MEATWORLD International CEO eyes expansion to Mindanao as it dominates Luzon and Visayas region
By Alithea De Jesus
It is undeniable that Filipinos are truly meat lovers, and we can even safely assume that we are probably one of the biggest consumers of meat in the region.
Cognizant of the heavy consumption of meat in the country, Meatworld International Chief Executive Officer Bernadette M. Lee sees and seizes the opportunity to expand their business and at the same time serve the growing demand for meat. Hence, the opening of Mrs. Garcia Meatshop is a harbinger of its expansion.
Known for its fresh, affordable, safe, and high-quality meat products, Mrs. Garcia’s Meat has been in the business for 25 years. Not just in the retail business, but also in supplying various meat requirements of the hotels and restaurants in the country, as well as to major supermarkets. Another strategy they adapt is to make their products readily available in convenience stores, such as Shell Select and 7-Eleven, and soon, they will be providing business opportunities through franchising.
“Every home has grown to love Mrs. Garcia’s Meats as their companion in making every mealtime special. So, we are excited to announce that we finally opened the first-ever Mrs. Garcia’s Meatshop this October 11, 2022, allowing more families to enjoy that extra special dining experience at home. As we open our new Community Store, located at Platinum Business Center, #188 Congressional Ave., Quezon City, we are eager to provide fresh, affordable, safe, and high-quality meat products to all Filipinos,” said Mrs. Garcia’s Meats Chief Operating Officer Bernadette M. Lee.
The store will serve a variety of Premium Pork, Beef, Korean, and Japanese Cuts, including Short Ribs, Sirloin, Lean Ground Pork, Liempo, and Porkchop, as well as Japanese Shabu Shabu, Beef Yakiniku, Beef Woo Samgyeop, Korean Pork Steak Bulgogi, and Pork Samgyeopsal.
All customers can also order in advance before picking up their items in Mrs. Garcia’s Meatshop through its Pick-A-Meat Express. This service offering allows customers to order via phone call before picking up the items. All they need to do is to drop by the parking space in front of the store, where friendly staff members are ready to hand them the meat products or help load the items directly into their car.
Meanwhile, as a way of marking this milestone, Mrs. Garcia’s Meatshop will now be open for franchising to provide Filipinos with business and investment options.
“The last few years have seen tremendous growth for Mrs. Garcia’s Meats. In many supermarket chains and eateries, people have come to trust our brand. As the core of MEATWORLD International Inc., Mrs. Garcia’s Meats has also hired a rising 1,500 butchers and merchandisers. By providing a franchise option to our customers, mompreneurs, and every Filipino looking for business prospects, we hope to spread the word about these success stories,” Lee added.
Mrs. Garcia’s Meats by MEATWORLD International, Inc. was founded in 1996. Since then, it has been helping ensure that fresh, affordable, safe, and high-quality meat products are available for every family and their recipes as it offers a wide choice of meat categories and cuts.
