Phoenix recognized at Agora Awards

PUBLICLY listed Filipino oil and energy company Phoenix Petroleum has been hailed as the Marketing Company of the Year at the 40th Agora Awards on January 20 at Okada Manila in Parañaque City.

Organized by the Philippine Marketing Association, the Agora Awards is considered the most prestigious marketing distinction in the Philippines, which aims to give recognition to Filipino

marketing excellence “with an emphasis on ingenuity, versatility, and innovation.”

“We at Phoenix and Udenna are humbled to receive the Philippines’ highest marketing distinction. And it is especially heartwarming that the Agora shines a spotlight on products and services that have improved the Filipino’s way of life,” Phoenix Petroleum chairman and president Dennis A. Uy said in his acceptance speech.

It is not Uy’s first win at the Agora Awards as he also received the award for Outstanding Achievement in Entrepreneurship–Large Scale for Phoenix in 2013.

“Besides being a fan of marketing and strong brands, I am also a believer in destiny. And in a sense, we were destined to be here tonight: As our vision is to be the indispensable partner in nation building driven by passion to improve the lives of Filipinos,” added Uy.
