About Us in Fort Collins
Barkada Market isn’t just a store. It’s Fort Collins’ first Asian-forward cultural hub: a mashup of market, bodega, lifestyle shop, and creative space. We’re here to bring the flavors, colors, and energy of modern Asian culture to FoCo.
“Barkada” means a group of friends in Tagalog, (the Filipino Language) and that’s the spirit behind everything we do. We’re building more than a place to shop, we’re building a place for diversity-forward Fort Collins to belong.
