BACOOR CITY — Innovation and entrepreneurship know no age limits. The Main Lobby of the Bacoor Government Center transformed into a bustling hub of commerce and community pride as the city celebrated Day 2 of the highly anticipated Senior Citizens Bazaar. Organized by the City Government of Bacoor through the Local Economic Development and Investments Promotions Office (LEDIPO), led by Ms. Khei Javier Sanchez, the event operates under the inspiring theme, "Making Sustainable Business Reachable." The initiative runs from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and officially concludes tomorrow, September 16, 2026.
Empowering Elderly Entrepreneurs
More than just a marketplace, the bazaar serves as a powerful platform for inclusive growth. By gathering various Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), the city has given senior entrepreneurs a premier, dedicated space to step into the spotlight. Visitors walking through the main lobby are treated to a diverse showcase of local talent, featuring homemade delicacies such as traditional snacks, heirloom recipes, and sweet treats crafted with decades of culinary love; handcrafted goods including unique, artisan creations ranging from woven items to custom home decor; and local specialties, a curated selection of homegrown products representing the very best of Bacoor's neighborhood industries.
A Cornerstone of the Local Economy
This vibrant event underscores a vital truth: Bacoor's senior citizens are not just beneficiaries of development—they are active drivers of it. The bazaar directly fosters strong community connections while formally recognizing the immense, ongoing contributions of the elderly to the city's economic landscape. By purchasing from these stalls, residents are doing more than just buying goods; they are investing directly back into the livelihoods of local families and encouraging sustainable, generational business models.
Final Call to Support Local
With only one day remaining, the City Government warmly invites all Bacooreños, nearby residents, and visitors to drop by the Bacoor Government Center. Don't miss the chance to discover unique finds, share a smile with the city's inspiring senior vendors, and show your support before the bazaar officially wraps up tomorrow evening. This initiative reflects Bacoor's broader commitment to inclusive economic development, complementing other programs like the MSBR Bayanihan Para sa Bacooreños Bazaar and the city's ongoing efforts to support MSMEs through events like the Para sa Bacooreño Trade Fair.
