Hey foodies and lifestyle enthusiasts! I've got some exciting news to share with you all today. Universal Robina Corp's Thai subsidiary has just received two awards that solidify its position as one of Thailand's top producers of quality food products.

The FDA Quality awards were given to URC Thailand after they met all the required standards set by the Ministry of Public Health. This included product quality, environmental-friendly product-packaging-process, and the company's sustainability project, UR Green.

Not only did the company win the award for "Outstanding Food Manufacturer" (which it first won in 2020), but its Dewberry Puff Cake Orange was also named "Outstanding Food Product on the major use of local raw materials".

URC Thailand impressed the judges with its quality inspection and assurance program, its compliance with food safety rules, and its corporate social responsibility and sustainability program. The Dewberry Puff cake was especially recognized as 90% of its ingredients are sourced domestically.

"We are proud to contribute to the Thai economy, creating jobs for the Thai people and opening opportunities for Thailand's small businesses," said Tanant Suwanraks, URC's Vice President and General Manager for Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia.

URC Thailand has been operating since 1992 and has stayed true to its core value of "delighting everyone with good food choices." The company produces some of Thailand's top snack brands, including Jack 'n Jill mega-brand Roller Coaster, Dewberry, Fun-O, Tivoli, Cream-O, Lausanne, Dynamite, and Lush.

URC Thailand has a long history of winning awards for its quality products, work environment, and push towards sustainability and clean energy.

So there you have it folks, another reason to love URC Thailand and its commitment to providing delicious and quality food, while also being environmentally conscious. Cheers to them!
