25 Years Of Lots'a Pizza And Their Sweet Partnership With Dole

Ms. Teresita Ngan Tian, President of Lots'a Pizza's Franchise System, Inc. doing her opening remarks.

Lots'a Pizza, one of the country's leading pizza brands proudly celebrated their 25th year in the business. Together with this, they have just partnered with the most well loved pineapple product brand in the world DOLE. It's a welcome development to get exclusivity with a brand that has lived quality all these years. As a major component of almost all their pizza flavors, the partnership was perfect says Ms. Teresita Ngan Tian, Lots'a Pizza's President. They continue to research about better ingredients and develop even better pizza variants so the public would continue to enjoy the classics. They have also sent out new premium pizzas for those who would want to indulge more in Lots'a Pizza, something that we absolutely love!

 We were then treated to lovely Lots'a Pizzas that afternoon. Yes, I admit to have tasted them all!

The cheese was soft and creamy and the way it melts into all the ingredients plus the sweet tangy pizza sauce and parbaked crust was something you would close your eyes for. Quite heavenly! Aside from the lovely pizza lot, the thing that made quite a difference was the fresh Dole pineapple found in some of the pizza variants. It was sweet, not too tangy even if there was no added sugar or sweeteners. 

I love the classic pizzas that are also very affordable! We took a slice and more of the Double Whammy, Roast Beef n' Cheese, Bacon Blaze, Hungarian Fiesta and the oh so good Garden Harvest. They also have a premium line which consists of Great Manhattan, Hawaiian Delight, Pure Beef Special, Pepperoni and Mushroom and Hotdog Festival. It's now all available on their 204 Pizza outlets nationwide - this also includes their 50 franchisees. See what you get for your money? This is why they lasted for a very long time. Filipinos love something filling and great tasting for the amount they pay and Lots'a Pizza gives all of these! They sent out the premium ones to cater for those willing to spend a little extra for more ingredients. I couldn't tell you how much I enjoyed each one of them and I was full to the brim going out of Ascott that afternoon.

Alexander Adan, the Franchise Director and Product Manager of Lots'a Pizza Franchise Inc. here giving us a few words of wisdom before we left the venue. I like the part where he quoted Henry Sy saying that "He didn't want to be the number one brand, but wanted to be number one in the hearts and minds of the consumers".

Congratulations Dole Philippines and Lots'a Pizza Franchise Inc. for a very fruitful partnership. I can't wait to have more Lots'a pizzas in my home. Happy 25th year too Lots'a Pizza! :)

Greater Holidays With DOLE

We usually gain around 10 pounds every year and the bigger feasts come every December where Christmas parties are a plenty. We enjoy our favorite food like the usual pasta, fried food, hams and salads. All of these are ridden with thousands of calories and if you don't stop yourself you'll surely get more than that. How can you celebrate without the guilt?

Choosing the right kind of food is essential; high fiber, low cholesterol, rich in vitamins and minerals. It all sounds so good that you can get all these in one or more cups of Dole's Tropical fruit cocktail. 

Your dinner table won't be complete without it. Never settle for anything less. That's how you celebrate a great holiday with DOLE! :) 

I've Got Dole In My Home, How About You?! =)

Right after a vacation, I told myself a ton of times to eat healthy but I always end up getting junk food on the forefront of my snacks. That's really sad. Good thing Dole came to my home and got me the freshest, sweetest fruits in cans, containers and fruit cups!

Dole Pineapple Chunks landed on my salad. I don't really dig plain old leaves on my bowl so I sweeten it up with this awesome pieces of pineapple which doesn't make my stomach ache even if eaten early in the morning. I find it less acidic and better if consumed throughout the day as a snack. 

Dole's Tropical Fruit Cocktail looks good here, but even better inside the can. Aside from your favorite pineapple, they've got other fruits included in it PLUS TONS OF CHERRIES which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE. They make it a point that you enjoy those tiny bits of fruit goodness that will provide you your daily allowance of Vitamin C and more! Whip up 2 dollops of cream and it's an instant fruit salad where kids and adults would love after a meal! What's your favorite recipe? Mine even has lots of cheese on it no joke!

 

Dole's Diced Peaches is perfect when you want something cold. Just pop it in the refrigerator and wait for a few minutes, take it out and enjoy these small squares by opening the lid and spoon it up! It's sweet and quite nice to have after a workout. 80 of good calories isn't that bad on your diet! Your doctor might even recommend this too!

Get a lighter way of enjoying your Sliced Peaches with this version in Light Syrup. Less the sugar content of the original fruit cans. It's even better to carry around and share with your peers at work who'd want to get a piece or two on your jar too. There's plenty more of where this came from!

For pasta lovers, it's now easy to get a bowl or two ready for your meal. Grab one of these NEW Dole Spaghetti Sauces that's available in Filipino, Italian and Sweet Style variants. There's one for everyone! I boiled half a kilo for a pack of these and it was GOOD! You don't have to spend so much either! Really cool!

Make sure there's DOLE in your home so you can enjoy a healthier alternative to snacks and enjoy REAL fruit goodness in every can, cup or container. It shouldn't be that hard to find these on your favorite groceries nationwide! =) Plus they've got really good looking endorsers too!

The DOLE-licious Day!

It was an awesome DOLEICIOUS day last weekend when Dole put up another event at the posh Eastwood City neighborhood. Together with their endorsers, they brought fun and exciting contests to the enjoyment of the crowd. Imagine Phil Younghusband, Jon Avila, Bianca Valerio and Chef Jeremy Favia interacting and having fun with kids and adults during the "This is my DOLE" event.

I have never seen Phil this enthusiastic and so very GAME playing with his fans. It was awesome that they get to see him in a different light. He was so nice and made his portion very light. It was also the same with the other celebrities.

We were also treated to a very nice dance number by 38 degrees. They got energy like the energizer bunny. They jived to modern tunes that the crowd also enjoyed!

Then Dole announced the winners for their video contest. All the winners had their videos included in the official "This is my DOLE" commercial. Now, they're going to become celebrities too because it will be shown in public TV soon! We watched it that evening and it was so nice to see real people included in it!

Some of the winners also volunteered to perform their version of the "This is my DOLE" jingle. It was nice and they carried tunes well. The crowd even sang with them on some parts. LSS bigtime!

Phil Younghusband, Jon Avila, Bianca Valerio and Chef Jeremy Favia made sure they got their point across. They encouraged Moms, Dads, Teens, children of all ages to make it a habit to have one or more DOLE products in their diet to have the daily allowances of Vitamins, Minerals and Fiber. It's not only healthy, but it's so good too!

Congratulations to DOLE for making this day worthwhile. Thank you for their awesome existence. With them in the Philippine market, we get to enjoy life's best fruit and juices in personal servings that's always available in nearby stores nationwide! I'm so looking forward to the next events with DOLE!

Addendum: We also go to meet the endorsers back stage, they were all so nice! :)
