Who We Are
Lorenzana Food Corporation (LFC) is one of the more popular and experienced Filipino food manufacturers in the Philippines. With brand names like Lorins, Lorenzana, Filtaste and Selecta you can be sure of its high quality and good taste. LFC was incorporated in 1972 but it was established as early as 1908 as a BAGOONG manufacturer. It was formally named Lorenzana Food Products in 1938. LFC is the manufacturer of LORINS Patis, the leading Fish Sauce brand in the Philippine market. It is widely used as a key ingredient or dipping sauce for popular Filipino dishes such as pork sinigang, beef nilaga, tinolang manok, among many others.
As a major player in the local sauces and condiments market, we also manufacture, market, sell and/or distribute equally popular brands such as LORINS SOY SAUCE, LORINS SUKANG SASA (VINEGAR), LORINS BAGOONG SAUCE, FILTASTE COCONUT MILK, FILTASTE TABA NG TALANGKA (CRAB PASTE). These products have become staple ingredients in the daily cooking requirements of the Filipino family to enrich the taste and flavor of popular Filipino dishes. These are the same products that are highly patronized by Filipinos in the United States of America, Canada, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
LFC is in the business of marketing and exporting a wide variety of ethnic foodstuff, condiments; fish and fruit preserves, noodles, frozen fish, fruits and vegetables; and other Filipino food that are in demand overseas.
Our History
Lorenzana Food Corporation (LFC) traces its humble beginnings at Tagudin, Ilocos Sur at the turn of the century (1908). Its founder, Mr. Felipe Lorenzana started his Bagoong business with his family catering to farmers and miners of Northern Luzon. As the demands of the business grew, his son Solomon Lorenzana Sr. became involved and began exporting Bagoong and Patis to Hawaii in 1936.
After the world war, demand for Lorenzana products increased dramatically forcing the owners to move its operations from Ermita to Paranaque in 1942. LFC was duly registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in 1972. As the business expanded in 1981, LFC relocated to M. Naval St. Navotas, Metro Manila because of additional space requirements and was the base of its operation for almost 30 years. In June 2010, LFC moved to its present site at MMG II Industrial Compound, Magsaysay Road, Brgy. San Antonio, San Pedro Laguna.
From a cottage industry in Tagudin, Ilocos Sur, LFC has grown. It has evolved to be the market leader in the domestic Patis and Bagoong industry with its LORINS and FILTASTE brands. Modern facilities and the commitment to make Patis and Bagoong world class products have not only brought recognition to LFC in the global market but also brought pride to Filipinos overseas as Lorenzana has made Philippine Bagoong and Patis truly world class.
Today, the company stands by its commitment to further improve and develop Filipino products through its continuous research and development.
