6/24/2026
Mayekawa Philippines Corporation (MPH) successfully participated in Livestock Philippines and Aquaculture Philippines 2026, held from June 24 to 26, 2026, at the World Trade Center Metro Manila (WTCMM). This marks the company's third consecutive year of participation in one of the Philippines' largest and most influential livestock industry exhibitions.
The exhibition served as an excellent platform to strengthen Mayekawa's brand presence in the Philippine poultry sector, introduce advanced poultry processing technologies, and establish meaningful business connections with existing and prospective customers.
Throughout the three-day event, MPH successfully demonstrated Mayekawa's commitment to automation and innovation by showcasing the TORIDAS SE Automated Whole Leg Deboning Machine together with the Gizzard Opener System. The live demonstrations attracted significant attention from poultry processors, integrators, contractors, and food manufacturers seeking productivity improvements and labor-saving solutions.
Using the LeadGrab digital registration system, MPH generated 150 qualified customer leads, creating valuable opportunities for future sales development and long-term business relationships.
The exhibition attracted a large number of visitors from various sectors of the livestock and poultry industry, providing an excellent opportunity for Mayekawa Philippines to present its latest processing technologies.
The live demonstration of the TORIDAS SE was the primary attraction at the MPH booth. Visitors witnessed the automated deboning process of chicken whole legs, demonstrating the machine's capability to improve processing efficiency, product consistency, labor productivity, and yield.
In addition, MPH introduced the Gizzard Opener, an automated machine designed to incise and open chicken gizzards for efficient cleaning. The demonstration also featured the auxiliary skinner, which further reduces manual work during the finishing process.
The continuous flow of visitors throughout the exhibition, including the final day, reflected the growing interest of the Philippine poultry industry in automation technologies. Many customers expressed strong interest in robotic processing systems as they seek solutions to labor shortages, higher operating costs, and increasing production requirements.
The exhibition successfully reinforced Mayekawa's position as a trusted provider of advanced refrigeration systems and poultry processing technologies.
MPH recorded a total of 150 qualified visitor registrations using the LeadGrab application.
The majority of booth visitors represented:
- Poultry integrators
- Poultry processing plants
- Food manufacturers
- Contractors and engineering companies
- Equipment distributors
- Cold storage operators
- New business prospects
The live machine demonstrations created valuable technical discussions regarding automation, production efficiency, manpower reduction, yield improvement, hygiene standards, and return on investment.
Several visitors expressed interest in arranging follow-up meetings, plant visits, and technical discussions after the exhibition.
The successful participation of Mayekawa Philippines would not have been possible without the strong support received from our regional and global Mayekawa teams.
MPH would like to express its sincere appreciation to the DAS Team of Mayekawa Thailand, especially to Mr. Jun Miura, Thipparat Somjit (Ms. Ying), and Mr. Pawaris for their continuous support from the preparation stage through the successful completion of the exhibition. Their professional guidance on booth presentation, product positioning, and live machine demonstrations greatly contributed to the success of our participation.
MPH also extends its sincere gratitude to Mr. Sakurai of Mayekawa's Research & Engineering Division for providing valuable technical support throughout the exhibition. His presence enhanced customer confidence and strengthened Mayekawa's reputation for engineering excellence.
We sincerely appreciate the collaboration among the Mayekawa Group, demonstrating our shared commitment to supporting subsidiaries and promoting innovative technologies worldwide.
The Philippine poultry industry continues to demonstrate stable growth despite ongoing challenges, including higher production costs and localized outbreaks of Avian Influenza.
As of 31 March 2026, the country's total chicken inventory reached 224.96 million birds, representing a 1.6% increase compared with the same period in 2025.
Layer chicken and broiler inventories increased by 12.2% and 2.4%, respectively, indicating continued expansion of commercial poultry production.
The national laying flock likewise increased to 79.98 million birds, reflecting sustained investment in poultry production capacity.
Seasonally adjusted chicken production for the first quarter of 2026 reached 586.52 thousand metric tons (liveweight), showing continued stability despite market challenges.
Meanwhile, strong domestic consumption continues to support industry growth. The expansion of quick service restaurants, food chains, supermarkets, and food processing companies continues to increase demand for poultry products throughout the country.
The Philippine market therefore presents favorable long-term opportunities for advanced poultry processing technologies and industrial refrigeration systems.
The continuing expansion of poultry production and processing facilities creates significant
opportunities for Mayekawa Philippines.
As processors strive to improve productivity while addressing labor shortages and rising operating costs, demand for automation is expected to continue increasing.
TORIDAS directly addresses these industry requirements by providing:
- Higher deboning efficiency
- Consistent product quality
- Reduced labor dependency
- Improved product yield
- Enhanced food safety
- Increased processing capacity
In parallel, the growing construction of poultry processing facilities presents additional opportunities for Mayekawa's industrial refrigeration systems, cold storage solutions, and integrated processing technologies.
MPH believes that combining refrigeration solutions with poultry processing equipment provides a unique competitive advantage and strengthens Mayekawa's position as a total engineering solutions provider.
Participation in Livestock Philippines over the past three years has significantly increased market awareness of the TORIDAS system.
While the Philippine market is still in the early stage of adopting robotic poultry processing technology, customer interest continues to grow each year.
MPH remains committed to converting this market interest into commercial success by pursuing the installation of the first TORIDAS system in the Philippines. The deployment of two machines-one dedicated to right-leg deboning and one to left-leg deboning-serving as a reference installation for future market expansion.
Moving forward, MPH will continue strengthening relationships with key poultry processors through technical presentations, plant visits, product demonstrations, and close collaboration with Mayekawa Group companies.
Livestock Philippines and Aquaculture Philippines 2026 was another successful milestone for Mayekawa Philippines.
The exhibition significantly enhanced Mayekawa's visibility within the Philippine poultry industry and demonstrated the growing market acceptance of automated poultry processing technologies.
The enthusiastic response from customers, the generation of 150 qualified sales leads, and the increasing interest in TORIDAS reaffirm the strong market potential for Mayekawa's poultry processing solutions.
MPH remains fully committed to supporting the continued modernization of the Philippine poultry industry while contributing to the global growth strategy of the Mayekawa Group through innovation, engineering excellence, and customer-focused solutions.
We sincerely thank the Mayekawa Group for its continued guidance, technical support, and confidence in Mayekawa Philippines.
