Company Description

Pilmico Foods Corporation (Pilmico) is one of the leading flour and feeds manufacturer and meat producers in the Philippines.

Pilmico marked the Aboitiz Group’s first foray into the food industry when brothers Vidal and Ramon Aboitiz partnered with Pillsbury Company of Minnesota, USA, and its flour milling company that was formerly known as Pillsbury-Mindanao Flour Milling Corp., Inc. The Aboitiz Group eventually acquired full ownership of the company in 1990 and rebranded to its current name, Pilmico Foods Corporation.

Its success in the flour industry forged the way for Pilmico to venture into other aspects of the food value chain.

In 1998, they established Pilmico Animal Nutrition Corporation, its agribusiness unit specializing in manufacturing feeds and producing meats. Its feedmill and farms are equipped with modern machines and technologies, providing top-notch manufacturing processes and products.
