Grape is a fruit, not a flavor. For 150 years now, Welch’s
maintain to be the leading real grape juice in many countries that offer true
grape goodness, fresh and natural in all its process, a quality that was kept
in a long tradition from Concorde grapes farm in the United States of America.
Joining the world in celebrating the 150 years of real grape
goodness, Fly Ace Corporation the Philippine Distributor along with Gemco, the
Philippine marketing agent of Welch’s dedicate one afternoon of learning and feasting
last July 27, 2019, at the 1771 Events Place in Pasig City. Gemco is
distributing Welch’s since 1994 in the Philippines.

The event is loaded with talks about a healthy lifestyle,
testimonies and games that open our mind, on why this purple fruit is still
mattered in this new age of living healthy, and the very fact it was still
patronized all over the world because of its Polyphenol powerhouse content,
which is considered anti-oxidants in our body. 2 grapes are served in 1 glass
drink of Welch’s.
Nutritionist Paz Sales on her presentation said that grapes fruits
and berries contain high anti-oxidants needed by our body to survive the daily
nutrients need in daily activity, Welch’s being no sugar added drink is a
healthy lifestyle we need to prioritize, there is no truth that drinking it
either cold or raw in temperature make us fat, the importance is we take it as
a supplement and there is no needed temperature to enjoy its benefits.

“Over the years the Welch’s company also with our representation
tried to expand and modernize the Welch’s presentation of this product although
the basic formula of Welch’s Concorde grape juice has not changed. Welch’s
company in the US is own by a farmer, they are not a corporate entity like
other products, they are very conservative, which is why the development of the
product is a building blocks style, they are on something already establish or
accepted in tune with high quality.” Said by Gemco President Gilbert Evaresto.
The 150 years celebrations of Welch’s in the Philippines
also feature a question and answer program with known Mommy influencers Frances
Sales and Aliza Apostol, a cooking cook-off demo with Chef Peachy Mathay and
Chef Trisha Ocampo. For the entertainment part upcoming singer’s JV Decena and
Joaquin Gabriel entertain the guests.
