Grand Alliance Import Corporation (GAIC) invites food industry professionals and buyers to visit their booth (898–899) at WOFEX (World Food Expo) 2026 from July 29 to August 1 at the World Trade Center Manila. As one of the country’s fastest-growing food importers and distributors, GAIC will highlight an extensive portfolio of high-quality, hard-to-find ingredients sourced from Europe, the United States, and Asia.
WOFEX is the Philippines’ largest food and beverage trade show, drawing industry leaders, retailers, and the HORECA sector, making it an ideal venue for GAIC to connect with new partners and showcase its latest offerings. This year, GAIC’s booth will feature exclusive cheese brands such as Marca Piña Queso de Bola, Frico Cheese, Chianti, and Colonna Parmesan, as well as natural fruit juices like Fontana, Cyprina, Tea Time, and Happy Vibes Mocktails.
GAIC is recognized for its hands-on sourcing process. “We vet every brand and facility to ensure compliance with Philippine FDA standards and consumer preferences. We don’t just import products—we build lasting brand partnerships,” said Norique Gonzalez, Supply Chain and Business Development Head.
The company’s major product lines include premium dairy, shelf-stable pantry goods, baking ingredients, and beverages. GAIC supplies both retail and food service industries, supporting supermarkets, specialty food stores, wholesalers, and HORECA clients with reliable sourcing and consistent quality.
To ensure efficient nationwide distribution, GAIC has partnered with third-party logistics provider YCH, streamlining warehousing while maintaining strict inventory control. “We closely monitor inventory, shipment schedules, and shelf life to ensure timely deliveries and minimize delays,” Gonzalez explained.
Like many in the global food industry, GAIC faces challenges such as shipment delays, port congestion, and fluctuating supply chain costs. “We have to balance inventory carefully to avoid overstocking and maintain price competitiveness, all while upholding quality,” noted Gonzalez.
GAIC also places emphasis on building relationships with clients through regular visits, product sampling, and participation in industry events like WOFEX. “We support our customers with collaborative business planning, merchandising, and rapid response to feedback,” Gonzalez added.
Their products are widely available in major supermarket chains, including SM, Robinsons, Waltermart, Rustan's, Metro, Puregold, The Marketplace, and Cash & Carry, and on online platforms like Lazada, Shopee, Grab Mart, and TikTok. GAIC welcomes partnerships with local and international suppliers, retailers, and food businesses seeking a trusted entry point into the Philippine market.
