COMPANY ROOTS
CM & Sons Food Products, Inc. was established as a family enterprise in 1995 in Bacolod City,
Negros Occidental. Its products are marketed under the trade name “Merci” a French word meaning
“thank you”. Though the trade name is undergoing a rebranding process from Merci to Merzci, the
company still believes that it will remain competitive in the food market.
Merzci started as a small bakery, supplying breads to a single store at the Libertad Market. Eventually,
its popularity became undeniable due to a growing satisfied customer pool. With its high quality
breads at affordable prices, combined with aggressive marketing strategies and the ingenuity of youth,
it did not take long for the company to establish its own branches around the city and supply products
to satellite dealers all over the province.
Merzci also evolved into a fast food restaurant serving scrumptious and affordable snacks and
short-order meals for people on the go.
Complementing its food line, it diversified its business interests in 2003 with the introduction of its
bottled purified water brands distributed around Negros Island, namely MERCI PURIFIED DRINKING
WATER and VITALIFE PURIFIED DRINKING WATER. Despite competition from national brands, the
two brands successfully sliced a big share in the province’s purified water market in only a few
months’ time and up to present. The water brand is also expected to follow suit in the rebranding of its
trade name.
The success of CM & Sons Food Products, Inc. may very well be attributed to its ability to cope with
the emergence of new markets and opportunities.
In January 2005, CM & Sons launched its newest line – MERZCI PASALUBONG TREATS, to cater to
the growing tourist and balikbayan crowd that regularly come to the province. The pasalubong treats
have gained a massive “suki” consumer crowd that prompted the company to open its first pasalubong
center in Singcang, Bacolod City in September 2005. This branch is only about five minutes away
from the old Bacolod Airport which, at that time, gained a wide acceptance among the locals and
travelers alike. Seven months later, a second pasalubong center emerged in Mandalagan in April 2006,
which now caters mainly to travelers leaving the city on the way to the north of the island. In 2008,
when the New Bacolod-Silay Airport was opened to the public a new branch conveniently located at the
Departure Area was opened for its customers who are always on the go. And, most recently last
February of 2013, BREDCO Branch was established to cater to Iloilo-Panay travelers making it a point
that, indeed, Merzci will always be a part of a traveler’s Bacolod experience.
For more than two decades, the company has produced quality products from breads to pastries to
Visayan delicacies to short order meals and even purified water. Products are made available in the
different branches and dealers in the Negros Island, Panay, even reaching as far as Tuguegarao City in
the North, Zamboanga City, Manila, and Cebu. Some products are also exported by distributors to
Canada, the USA, and other parts of the world.
Believing in the power of advertising and promotions, the company employs various media exposures
such as television, radio, print, and even social media to reach its varied target markets. Special events
such as concerts, tourism and sports events, and other special activities are also considered by the
company as avenues to reach new markets.
