Ajinomoto Philippines Flavor Food Inc. Cebu or APF Cebu celebrates its 20th Anniversary! 

To mark the company’s growth and transformation since its opening in 2004, APF Cebu organized a planting activity of mangrove trees with their theme “Mangrove Planting: Sustaining the Environment, Marching on to 2030”.  This initiative is a testament to APF Cebu’s commitment towards sustainability and community engagement as it commemorates twenty years of excellence in the food industry.

APF Cebu employees joined the Fisher Folk Organization of  Barangay Day-as in Cordova, Cebu to strengthen the coastal ecosystem restoration of the area.

Over a hundred employees of APF Cebu joined the Fisher Folk Organization of  Barangay Day-as in Cordova, Cebu, where they planted  1,200 mangrove saplings. This is to acknowledge the importance of the role they play as these trees protect our shorelines from erosion. They also contribute to enhancing the areas’ biodiversity by providing habitats for marine life.

Led by APC Group President Mr. Koichi Ozaki, Vice President Mr. Makoto Tanabe, APF Bulacan Factory Director Mr. Juanito Ramos Jr. and APF Cebu Factory Manager Mr. Teodoro Wong Jr., a total of 1,200 pieces of mangroves were planted. This is  a significant number to help  strengthen the coastal ecosystem restoration of Barangay Day-as. 

Last year, APF Cebu also conducted a similar planting activity in another strategic location in Cebu. This was done in Barangay Calawisan in Lapu-Lapu City, where the saplings have now shown significant growth as they have established strong roots in the coastal soil. This year’s mangrove planting is another promising activity that will be sustained through continuous monitoring to add to the number of the existing mangroves in these areas.

After the outdoor activity, a thanksgiving mass was held at the APF Cebu office to express the company’s debt of gratitude for the 20 strong years of stable operations. After mass, a formal program followed that included congratulatory and inspirational messages from top management of Ajinomoto Philippines. The sharing of testimonies from long-tenured Ka-Aji’s (a term fondly use by the employees of Ajinomoto Philippines in addressing their colleagues) and intermission numbers by talented employees made this occasion all the more celebratory.

APF Cebu will continue its pursuit for growth, stable operations, and involvement in their sustainability efforts and community activities towards Roadmap 2030 while continuously producing high quality products that stays true to Ajinomoto’s commitment to Eat Well, Live Well!
