MANILA, Philippines - Spanish yoghurt manufacturer Leche Pascual said it would like to invest 6 million euro for a manufacturing facility in the country.
Trade Secretary Jesli A. Lapus said that Leche Pascual is looking for a local firm in order to form a joint venture project. “They are currently considering San Miguel and Alaska,” he said.
Lapus said they will meet with company officials during his Madrid trip in April 15 with President Arroyo.
