Vendors Sell Food Faster Than Fastfoods

To cope with the fast-paced world, almost everything nowadays has to be fast. People tend to be more receptive of things that are express or those that are delivered right infront of them.

 

Vendors have devised a new technique of selling food to their co-vendors in the public market. These meal vendors drop from store to store and offer cooked rice and viand placed in a plastic bags. They also produce paper plates covered in plastic bags.  

   

The other vendors who are also the consumers favor this kind of set-up because they do not have to leave their stores to go and eat in the canteens far from their stores.  Consumers also say that these “naglalako” sell food at much lower prices compared to those eateries that are legal. 

The legal vendors whose eateries are located inside the market said that it is fine with them if these vendors sell directly to the people inside the market.  These legal owners say that they can’t complain because they are both earning their living.

 

This kind of set-up is also observed in University of the Philippines Baguio and SM City Baguio. During lunch time, a vendor goes to Sunshine Park and sell cooked food to taxi drivers and students there.         

Vendors also go to UPB dormitory before lunch and sell cooked food to the boarders and staff.         

Before and after lunch, several woman also drop by shop to shop in SM to sell cooked food to sales ladies and crews of different shops at the mall.
