A year ago, Watsons Philippines began broadening its market, and complemented its beauty products with health and wellness vitamin and supplements.

In efforts to make high-quality medicine more accessible to all sectors of Filipino society, the Watsons Generics was launched.

The company has been rattled by the idea that “Filipinos die without even seeing a doctor.”

Marketing Director Viki Encarnacion stressed during a small media event held at Makati Shangri-La Hotel last July 16, that the Watsons group is aiming for a “more inclusive” development for those less capable buying high-quality medicines.

On June 19, 2015, its efforts in the Health Promotion Category have been recognized by the non-government organization, Enterprise Asia, via the Asia Responsible Entrepreneurship Awards (AREA). It is the only recipient from the Philippines.

Trading Health Director Danilo Chong was happy to say that “people are starting to see that generics can also be high quality.”

ENTERTAINMENT EVERYWHERE. Meanwhile, television has evolved into a social necessity that satisfies the continuous demand for quality multimedia entertainment.
