Using qualitative-descriptive research methods with in-depth interviews. From the results of the study, it was found that an attempt was made to prevent the entry of networked modern retailers into West Sumatra as a basis for local retail protection as well as a basis for local governments to empower traditional markets. The implementation of traditional market empowerment and fostering policies based on West Sumatra provincial regulation number 3 of 2016 runs quite well even though there are deficiencies in the communication process.
