History of Monde

WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF MONDE?

During 1979 Monde was originally incorporated as Monde Denmark Nissin Biscuit Corporation . 

Monde Nissin started manufacturing biscuits in 1980. Among its first products were Nissin Butter Coconut and Nissin Wafer.

GROWTH OF THE BISCUITS

In 2001, the company acquired Mar Yon (M.Y.) San Corporation, manufacturer of SkyFlakes, Fita, and M.Y. San Grahams. Subsequent to the sale of shares, M.Y. San changed its name to Monde M.Y. San Corporation.

Several cookies and snack products were also launched, namely Eggnog Cookies, Bread Stix, and Bingo Cookie Sandwich.

In 2005, Voice Combo Cracker became the first cracker and wafer combo biscuit in the Philippines.

In 2014, Voice Pops was launched as the first cream sandwich with popping candies.

EXPANSION OF PRODUCT PORTFOLIO

After establishing leadership of the noodle and biscuit segments, Monde Nissin pushed for a dynamic phase with its expansion to other product categories.

In 2006, Dutch Mill Yoghurt Drink became available in the Philippines through partnership with Dairy Plus Thailand.

In 2010, Monde Nissin entered the culinary solutions market with the introduction of Lucky Me! NamNam All-3-in-1 Seasoning. Its portfolio of culinary aids expanded further with the launch of Lucky Me! NamNam Tomato seasoning in 2013, the first seasoning in the local market with the taste of real tomatoes.

In 2011, Monde was launched as the first premium-quality packaged baked products line. It initially offered Monde Special Mamon, the first premium-quality baked sponge cake in the Philippines. Following this were the introduction of Monde Special Cream Puff, Belgian Waffle, and Crispy Waffle.

OPINION

The Price, Package and Availability

A pack of Monde’s special Mamon is only P59.00 for 6 pieces. That will cost you P9.80 each. For the taste and size of the mamon, I will say it’s kinda cheap and worthy.

The package is also worthy, to support the mamon, there is a plastic container where all the 6 pieces are laid vertically, side first and maybe to ensure that the products will not reach the consumers crushed.

This is available in mostly of the groceries and convenient stores nationwide.

The Special Mamon brought to us by Monde has become a popular take-home-from-office thingy for our family. The first time I tasted it was when my mom took it home for my little sister and since then, I became fan noting the fact that I’m not a bread lover.

Mamon is a term for sponge cake. This awesome snack has captured many hearts because of it’s softness, creaminess and distinct flavor. This is very popular on a way, that many desert and pastry shop here in the Philippines are catering their own version.

Taste and Verdict

This mamon, compared to others has distinct flavor and creaminess. This is very soft on a way that it melts in your mouth while chewing. I asked my nieces if they loved it and said “Oo naman, ang sarap kaya!”

For me, this is the best mamon in the groceries so far. Unlike other mamon that is big, but has lots of air inside, Monde’s different, it’s very pure. It’s also very cheap and available everywhere, so everyone can have it.

Try it yourself and buy this mamon in the nearest grocery in your place. Based on the price and taste, this is a highly recommended product.
