Liquor Arm Fuels Lucio Tan Group Record 2025 Earnings

Manila: Tanduay Distillers, Inc.'s continued growth played a significant role in driving the Lucio Tan Group's (LTG) strong financial performance in 2025. The conglomerate posted its fourth consecutive year of record earnings, with a consolidated attributable income of PHP30.98 billion in 2025, a seven-percent increase from the PHP28.92 billion in 2024.

According to Philippines News Agency, Tanduay recorded a net income of PHP3.12 billion in 2025, a 45-percent increase from 2024's PHP2.15 billion. It marked its sixth consecutive year of record-breaking profits, increasing its share in LTG's consolidated attributable income from seven percent in 2024 to 10 percent in 2025.

'Tanduay's continued growth reflects its strength as a brand and the trust of our consumers. Achieving six consecutive years of record profits also shows the efficiency of our teams across the organization and their focus on delivering quality products for Tanduay's increasing consumer base,' Lucio Tan III, LTG and Tanduay president, said.

Tanduay's strong bottom line was supported by higher net revenues of PHP34 billion in 2025, which was slightly above the PHP33.85 billion it recorded in 2024 and attributed to better pricing strategies and improved operational efficiency. Cost of sales declined to PHP28.12 billion in 2025 compared to PHP28.92 billion in 2024, while higher selling prices and cost reduction programs resulted in a higher gross profit margin of 17 percent, up from 15 percent in 2024.

Tanduay's operating expenses also went down to PHP2.02 billion, from PHP2.12 billion in 2024, due to lower spending on advertising, promotions and other operating costs. Beyond its strong financial performance, Tanduay strengthened its leadership in the country as it expanded its national market share to 39.5 percent, up from 34.2 percent in 2024. It continued to dominate the Visayas with a 70.4 percent market share, and Mindanao with an even bigger 82.9 percent.

Moving forward, Tanduay is looking to expand its international footprint by increasing product availability in more countries. It aims to capitalize on the growing global demand for premium spirits and introducing more international consumers to one of the Philippines' most iconic rum brands.

As of this writing, Tanduay is distributed in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, People's Republic of China, Peru, Poland, Singapore, Slovakia, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, the Netherlands, United Arab Emirates, United States, and United Kingdom.
