Our Founder
EDL Founder Story
Doc Ayong
Dr. Eulalio D. Lorenzo
The founder of the EDL group of companies. Doc Ayong’s inspiring story began when he was still a student who had to work in several construction sites to be able to sustain his tuition fees, and with the aid of a scholarship from the Philippine Veterans Association, he was able to take up a degree in Veterinary Medicine at Gregorio Araneta University.
Graduating with the said degree, he worked as a livestock inspector at the Bureau of Animal Industry and then became a sales agent of a veterinary medicine company. After resigning from his post as a sales agent, he decided to start his own company.
From then on, his hard work and determination are what catapulted him to success. He opted to use his skills in sales and created a network of business partners by establishing East Asia Veterinary Products, Inc. and Excellence Poultry and Livestock Specialists, Inc., to mention a few of his firms. This was driven by his realization of the country’s needs in the agricultural industry.
A former construction worker is now a veterinarian and proprietor of one of the biggest Pekin duck farms in the Philippines. He is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the EDL Group of Companies, one of the country’s most successful agri-venture companies with 18 enterprises under its wings and still growing.
Milestones
How we started?
It all began with a PASSION for animals and the agricultural industry.
Because of the challenges posted by Avian Influenza outbreak in Korea and other Asian countries, the Philippines was one of the countries eyed to raise and increase the Pekin Duck population to cater the needs and demands for duck meat.
We imported the first 500 heads of Pekin ducks from Grimaud Freres in France, which is known around the world for its genetically improved waterfowls and festive poultry field, were nurtured and grown at the smart duck housing facility in the Province of Tarlac. To date, the farm now has over 10,000 Pekin ducks.
After becoming established in the Pekin Duck sector, we capitalize on natural resources, growing market demand, and venture into Aqua farming.
With unique aquaculture practices, we began breeding and cultivating Marmorata and Bicolor Japanese eels.
We began raising Pangasius, Tilapia, and Catfish after recognizing further aquaculture opportunities.
We expanded into Livestock farming for small and large ruminants with the diverse breeds selection of goats, sheep, cattle, and buffaloes.
Our dairy cows are bred for their ability to produce milk from which dairy products are made. We offer fresh cows milk, pasteurized milk, flavored milk, yogurt and pastillas candies.
We acquired a property located in Mabalacat City, Pampanga, served as our Main Office and expanded our services to Feeds Manufacturing and Toll Milling, setting a benchmark for producing our own feeds for our ducks and ruminants.
