When you multiply those by hundreds, you don\u2019t just have a community; you have a&nbsp; movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This spirit of everyday <em>bayanihan <\/em>took the spotlight as <strong>Ajinomoto Philippine Corporation&nbsp; (APC) <\/strong>celebrated the second anniversary of <strong>SariCycle\u00ae, <\/strong>an innovative and flexible plastic&nbsp; waste collection initiative that empowers local micro-entrepreneurs, such as Sari-Sari store&nbsp; owners, to take a leading role in the community in reducing plastic waste and pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In two years, SariCycle\u00ae has grown from a promising pilot into a working model of circularity\u00a0 at the grassroots level. The program recovered over 27 metric tons or 27,000 kilograms of\u00a0 single-use plastics (SUPs) in 2025. Overall, that\u2019s equivalent to approximately 54 million\u00a0 sachets, three times more of what was collected in 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Behind the solid achievement are the more than 1000 SariCyclers across 30 barangays,\u00a0 supported by APC\u2019s significant collaboration with Basic Environmental Systems and\u00a0 Technologies Inc. (BEST) and Quezon City&#8217;s Climate Change and Environmental\u00a0 Sustainability Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At its heart, SariCycle\u00ae is a lifestyle program, as much as it is a sustainability initiative. Turning sari-sari stores into accessible eco-hubs encourages responsible waste behavior&nbsp; that is convenient and rewarding. When recycling is simpler and incentivized, more&nbsp; community members are likely to participate, and the continued collective effort is key to&nbsp; moving communities closer to a sustainable circular economy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the celebration, APC honored the best SariCycling Barangays and SariCyclers,&nbsp; whose consistent efforts essentially formed the backbone of this transformative program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The top 5 SariCycling Barangays are: Barangay Pasong Tamo, Barangay Baesa, Barangay&nbsp; Talayan, Barangay Bagong Silangan, and Lunas HOA Litex in Barangay Commonwealth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hon. Stephanie Tricia Pilar, Barangay Captain of Pasong Tamo, shared her delight as their&nbsp; community took the first place, <em>\u201cMaraming salamat po sa Ajinomoto at sa QC government sa&nbsp; napakagandang programa na ito. Dahil hindi lang po ito nakakatulong sa kalikasan, kundi&nbsp; pati na rin sa bawat residente at komunidad.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the program also recognized Carmen Ladisla as the Top SariCycler with her&nbsp; consistent dedication and outstanding collection efforts. Completing the Top 3 SariCyclers&nbsp; were Patria Uchi and Alicia Obedencia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>Konting sipag lang at kayang kaya natin mag ipon (ng sachet at basura) para iwas baha at&nbsp; iwas polusyon. Para sa mas ligtas at mas maayos na buhay ng ating pamilya,\u201d <\/em>Ladisla shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the initiative&#8217;s success, a new award category was also introduced: the Aji&nbsp; Packaging Champions. This award recognizes the top collectors of Ajinomoto packaging,&nbsp; reinforcing the importance of shared responsibility across the value chain. Alicia Obedencia&nbsp; was recognized as the top Ajinomoto Packaging Champion, followed by Josephine Valdez and Naly Ramos, respectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For APC, addressing plastic pollution isn\u2019t a solo effort. The company recognizes it as a&nbsp; system built through partnerships to come up with innovations that are practical, scalable,&nbsp; and rooted in real-life behavior.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This collaborative approach strengthens APC\u2019s broader sustainability strategy and supports&nbsp; its 2030 Roadmap goal of reducing environmental impact by 50%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI believe we are on track, based on our numerical records. From our plastic collection,&nbsp; plastic reduction, even innovation in our packaging. In terms of greenhouse gas, our two&nbsp; factories, one in Bulacan and one in Cebu are now operating under 100% renewable&nbsp; energy,\u201d <\/em>stated Ernie Carlos, Chief Sustainability Officer of APC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As SariCycle\u00ae enters its third year, APC remains committed to expanding its network of&nbsp; SariCyclers, empowering more store owners, engaging more households, and designing&nbsp; smarter and accessible ways for Filipinos to keep on recycling.<br><br><em>\u201cFor year three, we are very excited to announce that we will be expanding to several cities.&nbsp; We are hoping to have the same engagement in other communities as well, by applying the&nbsp; same strategies,\u201d <\/em>said Ayn Latorre, Sustainability Executive of Basic Environmental Systems&nbsp; and Technologies Inc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because sometimes, the biggest environmental solutions don\u2019t start in boardrooms or&nbsp; factories. They begin at the corner store, with neighbors, with shared purpose, and with&nbsp; everyone moving <em>sama-sama <\/em>(all together) toward a cleaner, more circular Philippines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quezon City, Philippines \u2014If you look at many Filipino neighborhoods, change often&nbsp; happens in the most familiar places and
