Aboitiz food business unit Pilmico Animal Nutrition Corp. recently turned over 1.3 million bangus fry to help Capiz fishermen rebuild their typhoon-depleted fish stocks. Pilmico’s Aqua Feeds team, in partnership with the Roxas City government and Sagana Agricultural Supply, launched Bangon Capiznon to provide fish farmers in Capiz province the necessary seed stocks and technical support to revive its aquaculture production. Roxas City, dubbed as the country’s “seafood capital” due to its abundant fish and seafood production, was one of the places severely damaged by Typhoon Ursula that ravaged the country in December 2019.
