==Company profile== ==History==
In 1972, Holland Milk Products, Inc. (HOMPI) was established. HOMPI was a joint venture between between AMC’s former parent company, General Milling Corporation (GMC), and Holland Canned Milk International B.V. (now ]). HOMPI initially manufactured liquid canned filled milk products, (evaporated and sweetened condensed milk) and eventually expanded to manufacture powdered filled milk and UHT milk products division up.
Alaska Milk Corporation was incorporated in 1994. However, long before that, operations have already started as early as 1972 through a Holland Milk Products, Incorporated. Holland Milk was a joint venture between Holland Canned Milk International B.V. and General Milling Corporation, another company founded by Wilfred Steven Uytengsu, Sr.. General Milling has interest in flour, feeds and soy bean milling.

Holland Milk initially just produced canned evaporated and condensed milk and UHT ready to drink milk. But in the 1980S, the company started producing powder-filled milk under the Alaska brand. Because of the rapid growth of the company’s milk business, management decided to spin-off milk production as an independent entity and incorporated it as Alaska Milk Corporation in 1994. A year later, its shares were listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange under the stock symbol AMC.
In 1994, HOMPI was spun-off from GMC and incorporated as Alaska Milk Corporation (AMC) under the control Wilfred Uytengsu, Sr. Shortly after its incorporation, AMC was listed in the ] (PSE) in 1995.

When AMC reorganized its distribution operations and networks, Nabisco International and Quaker Oats, Incorporated tapped the company to be its exclusive distributor of Nabisco and Quaker Oats products. The agreement was terminated in 2001 when Philip Morris and Pepsi Company acquired Nabisco International and Quaker Oats, Incorporated, respectively.

History

In 1972, Holland Milk Products, Inc. (HOMPI) was established. HOMPI was a joint venture between between AMC’s former parent company, General Milling Corporation (GMC), and Holland Canned Milk International B.V. (now FrieslandCampina). HOMPI initially manufactured liquid canned filled milk products, (evaporated and sweetened condensed milk) and eventually expanded to manufacture powdered filled milk and UHT milk products division up.

In 1994, HOMPI was spun-off from GMC and incorporated as Alaska Milk Corporation (AMC) under the control Wilfred Uytengsu, Sr. Shortly after its incorporation, AMC was listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) in 1995.

Wilfred Steven Uytengsu, Jr., the eldest son of Wilfred Sr., assumed the position of President and CEO in 2007. The elder Uytengsu died in April 2010 at the age of 82.

In 2007, AMC acquired the canned milk business of Nestlé Philippines, Inc. The acquisition included the Alpine, Liberty and Krem Top trademarks, as well as the trademark license for Nestle’s Carnation and Milkmaid brands.

In 2012, FrieslandCampina acquired majority control of AMC from the Uytengsu family. On November 5, 2012, AMC was delisted from the PSE after FrieslandCampina completed its tender offering for 98.1% ownership of AMC.

Other developments

Following the termination of the distribution agreement, AMC introduced an evaporated creamer and a UHT All-Purpose Cream, Alaska Crema in 2003. The former was to complete the value line of liquid canned milk while the latter is to complete the line of cooking milk.

In 2007, AMC acquired international milk brands of Société Des Produits Nestlé S.A., which included Alpine, Liberty and Krem-Top brands. With these deals, AMC accounted nearly 80% of the liquid milk market. A year later, AMC introduced Alaska Yoghurt Drink and Cowbell Condensada. Cowbell Condensada is marketed towards lower-income consumers who have become price sensitive.

AMC also distributes other foreign brands. In 2005, it has signed an agreement with Kellogg’s Asia Marketing, Inc. to distribute Kellogg’s ready-to-eat cereals; and Hersheys Food Corporation for the Hershey UHT chocolate milk drink from 2003 to 2007.
