Agri-industrial firm Superseed Agriculture Corp. (SAC) has signed a registration agreement with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) to operate a food manufacturing facility.
The facility will be located at the Greenfield Automotive Park-Special Economic Zone (GAP-SEZ) in Santa Rosa, Laguna, PEZA said in a statement.
“This project aligns with PEZA’s strategy of ecozoning the country to foster inclusive and sustainable development. We look forward to seeing our local producers become exporters, and we fully support efforts that empower our local farmers,” PEZA director-general Tereso Panga said in a statement.
The agreement, signed on June 3, 2025, at the PEZA head office in Pasay City, formalizes SAC’s registration as a PEZA ecozone domestic market enterprise. It will process high-demand nuts, seeds, and related agricultural products.
SAC, a wholly Filipino-owned enterprise, is set to begin commercial operations within the year. The company has made initial investments of over P6 million in processing equipment and projects revenues of P72 million in its first year.
“We always choose to buy from our local farmers first before importing. If we can source locally, we can cut down wait times, reduce costs, and most importantly, uplift the livelihoods of our farmers,” the statement quoted an unnamed SAC official as saying.
All nuts and seeds processed by SAC will undergo value-adding stages such as cleaning, sorting, and packaging before being distributed to domestic markets.
SAC’s entry into the ecozone supports PEZA’s push for agro-industrial transformation and highlights the growing commitment to placing farmers at the core of national development.
