Reinforcing its commitment to nutrition and community development, Aboitiz Foods, through its subsidiary Pilmico Animal Nutrition Corporation (Pilmico), donated over P1 million worth of meat products to various partners and beneficiaries across Tarlac.
The donation included Christmas ham, brick ham, and jamon de bola from its retail brand, “The Good Meat.”
Aligned with its purpose of “Sustainably Feeding Asia’s Growth from Mill to Meal,” Aboitiz Foods worked with organizations that share its mission of promoting nutrition and building stronger communities.
Beneficiaries included Rise and Rebuild International Foundation, the Philippine Army, the Philippine Air Force, and the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Offices (MSWDO) of Bamban and Capas.
Rise and Rebuild, a key partner in addressing child malnutrition, received over 1,500 pieces of ham to support barangay-based feeding programs, providing much-needed protein for children’s meals. This collaboration also strengthens their joint efforts through Aboitiz Foods’ annual Kutitap Feeding Program, offering more holistic nutrition support to children in need.
Aboitiz Foods also recognized its longstanding partnership with the Philippine Army and Air Force by donating 1,500 pieces of The Good Meat ham to service members.
In partnership with the MSWDOs of Bamban and Capas, the company extended support to vulnerable youth. In Bamban, donations benefited daycare students during a key stage in their development.
In Capas, the donation helped nourish Aeta students living in dormitories, where access to balanced, protein-rich meals is often limited, supporting their physical health and academic performance.
“At Aboitiz Foods, we believe that food carries the power to uplift lives and bring communities together. With The Good Meat, this initiative is our way of giving back to Tarlac. We hope to extend not just nourishment, but also appreciation to the communities and the dedicated partners who help us serve them,” said Aboitiz Foods assistant vice president for Brand & Reputation said Pamela Lynne Liwag.
