But Mega Sardines is about more than good food. Through its Mega Bigay Sustansya feeding program, the brand has been tackling childhood malnutrition since 2019, helping thousands of children achieve healthier weight. In fact, the program has raised the number of kids with normal nutritional status by an impressive 46.4 percent.
Speaking at the ECCP 2025 Nutrition Forum, Chief Growth and Development Officer Marvin Tiu Lim highlighted both the impact and the ongoing challenge: “We’ve seen remarkable improvements, but malnutrition still affects 3.4 million Filipinos. At the same time, obesity is on the rise. It’s our mission to make sure families know how to eat well and make the right nutrition choices.”
The brand’s efforts were further validated this year when Mega Sardines received the Seafood Superfood endorsement from the Medical Wellness Association, cementing its role as both a nutritious and trusted choice for families.
At the heart of Mega Prime Foods’ philosophy is a simple belief: small, everyday choices matter. And choosing Mega Sardines means choosing a future of healthier meals, stronger families, and a better nourished Philippines.
