Liberty Flour Mills Inc. is taking a hard look at its future, with its board approving the launch of a formal strategic review covering its flour milling business and selected non-core assets—a move that could reshape the company’s portfolio and capital priorities.
The review aims to assess all available options to maximize shareholder value and ensure capital is deployed toward higher-growth opportunities. On the table are multiple scenarios, including a potential sale, demerger, joint venture, or the continued retention and expansion of the flour business within Liberty Flour’s existing structure.
While flour milling remains a significant contributor to operations, the board said the timing is right to reassess how best to unlock its value. The decision suggests a recognition that legacy assets, while stable, may not always receive full market credit when bundled with slower- or faster-growing businesses under one roof.
Liberty Flour stressed that the review is still at an early stage and carries no guarantee of a transaction. Operations across all business units will continue as usual, and an external adviser has been appointed to guide the process—often a sign that the board is open to outcomes beyond the status quo.
Alongside the strategic review, the company also announced a board change. Director Daniel R. Maramba will step down effective January 28, 2026. To fill the vacancy, the board—upon the recommendation of its nominations and elections committee—elected Jamie Marie C. Ang to serve the remainder of Maramba’s term.
