Filipinos love to eat and this is basically attributed to our love for cooking. But after a lot of fast food chains that were established in the country, we tend to forget our traditional dining taste. This is the reason why a group of young Filipinos pursued the rebirth of Pinoy classics like adobo and bistek, tapa and tocino, sisig and longganisa, even salted egg and tomato. They realized that Philippines has much to contribute to the culinary world and this led to the rediscovery of an age-old but very clever Filipino dining practice, eating on the banana leaves. Beyond cuisine, Binalot is really about advocating Pinoy values and culture, the best in and of the Filipino. With culinary excellence, Binalot aims to advance Pinoy excellence.
Binalot Fiesta Foods Inc. (BFFI) has grown in just 10 years and continues to make its All Time Pinoyvorite meals accessible with the launch of its very own Online Delivery System through Multiply last June 21, 2012 held at the Binalot Jupiter St. branch. This new innovation, powered by online retail platform Multiply Philippines, provides convenience in choosing the food customers prefer online which they can access anytime. It presents the ease of ordering online versus calling the hotline. Various online payment options are available. Customers may use credit card, debit card or PayPal payment options.
The online Multiply store, www.binalot.multiply.com, is currently recognized as the first fast food store and Filipino quick serve restaurant to offer products in their website. The online store is expected to expand the market reach of true Filipino Food wrapped in eco-friendly banana leaves. Known for being a hub of online sellers and buyers, Multiply boasts an impressive array of consumer goods, apparel and gadgets.
Binalot CEO Rommel Juan positively shares, “We are excited about this new innovation for Binalot.

We believe that with this partnership Binalot's customers may enjoy a faster and more convenient way of ordering their favorite Binalot meals.”
