood. Spitzer and
his co-authors argue that active public spaces are both safer and more inviting, attracting additional
users and discouraging loitering, drug use, and other undesirable activity. The activity generated by
a public market can also help to set the stage for future development by introducing activity into

as one of Metro Manila’s most well-maintained public markets, Marikina Public Market offers a
clean and orderly shopping experience even if it’s right in the center of a busy city. And since the
entire city of Marikina has banned any use of plastics, the experience is also very eco-friendly. The
place offers fresh produce and meat at the wet market section while dry goods such as clothing, shoes,
and toys can be found in the dry market section. Marikina Public Market is a safe haven for the
people. There are uniformed market personnel roaming around advising people to take care of their

belongings. A market concierge is installed just at the center of the area for you to ask directions. A
police station is at the ground level of the main public market lest you have some concerns. But again,
always be mindful of your surroundings when you’re in a public place- a customer first tip. You can
also monitor basic commodity prices at their bulletin board posted in front of the concierge. The
reason why the market is referred to Marikina Market Mall is its sub-customer. Sometimes the prices
here are much cheaper than what is offered in the main Market. The cheapest price, according to

Farmers Market is one of the best “wet” markets in Metro Manila. Good and convenient location, airy
set-up, wide aisles, numerous vendors, organized sections, excellent variety and competitive prices
make for a great shopping experience. Any metro foodie from near or far should walk its aisles at
least once. I believe great markets thrive when there is a meeting of two groups of people: vendors
who offer quality, variety, good prices, consistency, volume, etc. and consumers who come regularly
armed with serious aggregate buying power. Farmers (as it is called by regulars) has plenty of both

plans for the building were modified many times. The inauguration of the structure finally took place
in 1853. A new fish market opened in 1911, and the metal roof that still exists today was constructed
in 1914.

Research Design
In designing a structure it is important to decide what kind of approach the researchers should
consider. In creating the proposed structure, the researchers will use a descriptive method and
qualitative strategy, to gather significant data about the public market regarding its present situations
and conditions. The tactics are observation, interviews, and surveys, collection of data from secondary
sources, photo documentation and case studies. This method will help the researchers to create a

1. Most of the respondents (both vendors and residents of Santa Maria), agreed that fruits and
vegetables section as well as the meat and fish Section are the facilities in the present Santa
Maria Public Market that badly need improvement. Therefore, the researchers conclude that
the design of fruits and vegetables section and the wet section must be more organized and
developed.
2. Most of the respondents (in the perspective of buyers) agreed that additional clothing sections
and carinderia sections must be incorporated in the proposed public market. On the other
hand, most of the vendors agreed that additional parking space, meat and fish stalls and a
transportation terminal must be incorporated in the proposed project. Thus, the researchers
conclude that the proposed project must have more clothing section, carinderia section, more
3. Drainage system, parking space and space inside the public market got a highly unfavorable
remark based on Likert Scale having an average of 4.25. For this reason, the researchers
concur that the design of the public market must have a more organized drainage system,
more available space for parking, and must have more available space inside the public
market.
4. Almost all the respondents (both vendors and residents of Santa Maria), agreed on the idea
of having a transportation terminal near the public market. Therefore, the researchers
5. Most of the respondents agreed that comfort room and waiting lounge are the facilities that
must be incorporated in the proposed transportation terminal. Thus, the researchers concur
that the proposed terminal should have both comfort room and waiting lounge.
75

Structural Design
The structural codes used in the design of the public market conform to the National Structural
Code of the Philippines (NSCP) 2015 Volume 1 (Buildings and other Vertical Structures) and
to the American Concrete Institute (ACI) Code for Buildings. Minimum design loads are
considered based from the NSCP 2015, as well as the seismic considerations. For the seismic
loadings, STAAD were used and complied with the Uniform Building Code (UBC) 1997
requirement.
