Philippine Aslam Corporation’s industry experience has spanned four decades and has grown year on year. Aslam built its name on its quality products coupled with integrity and exceptional client service that can be attested by all of its client partners, making them the premier vinegar manufacturer in the country. The company’s unwavering commitment to keeping the quality of their vinegar products, backed with integrity and exceptional client service, has been, and always will be, their formula to success.
The highest priority for Aslam is the quality of their vinegar products. Every batch produced undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure that each drop of fermentation stands as the best in the market.
In today’s article, Philippine Aslam shares their secret in manufacturing the best vinegar products in Southeast Asia.
Quality Raw Materials
Every business owner knows that the best raw materials produce the best quality products. Aslam’s manufacturing starts from sourcing only the best quality coconut and sugarcane in the production of their Coconut Tuba Vinegar, Cane Vinegar, and Sukang Iloko.
Apart from this, Aslam believes that the best raw materials are the ones in abundance locally, like coconut and sugarcane. The company knows that when dealing with raw materials, freshness is key. Locally-sourced products take less time in transport, ensuring the product’s freshness which is the key factor in Aslam’s vinegar quality.
The natural sugars present in the coconut water are still in its prime state when fresh. That freshness contributes to the development of flavor which is distinct in Aslam’s Coconut Tuba Vinegar. Moreover, the fresher the coconut water, the more nutrients and enzymes are present, which may carry over to the final vinegar product.
Likewise, the fresher the sugarcane, the more potent their sugar content when pressed for juice. That, in turn, would activate the natural yeast found in sugarcane juice, aiding the fermentation process of Aslam’s Cane Vinegar and Sukang Iloko.
Hygiene and Sanitation
Aslam’s quality vinegar products does not end in sourcing quality raw materials. Every aspect of Aslam’s vinegar manufacturing ensures that the company exceeds the FDA’s manufacturing standards. From Washing and sanitizing of equipment, to the cleanliness of the manufacturing plant, and the personal hygiene of all workers, Aslam keeps the best practices to prevent contamination.
Furthermore, all containers used in the distribution of orders are cleaned and sterilized before transferring the vinegar products. That guarantees that every milliliter of vinegar delivered is as clean as possible.
Additionally, regular checks on Aslam’s vinegar manufacturing plant maintains their adherence to the safety and quality regulations set by the government.
Naturally Safe
Vinegar is made through fermentation as prescribed by the FDA. In Aslam’s case, fermentation of coconut and sugarcane is the only process they do to make vinegar. Aslam’s natural fermentation process speaks well of the company’s integrity. Although naturally fermented vinegar can be more costly and takes more time to produce, Aslam believes that fermentation should be the only manufacturing process.
Fake vinegar, the ones produced using glacial acetic acid, is considered illegal here in the country. Some vinegar manufacturers label their products as “natural” or “fermented,” but in reality they are made through banned practices.
Aslam opposes such unlawful practices, the company is a firm believer that naturally-fermented vinegar is not only safer, it is also more flavorful, and beams with health benefits.
The Service
Although not directly contributing to the quality of their vinegar products, Aslam’s client service is as special as their product line. The company believes in inclusive growth. Every client-partner, whether big or small, is treated equally and considered as a part of the company.
This approach has helped Aslam retain its long-term clients and has been one of their secrets in acquiring new client partners along the way. Every concern, every order, and every inquiry is addressed with one thing in mind; client satisfaction.
