Big Ben Group is strengthening the backbone of its manufacturing operations in Bulacan through a new electricity supply partnership with MPower, the retail electricity arm of Manuel V. Pangilinan-led Manila Electric Company (Meralco).
Under the agreement, MPower will provide reliable and cost-competitive electricity to Big Ben Group’s manufacturing facilities in Pulilan, helping support continuous production as the construction materials supplier positions itself for sustained growth.
The partnership underscores how energy reliability and efficiency are becoming increasingly critical for manufacturers seeking to control costs, improve productivity and maintain dependable service amid a competitive business environment.
Big Ben Group, a manufacturer and supplier of ready-mix concrete, serves projects ranging from residential developments to major commercial and infrastructure ventures.
For the company, securing a dependable power supply is closely tied to its ability to meet customer requirements and support future expansion.
“Energy reliability and cost efficiency are fundamental to how we operate and compete. We cannot promise excellence to our clients if we do not secure excellence in our own operations,” Big Ben Group Chairman Pacifico Eusebio Jr. said.
“Partnering with a trusted provider like MPower strengthens the foundation of our business and supports our long-term vision for growth and resilience,” he added.
The electricity supply agreement is also expected to reinforce operational continuity across Big Ben Group’s facilities, supporting efficient production and the timely delivery of materials for projects and communities it serves.
Beyond reliability and cost management, the partnership forms part of Big Ben Group’s broader push to integrate sustainability into its long-term business strategy.
“Sustainability has to be embedded in how we operate and plan for the future,” Big Ben Group Director Benjamin Eusebio said.
“Partnering with MPower enables us to improve our energy management while supporting our long-term business and sustainability goals. It reinforces our belief that responsible business decisions and operational excellence go hand in hand,” he added.
MPower Head Redel Domingo said the electricity supplier aims to go beyond simply delivering power by helping customers strengthen their overall operational performance.
“Our commitment extends beyond delivering power. We support Big Ben Group’s growth by providing the energy solutions and expertise needed to strengthen operational performance and long-term resilience,” Domingo said.
“By ensuring a stable and reliable power supply, we help create the conditions for businesses to focus on what they do best and continue creating value for their customers and communities,” he added.
MPower continues to expand its portfolio of commercial and industrial customers by offering competitive electricity supply and flexible energy solutions designed to help businesses improve efficiency, manage costs and strengthen long-term resilience.
