Poten-Cee 50th Anniversary Campaign Bags Silver at the 60th Anvil

As Pascual Laboratories, Inc.’s (PascualLab) flagship brand, Poten-Cee, celebrates over five (5) decades of serving the vitamin C needs of Filipinos, it continues to carve milestones in the health industry. At the 60th Anvil Awards at the Manila Hotel, PascualLab received a Silver Anvil from the prestigious PR Society of the Philippines (PRSP) for Poten-Cee's 50th-anniversary campaign, #FiftyFortifiedandForgingForward.

#FiftyFortifiedandForgingForward celebrates 50 years of Poten-Cee which began as pedia brand Infan-Cee. Originally launched to offer vitamin C supplementation, the brand has since evolved to meet the health requirements of various individuals and has adapted to the Filipinos' diverse health and lifestyle needs, including immunity support as brought to the fore by the recent pandemic. The campaign for internal and external audiences highlighted these innovations across various media platforms, including digital and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.

For successfully capturing the milestones and meaningfully engaging stakeholders who helped shape Poten-Cee into the well-loved brand that it is today, the campaign met the award-giving body’s strict criteria.  It was then shortlisted among a record-breaking 586 entries, with only 122 or 20% making the cut, earning PascualLab its first Anvil.   

According to Mickey de Quiros, Anvil Committee Chairman: “While the volume of entries is impressive, we must remember that the Anvil Awards have always stood for one core principle - integrity. The true value of an Anvil lies not in the number of awards given, but in the quality of the work. So, as we honored winners, we are reminded that the recognition is a reflection of the impact they have on the communities and industries they serve. It is about creating meaningful change through well-crafted, thoughtful, and strategic campaigns.”   

This 2025 and forging forward, Poten-Cee affirms its commitment to Filipinos.    

Valerie Anne T. Sison, Group Product Head shared: “Quality and care are at the heart of PascualLab’s service. With Filipinos’ health needs front and center, Poten-Cee, will continue to move forward with health innovations tailor-fit for customers’ needs, offering benefits beyond immunity.  We always go forward, true to our 50th-anniversary mantra.”   

Poten-Cee is available in all leading drugstores and supermarkets nationwide and at PascualLab’s official Lazada, Shopee, and Tiktok stores.

Documentary on West Philipine Sea Titled "Food Delivery: Fresh from the West Philippine Sea" Releases Gripping Teaser

Award-winning documentarist Baby Ruth Villarama released the teaser for her much- anticipated film Food Delivery: Fresh from the West Philippine Sea, her entry into the 2025 Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival, and what seeks to be a strong contender for multiple awards at the country’s fastest-rising film fest.

According to Villarama, the film, which harkens to the current maritime conflict between the Philippines and China, is ultimately a story about empathy. “We want the audience to understand that sovereignty is not just a political issue; it’s a deeply personal one for every Filipino,” says Villarama, “From the fishermen risking their lives to feed their families, to the Coast Guard and Navy personnel delivering food to the soldiers on remote outposts, Food Delivery illustrates the shared sacrifice and the collective love we all have to protect our way of life.”

CLICK HERE: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1EDkbwjAiw/?mibextid=wwXIfr 

Villarama is best known for her documentary Sunday Beauty Queen which won Best Picture at the 2016 Metro Manila Film Festival. Outside of Sunday Beauty Queen, Villarama has also been involved for over a decade in international co-productions as a producer and documentary director for local and international news organizations. Many of the documentaries co-produced by Villarama take a socially-conscious angle, and as such, have been featured in international festivals in Cannes, Berlin, Venice, and others.

Outside of her filmmaking work, Baby Ruth Villarama is also a distinguished academic, having earned a master’s degree in film marketing and distribution from Birmingham City University in the United Kingdom as part of the highly-competitive Chevening Scholarship program. Because of her efforts, she also won the 2018 UK Global Alumni Social Impact Award because of the way her films explore the concepts of migration and modern-day slavery. Villarama also uses her spare time in serving as a board member of the Director’s Guild of the Philippines, as a member of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts’ cinema committee, and as a member of the Voyage Studious and Film Producers Society that seeks to push Filipino directors to greater heights.

With a resume such as hers, Villarama is evidently one of the odds-on favorites to bag multiple awards at the 2025 Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival. And with the release of the teaser for Food Delivery, it’s easy to see why.

The teaser begins with the visual of a simple fishing boat innocuously bobbing along the ocean waves. That is, until the camera sinks beneath the water, revealing an overwhelming amount of fish, and signaling to the overwhelming burden placed on the fishermen assigned to catch them. The teaser then moves to a more ominous visual - two boats, a fishing boat and a coast guard ship, carrying the Philippine flag - before ending with the titular statement: “fresh from the West Philippine Sea.”

In speaking on such a delicate subject matter, Baby Ruth Villarama has described Food Delivery as a film about unity, sacrifice, and the Filipino spirit. According to Villarama, what she hopes 2025 Puregold CinePanalo audiences find in her film is a sense of empathy and connection to the people who are often unseen in protecting our food, and by extension, our sovereignty.

With such an important film on its hands, the 2025 Puregold CinePanalo has already delivered on its promise to build on what was an impressive debut for the festival just last year. Outside of Food Delivery, this year’s CinePanalo has an impressive lineup of directors fighting for the top prizes in what has quickly become one of the country’s most prestigious film festivals. Joining Food Delivery in the full-length category are JP Habac’s Olsen’s Day, Christian Paolo Lat’s Journeyman, Mes de Guzman’s Sepak Takraw, Jill Singson Urdaneta’s Co-Love, Catsi Catalan’s Fleeting, TM Malones’ Salum, and Tara Illenberger’s Tigkiliwi. In addition, twenty-five student directors will be competing in the Puregold CinePanalo’s annual student shorts category.

The 2025 Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival will run from March 14-25 at the Gateway Cineplex 18 in Cubao, Quezon City.
