According to FAO, demand and consumption for chicken meat worldwide has been increasing. Roasted chicken, locally known as lechon manok, is prepared by roasting a whole chicken over a fire or a professional rotisserie. There is a lechon manok chain in almost every corner of the country which is a result of increase in consumption of poultry. The aim of this study is to understand the purchasing patterns of the lechon manok consumers in Davao City. This will be able to help the industry develop and keep up with the demand of its consumers. Those who have purchased lechon manok in Davao City are the key respondents of this study.
