MANILA, Philippines - Univet Nutrition and Animal Healthcare Co. (UNAHCO), which manufactures and distributes popular animal health and nutrition products such as Vetracin, Jectran, Latigo, Bexan, Apralyte, Pigrolac, Early Wean and MamaPro, has inked a pact with the Foundation for Resource Linkage and Development (FRLD) as one of the major sponsors of Agrilink Foodlink Aqualink 2014, the country’s largest and internationally recognized trade exhibition on agriculture, food and aquaculture.
Agrilink 2014, which will focus on agribusiness clusters as key to competitiveness within the ASEAN region, will be held from Oct. 9 to 11 at the World Trade Center, Pasay City.
As one of the leading manufacturers and distributors of animal health and nutrition products for swine, poultry, gamefowl, pigeons, dogs and aqua, UNAHCO remains steadfast in its commitment to help animal raisers by continuously developing new products that will help step up production, productivity and profitability.
UNAHCO has formed alliances with global leaders in the field of animal health and nutrition such as Akey Nutrition and Research Center, Alltech, Novus International and Royal DSM in the development of new specialty ingredients, innovative products, new inputs and technologies.
UNAHCO president Ricardo C. Alba said, “UNAHCO serves as a catalyst of technology transfer by partnering with LGUs and provincial and municipal veterinarians, scouring every nook of the archipelago in offering free technical services, conducting seminars and training to update animal raisers, farm owners, farm personnel, dealers and suppliers on the latest trends, techniques and technologies in animal production. UNAHCO builds on the successes of an integrated approach to animal health management to improve productivity and reduce operational losses without excessive expenses.”
For more than 47 years, UNAHCO has actively supported FRLD in organizing Agrilink in order to achieve the mutual goal of uplifting the animal and food industries by establishing linkages and facilitating information, knowledge and technology transfer. This is UNAHCO’s humble way of supporting the animal industry and government’s drive to achieve global competitiveness in Philippine agribusiness as well as food safety and security for all Filipinos.
The triple exhibit, which is supported by the Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Bureau of Agricultural Research, Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization and 20 major Philippine agribusiness and trade associations, will bring together local and international suppliers and exhibitors, showcasing the latest innovations that will improve the value chain, productivity and sustainability of the interconnected industries of food, agriculture and aquaculture.
