Food, family and the Filipino

These are three significant factors in RFM Corporation’s recent celebration of its 50 years of operations. Aptly themed to highlight its five remarkable decades of service and also paving the way for the inauguration of the “fiesta” pasta plant and rededication of the flour mill, the event was led by RFM chairman Jose Concepcion, Jr and president and chief executive officer Jose “Joey” Concepcion III. Seen gracing the affair were President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, Presidential Management Staff head secretary Cerge Remonde, Trade and Industry secretary Peter Favila and Mandaluyong City mayor Benhur Abalos.

The Bonifacio Global City in Taguig stood as the scene for the much anticipated performance of Gary Valenciano, along with the formal recognition of the winners of the “Yes! The Filipino Can” awards. Renowned celebrities, political figures and media personalities such as The Philippine STAR editor-in-chief Isaac Belmonte, “Yes! The Filipino Can” awardees The Philippine STAR executive vice president Grace Glory Go and senator Juan Flavier, among many others, joined in the revelry. Congratulations!
