In celebration of World Bread Day 2019 on October 16, Tinapayan at Iloilo Supermart brings a week-long bread fair at The Atrium.
The celebration of bread at the mall's lobby features games booths, selfie corner and lots of delicous bread from Tinapayan bakeshop.
Evelyn Que, Managing Director of Tinapayan, led the ribbon-cutting ceremony last Oct. 11.
Also present were the members of the Philippine Society of Baking headed by its president Royce Gerik Chua.
"This will be the first time that Tinapayan will be celebrating World Bread Day with activities and events at The Atrium" says Que.
She shares that for the past few years Tinapayan, together with Philippine Foremost Milling Corporation, celebrate World Bread Day with a bread-giving program in various schools around Iloilo.
And for 2019, more than 6,000 students from eight elementary schools in Iloilo became recipients of this bread-giving program.
" This annual activity (of bread-giving) will still continue complementing the bread fair at The Atrium" Que says. "And starting this year, our loyal customers will become part of this annual activity every October"
She says customers can purchase selected breads that come with special discounts that can enable them to give back and help as certain amount goes to the "Tinapayan bread-giving activity" fund.
Making this celebration of bread possible are Filipino Chinese Bakery Association Incorporated, Philippine Society of Baking, Nescafe, Unicomm Ingredients, Philippine Foremost Milling Corporation, Magest, Ferna and Asco Marketing Corporation.
World Bread Day is annually observed every October 16 to commemorate the founding anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in 1945.
With its mission to defeat hunger, FAO adapted the phrase "fiat panis" as its motto meaning "Let there be bread".
And Tinapayan shares this vision and support this thrust - one bread at a time!
