Aboitiz Power extends power deal with Max’s

Aboitiz Power Corp. extended its deal to supply 1,200 kilowatts of power to the food manufacturing and distribution facility of NoBia Inc., the commissary of the Max's Group, for the next four years.

The company said on Thursday that the renewed retail supply partnership with NoBia, which started in November 2021, is part of its thrust to provide partners with affordable access to dependable power via tailor-fit energy solutions.

"No Bia Inc.'s dedication to evolving its menu offerings and enhancing its capabilities illustrates its unwavering commitment to leading the way in service excellence in food manufacturing and distribution. It is AboitizPower's privilege to support that with clean and reliable energy, it can and will deliver," AboitizPower retail head James Byron Yu said.

The NoBia facility in Carmona, Cavite produces almost 2,000 metric tons of food each month, supporting over 300 retail partner stores, as well as a local network of more than 600 stores in the country.

Tie-up mirrors brand values

For NoBia Inc. president Cristina Garcia, the tie-up with AboitizPower "mirrors its brand values."

"Leveraging on AboitizPower's renewable energy not only allows us to serve countless Filipino individuals with our culinary offerings but also adds significant value to the Max's Group's mission," Garcia said.

Moving forward, AboitizPower said it will continue to invest in renewables en route to reaching at least 4,600 megawatts, or 50 percent of its generation portfolio by the next decade.

Currently, close to 1,000 MW of AboitizPower renewable energy projects — including wind and solar farms and more geothermal capacities — are in the pipeline.
