Several food manufacturers, including Century Pacific, have agreed to keep prices steady for up to two months to help ease the impact of global commodity uncertainties.
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. confirmed the commitment after inspecting Century Pacific’s facility in Calamba, Laguna, assuring the public that food supply remains stable.
Trade Secretary Cristina Roque said inspections of groceries and manufacturing plants indicate supplies of necessities and prime commodities can last at least 30 days.
No cases of hoarding or profiteering have been reported, and manufacturers pledged to maintain current prices for one to two months.
Century Pacific officials confirmed that operations and inventories are sufficient to meet nationwide demand, with the government continuing close coordination with suppliers.
