The story we built together: 40 years of Multi-Line

By Mary Anghelli Lingo

A company’s greatest strength is not built on products, systems, or numbers alone. It is built by the people whose dedication turns ideas into action and challenges into opportunities.

For 40 years, Multi-Line has grown through the hard work and dedication of the people who have been part of its journey. As the company celebrates four decades, it also honors the employees whose commitment and contributions have shaped—and continue to shape—Multi-Line into what it is today.

In celebration of this milestone, several employees from across the Multi-Line Group share their messages of gratitude, pride, and hope for the company.

Filipinas Multi-Line Corporation

“I was only 21 when I joined Multi-Line in 1990, and looking back, I can say that I grew up with the company. AOA became a second father to me, and through his mentoring, the ENC principles, especially the Nine Fruits of the Holy Spirit, became my guide and a way of life that shaped the person I am today. After more than 35 years, my heart is full of gratitude to AOA, MLCA, their family, and Multi-Line for giving me a place to learn, grow, serve, and become a better person. Happy 40th Anniversary, Multi-Line!” – Luz Gastilo, HR Manager

Multi-Line has grown not only as a company, but as a family. Together with my IT team, I am privileged to support this growing family by using technology, systems, and innovation to make our people more productive, our operations more efficient, and our companies ready for the future. As we move forward to the next 40 years, greater, stronger, and more successful, may we continue to embrace innovation, teamwork, integrity, and excellence, while staying true to the values and people that brought us this far.
