Phinma Corp. recognized its best employees at the Fairmont Hotel in Makati City as a part of the Filipino holding company’s 60th anniversary celebration.
Phinma leaders and executives marked the activity as the first of a year-long celebration. The event entitled ‘Phinma Honors Its Own’ recognized select men and women within Phinma, who on their own time, in their own way, exemplify its mission of making lives better.
The gala had Phinma employees and executives toast to 60 fruitful years of service to the country and the Filipino people through its various businesses and affirm a commitment to decades more of making lives better.
Founded in 1957 by a group of young Filipino manager-entrepreneurs envisioning a vibrant and progressive Philippine economy, the company was one of the leaders in cement, oil, paper, roofing and coal.
With the turn of the century, Phinma refocused its participation in nation building from the industrial base to services.
Beyond its businesses that seek to provide the essentials of a better life, it expressed its commitment to community service through the recently held one-day simultaneous outreach activity spread out through various areas in the Philippines.
Covering community development and environmental preservation, Phinma held coastal clean ups, tree planting, traffic assistance, house building, story-telling activities and more.
