New Developments & Announcements 8-23-09

We've got plenty of new updates, rightfully so after a 3-month hiatus from posting new content. Here's the lowdown on what we've been up to in the meanwhile:

First up, is that we've closed our Pergola Paranaque branch and have plans to move it closer to Manila. We are still exploring new locations however, so we ask that regular customers of our Pergola branch first go to our Walter Mart Makati, Starmall, or Robinsons Galleria branches while we search for a better location near the south areas.

Second, we are running a Chocolate Overload Annual Sale Event at our stores from August 15, 2009 to September 15, 2009. For buying specific quantities (listed below) of our chocolate, we are offering a corresponding free gift.

Third, we are planning a new super-premium, super-delectable, and super-yummy new chocolate brand. Similar to the Maiden and Bakers Depot brand chocolates, this chocolate was developed with a lot of input and effort to get the right flavor formulation. However unlike the two other brands, this will be a top quality chocolate. We will make more announcements once this is further down the implementation stage, so stay tuned to the website's updates for more information.

Fourth, we're also now offering liquor for use in fruitcakes and/or cooking, and graham crackers in a 700g can @ Php165/can, all until supplies last.

Last, but not least, we are carrying the book "Guru of Meat Processing in the Philippines" by Lourdes Santos Rivera at Php499/book. The author is well known for her meat processing classes, and we've even had some customers give us feedback that they've taken the classes. This is the perfect opportunity to brush up on your meat processing skills before the Christmas holiday gift giving rush. May we also remind our customers that we offer curing/spice ingredients for meat processing at our locations or for special orders that can be picked up at any of our outlet stores.
