<< Our Social
Commitment
In recent years, people are
becoming more and more health-conscious. People have begun going to
gyms and spas to keep fit and have become carefully selective in the
food they eat.
To address the need for nutritious
food, Pilmico Foods is proud to announce that all Pilmico flour
products are now fortified with Vitamin A and iron.
Vitamin A plays an important role
in vision, bone growth and reproduction and is essential in the
formation and maintenance of healthy skin, hair, and mucous
membranes.
Iron, on the other hand, functions
primarily as a carrier of oxygen in the body, providing stamina and
increased resistance to infection.
Pilmico’s fortification efforts are
aligned with the government’s food fortification program, called
Sangkap Pinoy Seal Program, encouraging food manufacturers to
fortify their products with essential nutrients at levels approved
by the Department of Health.
In November 2004, regional and
national Sangkap Pinoy committees have visited Pilmico’s
Iligan plant to observe and ensure proper fortification activities.
Soon, Pilmico flour products will proudly bear the Sangkap Pinoy
seal, a compelling proof of the products’ nutritional value.
Pilmico Foods Corporation is an Aboitiz Company and one of the
country’s premier flour millers. It manufactures soft wheat and hard
wheat flour under the brand names Wooden Spoon, Sun Moon Star,
Sunshine, Glowing Sun, Kutitap, Gold Star and Megastar. For more
