Protein and Animal Nutrition

San Miguel Foods, Inc. (SMFI) is a subsidiary of San Miguel Food and Beverage, Inc. (SMFB) that is engaged in the agro-industrial sector specifically in commercial feeds, poultry, pork and beef, with leading market shares in each of these industry segments.


SMFI employs a vertically-integrated farm-to-plate business model with geographically dispersed facilities including feed mills, farms, hatcheries, processing plants, warehouses, distribution facilities and branded retail outlets selling chicken, pork and beef. This model allows the company to derive synergies all along the value chain through economies of scale in sourcing raw materials, sharing of an extensive knowledge base in feed formulation, animal health and husbandry, manufacturing and best practices related to biosecurity, food safety and sustainability.


B-Meg is the company’s main brand for feeds with products for different animal types being further identified by sub-brands such as Premium and Expert for hogs and Integra for free range fowl. A line of pet care products is also being marketed under the brand Nutri Chunks, while veterinary products are sold under San Miguel Animal Health Care (SMAHC).


In the poultry category, Magnolia Chicken continues to be the market leader, while Monterey Pork and Beef remain top-of-mind in their respective categories.
