“Happy Bread Day” from Gardenia

When In Manila or anywhere around the Philippines, Filipinos or not, are bread lovers. The nutritional value, cost and convenience are just one of those many advantages and benefits we are receiving from eating bread not to mention giving us energy to succeed in our daily life. Wherever we are, it’s easily for us to grab and take a bite without a hassle. So truly, having the Largest manufacturing facility and most modern, Gardenia Bakeries Philippines Inc. is truly a blessing.

When In Manila last October 20, 2012, I made sure to be at the “Happy Bread Day” celebration of Gardenia Bakeries Philippines Inc., the event truly not just to have fun but a celebration of sharing. As a Lagueno, I am truly thankful and grateful for having Gardenia Manufacturing plant at Binan City, I could bragged anywhere that the most modern and the largest bread plant is located just 45 minutes away from where I live. I salute Gardenia too for the effort of giving to the children with the CSR to give a portion of profit from the loaf sold from the event.
