There are well-known retail stores that cater to your home improvement needs, whether you’re looking for renovation or simply need paint for your home or even for your business. The rise of retail stores that cater to these things has been competitive, and in the Philippines, there have been diverse providers of those types of services, even with quality at a reasonable cost.
CITIHardware is one of those companies that provide this type of product and services. Before we head to the province, while in Davao City, we visited one of their branches for paint supplies, as there are no major hardware stores that provide those types of needs, and the long travel to Davao Oriental is not a breeze. |
This is actually the second time I’ve visited a major hardware store that is popularly known in Davao City, as their branches are everywhere, not only within the city limits. But also, they can be found in other parts of the country. Their focus is to cater regionally, as competing hardware companies like WILCON are known to offer their products and services within Metro Manila and those nearby.
CITIHardware’s origin goes back to opening its store in 1976, but a major warehouse-type store opened its doors in Davao City in 1998. Entering the Warehouse-type CITIHardware reminded me of the time going to Bunnings on my frequent visits to the nearby Westfield Marion, and this is not the first time I visited this branch, as last year in September we were here to buy A LOT of paint for the house that I haven’t visited since April 2012.
This year, the paint needed is for the remaining exterior parts of the house, namely the roof, which is why there’s A LOT of green paint needed. This also includes the gate that has been worn, as I noticed last year, the road has leveled up, and made the house look like it needs some prepping.
Of course, this year I have to wear something familiar to the locals that they have never seen or heard about. I just miss wearing it, and I rarely wear this shirt since I don’t want it to look so worn out. Maybe in the future, CITIHardware would sell some shirts they have, as most of the employees wear collard shirts.
It’s great looking at some of the store’s sections and seeing what they have to offer for the local area of Davao City. They are not only for home improvements, but also have other products for automotive and even for other accessories for your mobile phone, or even have products for your grilling and gardening.
They have sourced their products internationally, and not only from the Philippines. For more about CITIHardware, you can follow them on their social media on Facebook, Instagram, and you can also subscribe to their YouTube channel for store updates and their products!
