Customers of Ultra Panalo sa UltraPak raffle promo can deposit their raffle coupons available in the drop boxes of participating poultry supply stores nationwide. The nationwide raffle promo comes as a big boost to the backyard hog raisers in light of the declining supply of pork and its subsequent rise in prices. Since the last quarter of 2019, the issue of the low supply as well as the rising price of pork has been of particular concern for the government and the general public.
"This is our first ever nationwide raffle contest and this is our way of giving back to our loyal customers who have been supporting UltraPak. This is an opportune time for them to purchase our products for them to have a chance to win our grand prizes that will help them in their backyard hog raising business" said Dr. Aileen Veloso Guerrero, DVM, Product Manager, UltraPak.
The price of pork meat in Metro Manila surged by 77 percent in January and has helped drive up the inflation rate of the meat sector by as much as 17.1 percent, according to the Department of Trade and Industry.
The price increases have been attributed to supply constraints due to the African swine fever that has decimated hog farms across the country.
