About Us

Merkado Pilipino icon

We are a Mother and Son team.

 

Canada is home but the Philippines will always be a part of us. 

​

Malayo man, ay malapit rin. The Philippines may be half a world away but it will always be close to me.

 

Merkado Pilipino was born because I wanted to give my child access to his heritage and it is my hope that you will find something here that will connect you to your roots or perhaps, something that would strike an interest in you to learn more about the Philippines. Here you'll find books, artisanal products​, and digital artwork that reflect Filipino culture and traditions. We also partner with Philippine-based businesses to provide you with proudly Pinoy products.

 
By supporting this humble enterprise, you support a small business and our culture bearers.

​

Maraming salamat po!

Climate change is real. We make a concerted effort to produce minimal waste. Your orders will be shipped using eco-friendly materials.
