Peter Paul Philippine CorporationM1-I3On June 29, 1946, a couple of days before the Philippines gained independence from American rule, and 48 years after freedom from Spanish domination, Peter Paul Philippine Corporation was established in Barrio Pahinga, Candelaria, Quezon Province, making the company one of the corporate forerunners of a then young nation. The plant was built for the purpose of manufacturing desiccated coconut to supply its then parent company, Peter Paul Inc. of Naugatuck, Connecticut, USA, makers of the famous Almond Joy and Mounds chocolate bars. Additionally, it was in 1962 when a Filipino group purchased and has maintained management control until today.
Since its inception, Peter Paul has achieved and maintained its reputation for excellent and consistent quality coconut products. The implementation of the company's stringent standards are evidenced by its ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, BRC, Organic certification (for US, Europe, Brazil, Japan, China and Korea) Fair Trade USA Certification and Non GMO into its system. Peter Paul's proximity to the Philippine business center and international port facilities has also been an important asset in achieving prompt delivery and reliable customer service earning it the distinction of being the preferred global supplier for coconut based products.
We are committed to the utilization of our core competencies as a premier producer of desiccated coconut, and the enhancement of our other coconut-based products such as virgin coconut oil, coconut oil RBD, coconut flour, coconut water, coconut water concentrate, coconut milk, coconut cream and other specialty products. Peter Paul's products are seen in all major markets such as North and South America, Europe, China, Asia, Australia and the Middle East, and maintains a substantial share in each of these markets. Peter Paul's customers are among today's established household name brands and retailers in oils, confectionery, cookie, cereal and beverage industries.
