We have come a long way.
From our early days selling commodities, Commodity Quest, Inc. has progressed beyond all expectations into one of the most respected traders in the Philippine food ingredient industry today. Through years of dedication and our consistently high regard for customer satisfaction, we have become the name to trust among food manufacturers throughout the country.
Our diverse product catalog includes only the most trusted brands and, despite the size of our client base, we have kept our business connections personal, allowing the flexibility necessary in today’s competitive marketplace. This wealth of offerings began with the barest of commodities, flourishing over the years by progressing from value-added products, to functional products, to breakthrough products. We have been able to achieve this through a series of partnerships with the best suppliers in the world and by ensuring the development of our own employees.
These twin strengths of people dedicated to the highest standards of customer care together with the finest products available equip us with an unbeatable combination which continues to drive our company forward into the future.
Further, we strongly advocate food safety for all, consistently offering products of the highest quality from the most reputable of sources. Each product undergoes a rigorous testing process prior to its offering to ensure that every Filipino table is safe. This is our ultimate commitment to our end-users.
But this is not the end for us. In fact, this is just the beginning of our quest for the best food at the best price for the Filipino family. We continue to expand our product lines to answer the ever-evolving needs of our customers. It is our promise to meet, if not surpass, these needs by offering only the latest advancements in food ingredients and technology. We likewise commit to improve our service and become the best partner of our client companies.
Ultimately, we envision ourselves as being instrumental in attaining the goal of uplifting the lives of the Filipino Family through good and safe food. After all, it is their patronage and trust which has actually made ComQuest the Winning Ingredient—and will continue to do so in the future.
In March of 1987 Commodity Quest, Inc. was incepted. More fondly referred to as ComQuest in the industry, the company started as a commodities trader dealing basics like sugar, rice, pepper and copra. With its core products still undefined, it went on to trading leather, chemicals and computer peripherals. When food ingredients eventually found its way to ComQuest’s product line, it was the beginning of what would eventually define the company.
ComQuest found its way into the food ingredients industry through the COCOA market. For decades, the name ComQuest has become synonymous to cocoa and chocolate. However, as it continued to grow and take its entrepreneurial vision further, it expanded its market coverage, developing new and exciting product lines.
Today, the company offers other essential food ingredients such as dairy products, stabilizers and emulsifiers, savory flavors, natural flavors and extracts, hydrolyzed vegetable proteins, demineralized whey powders and starches. These diverse range of products are sourced from the Asia Pacific Region, the USA and Europe to Philippine manufacturers who process products such as baked goods, confectionery, ice cream and dairy, instant noodles, snacks, condiments and seasonings, and beverages among so many others.

To be the leading supplier of food ingredients in the Philippines and the rest of Southeast Asia by 2025, hand in hand with an increased number of warehouses, compliant with regulatory and statutory requirements.
MISSION
Provide continued customer satisfaction through professional and service-oriented employees and global sourcing of food commodities and specialty ingredients for the Philippine and neighboring Southeast Asian food manufacturing industries.

marketing efforts has brought forth this remarkable expansion. During this COVID 19 pandemic, the ComQuest sales force did not have to go back to the drawing table to re-align strategies to avoid compromise as far as service efficiency to clients is concerned. Even before the pandemic, computerization was already at play for better customer service, so there was a seamless transition as focus was directed at still providing the best customer service to help clients adjust and do business in the midst of the new normal. Assistance and collections are done thru webinars and transaction systems are digitally adapted for safety and convenience.
