Farm-to-your phone-to-your table. Your favorite Sunday grocery items are now digitally refined.

Even before the pandemic, the paradigms of the retail industry had long jumped into the digital realm. Grocery stores and even farmers’ markets have been selling basic necessities like food, water, and healthy produce online, catering to the growing population of consumers who have internet access.

Now, the significance of online shopping has been further amplified because of the ongoing international public health emergency. It’s not just about following the digital trend or subscribing to a more modern way of living; rather it has now boiled down to survival and saving lives. The basic global mandate is to keep safe and healthy in the comfort of our homes and avoid going out unless absolutely necessary lest we spread the deadly  COVID-19 virus. And for us to follow this general rule, we need to adjust and adapt to a new lifestyle and perhaps, a new hobby. 

If you’re living in Davao City, you know that you typical Sunday grocery shopping is never the same. All shops are mandated to impose social distancing, hence the long queue of customers patiently waiting for their turn to get inside. It is for this reason that many have opted to get into the new alternative of shopping for their needs online so as to avoid these hours of waiting. 

For those of us however who are relatively new to this lifestyle, don’t fret because there are plenty of online stores that you can now check out – one of them is the Malagos Homegrown Produce. If this is your first time shopping online, here are some basic takeaways:

How does it work and where can I order?

The first step is to open your browser and type https://www.malagoshomegrownproduce.com or you can just simply click on the link right away. You will be led to a website where you can browse through multiple homegrown products like fresh fruits, vegetables, fresh meat and other sources of proteins, and even signature products from the Malagos Farm. You can just simply click on the product that you want to buy, indicate your desired quantity, and add them to your cart. Repeat the same process until you are ready to check out. You can pay for your items via different methods, though we highly recommend that you choose to pay online so you can proceed with contactless delivery – meaning, you can just make a request for the goods to be left by the gate or your doorstep if you’re apprehensive about making contact with our delivery guys. Once your order is confirmed, it will be delivered to you in no time.

How do I know that this is not a bogus shop?

Like any other consumer, it’s understandable to be anxious especially when payments have been made prior to the delivery. You’ve read a couple of news articles about it and you may have already been a victim of one and so you don’t want to just trust again. However, Malagos Homegrown Produce is a premium brand that always puts the trust and satisfaction of its clients at the forefront of its services.
