Development and Launch
editC3 stands on what used to be the old public market. Initially named "Pagadian Shopping Mall", the alternative design by Hillmarcs Construction prevailed over the original design by Palafox and Associates due to limitations in area size. Mayor Samuel Co led the project during his last term in office.
On December 3, 2010, C3 had a soft launch with the opening of Robinsons Supermarket. Robinsons Retail's Handyman Do It Center and other shops opened in September 2011 coinciding with 20th Mindanao Business Conference held in Pagadian City. Former US Ambassador to the Philippines Harry K. Thomas, Jr. attended the conference as guest of honor.
On September 23, 2011, C3 was officially launched in an event attended by performers from Manila.
