Universal Robina Corporation (URC) is one of the largest branded consumer food and beverage product companies in the Philippines. Founded in 1954 by Mr. John Gokongwei, Jr., URC has pioneered brands of exceptional quality for over 65 years. 

Today, the company aims to become a sustainable global enterprise with the purpose of delighting its customers with good food choices.

URC’s diverse portfolio and expansive geographic footprint have enabled the company to gain market leadership across various product categories in the Philippines and its key markets in the ASEAN. URC’s food and beverage brands have consistently been among the most chosen in the region. It is recognized as the market leader in the snacks, candies, chocolates, and ready-to-drink (RTD) tea categories in the Philippines. It is also one of the top three players in biscuits, powdered coffee, and noodles. In the ASEAN region, the company maintains a strong position in biscuits and wafers in Thailand, RTD tea in Vietnam, and biscuits in Malaysia.

The company’s Agro-Industrial & Commodities businesses are also prominent players in their respective industries, with URC Sugar and Renewables as the biggest sugar miller in the country and URC Flour as one of the top three flour millers in the Philippines. The Animal Feeds segment of the Agro-Industrial Group has also grown tremendously with its Uno and Supremo banner brands, while Top Breed is one of the fastest-growing pet food brands in the country’s dry dog food category.

All of these wins resulted from the company’s continued pursuit of providing value-for-money products, healthy food choices, and giving consumers an overall delightful customer experience. URC is determined to strengthen its existing ventures while identifying new progressive routes in the business to retain our competitive edge and continuously meet consumer expectations and needs in the years to come.
