Mondelez Philippines offers products to grow food businesses

Manila, Philippines – February 8, 2021 – In the past ten months under lockdown, many things have changed. From the way we work, to the way we gather – or not. Most especially, we have seen changes in the way we eat and consume snacks. In fact, snacking is on the rise. According to a recent survey on snacking trends, the pandemic has accelerated the global growth of snacking and online purchase of snacks. To help food businesses meet this rising demand, Mondelez Philippines offers its well-loved products in food service packs, to help bring deliciousness to your restaurant or home food business.

Mondelez Philippines is the maker of beloved heritage brands such as Eden cheese, Cheez Whiz, Tang, Oreo, Tiger, Chips Ahoy!, Toblerone, Cadbury Dairy Milk and Halls. Aside from being available in retail outlets, the Company also has a Food Service range of products, which are specifically for restaurants and home-based food businesses. The beloved Eden Filled Cheese in 2 kg packs, an easy-melting Pizza Cheese variant also in 2kg, Oreo Cookie Crumbs in 454g packs for cake crusts, milk teas, and milk shakes, Oreo Cookies Grocery Pack 266g for toppings and other dessert needs, and English brand Dariylea Real Mayo in large 3.5L tubs for salads and sandwiches.

Currently, these and other food service Mondelez Philippines products are available for order from the Company’s various distributors located in Luzon and Visayas. Select food service products such as Oreo crumbs 454g and Oreo Grocery Pack are also available in retail stores nationwide. To see the list of distributors, you can visit the Company’s website here.

The Company offers these products to help meet the growing demand in snacking and online purchase of snacks based on insights from its global State of Snacking Survey 2020. This survey was conducted online last year in the thick of the pandemic by The Harris Poll on behalf of Mondelēz International, among 6,292 global adults aged 18 and older. The research spanned 12 markets all over the world, including South East Asia. Among the many insights offered by the survey, the acceleration of snacking habits was most notable. Specifically, 9 in 10 global adults (88%) say they are snacking more or the same during the pandemic than before it, with millennials and those who are working from home right now being especially likely to say they prefer snacks over meals.

In addition, half of global adults say they have started to buy snacks online more often than they do in store or offline, with 7 in 10 planning to continue shopping for snacks online once the pandemic is over. A majority say the pandemic has opened their eyes to so many more ways to get snacks than they knew existed before, including 3 in 10 who have discovered snacks to try on social media. What’s more 68% of people in developing markets like the Philippines say that they have actually tried new types of snacking during the pandemic.

Shares Kenneth Sambajon, Away from Home Sales Head of Mondelez Philippines, “We see the growth of snacking continue as we remain in lockdown. Particularly we see the emergence of online ordering of snacks, which benefits restaurants offering delivery as well as home food businesses.
