Colonie notches 30

CEBU, Philippines - Colonie Pest Control Enterprises, a homegrown brand of pest control services established by the Suico family, recently celebrated its 30th anniversary that gathered its trusty workforce at the City Sports Club. The Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority-licensed and Australian Quarantine Inspection Service-accredited Colonie established in September 1983 with only two workers has grown over the years -- gained a steady clientele; improved its services (fumigation, general pest control, among others), being the only authorized operator for Sentricon, a high-end system used for termite elimination; and has increased its customer satisfaction quotient following the intensive trainings. The celebration also recognized its loyal and service-oriented employees of 23 years - Rolando Guardina, 14 - Lilet Bayawa, 13 - Edgar Damas and Ricardo Badan and 10 - Camilo Elarcosa! Kudos!  (FREEMAN)
