Aboitiz Foods is scaling its sustainability communication across Asia through its “everymeal” campaign, which generated over 32 million online impressions in 2025. The initiative translates complex operational data into narratives tied to 13 UN Sustainable Development Goals, helping the company make responsible business practices visible from “mill to meal” across six Asian markets.
Aboitiz Foods Wins Bronze for Sustainability Content
The “everymeal” campaign recently earned the Bronze Award for Best Content Campaign for Sustainability at the inaugural Content Marketing Awards Asia Pacific 2026, presented by NEXT Awards. The recognition places Aboitiz Foods alongside other regional organizations such as RHB Bank Malaysia, PT. Telkomsel, Warner Bros. Discovery, and Sentosa Development Corp.
According to Aboitiz Foods, the campaign serves as a bridge to connect sustainability efforts already active within its Pilmico and Gold Coin businesses. By consolidating these initiatives under one narrative, the company aims to demonstrate a measurable environmental and social impact to consumers and partners.
Did you know? The “everymeal” campaign isn’t just a corporate marketing tool; it’s an employee-driven platform. More than 70 story submissions came from staff in Brunei, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
Broadening the Definition of Sustainability
Aboitiz Foods is pushing the narrative that sustainability extends beyond carbon footprints and environmental protection. Joeben Gamatero II, vice president for agribusiness marketing and brand & reputation management, stated that the campaign helps people understand that sustainability is also reflected in process improvements, community support, and the strengthening of the food value chain.
The company’s framework focuses on several concrete operational pillars:
- Responsible Sourcing: Managing how raw materials enter the chain.
- Product Formulation: Improving the nutritional and environmental profile of food.
- Animal Welfare: Implementing safer and more ethical production standards.
- Community Partnerships: Creating local economic stability.
Data-Driven Impact Across Six Asian Markets
The scale of the 2025 rollout highlights a shift toward sustainability storytelling. By sourcing stories from employees in production, supply chain, human resources, and quality assurance, Aboitiz Foods creates a verifiable trail of operational change.
The internal participation spans six key countries: the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, China, and Brunei. This geographic breadth allows the company to align its regional activities with 13 of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Pro Tip: For companies looking to mirror this success, focus on “employee-generated content.” When workers in quality assurance or supply chain share the results, the sustainability claim carries more authenticity than a top-down corporate memo.
Future Outlook for the Food Value Chain
Aboitiz Foods intends to keep “everymeal” as a central platform for tracking progress. Annacel Natividad, chief risk officer, noted that the recognition from the NEXT Awards affirms the company’s commitment to integrating responsible practices into daily operations.
The company views sustainability as a “journey of continuous improvement” rather than a fixed destination. Moving forward, the strategy focuses on increasing employee participation to ensure that sustainability is embedded in every level of the organization, from the mill to the final meal.
