“PHILUSA is driven by its purpose to Touch the Lives of Families anywhere in the world. With its strong family culture, the employees embrace the values of Customer First, Passion for Excellence, Sense of Urgency, Integrity and Malasakit (care for). Thus, the company’s products have become one of the most trusted by Filipino families having established its historical relationship from generation to generation for more than 60 years.”
Achievements and Impacts
In just five years, from 2013 to 2018, PHILUSA, with its almost 300 employees, had expanded its business more than it had achieved in the 56 years it had been in operation prior to 2013. Its sales grew by more than 50%, outpacing the growth of the market.
The story of PHILUSA is the story of the Filipino family. For generations, families trust brands that offer solutions responding to their needs. Filipinos remain loyal to brands that their families have patronized for years. The company’s products have become one of the most trusted by Filipino families having established its historical relationship from generation to generation for more than 60 years. Its well-known brands to the Filipino consumers such as Cleene, Babyflo, RHEA, MEDIPLAST, Albatross, Apollo and Gleam have become either market leaders or strong challengers in their respective categories. The introduction of RHEA Generics in partnership with
the global leaders in the pharmaceutical industry in 2014 supports the Philippine government’s Universal Healthcare Law to provide access to the Filipino patients for high quality medicines at the most affordable price.
To realize its business objectives, the company is focused on building its infrastructure and organizational structure, investing on employees’ capability-building initiatives and implementing talent retention and attraction programs.
Future Direction
The company endeavors to achieve sustainable business growth by strengthening its organic business, launching new products, penetrating other market categories, acquiring new customers, expanding to other distribution channels, forging strategic partnerships and enhancing its presence outside the Philippines.
