Verified EggBridge PH PartnerAbout 3LA & T Enterprises
3LA & T Enterprises is a Philippine trading, distribution, and logistics enterprise founded in 2021 by husband-and-wife entrepreneurs Ervin Joseph Hequilan Toyco and Leandy Villacastin.
The company began as a small-scale egg trading enterprise, sourcing eggs from farms in Bantayan Island, Cebu, and distributing them to customers and communities in surrounding areas. Over the years, the company gradually expanded its market, developed inter-island supply routes, diversified its product offerings, and established a network serving island communities across northern Cebu and nearby areas of Negros Occidental.
From its beginnings in egg trading, 3LA & T Enterprises developed its own approach to moving goods between farms, ports, mainland markets, and smaller island communities, eventually utilizing pumpboat-based transportation to establish recurring supply routes.
In the later stage of its development, the founders' experience in the egg industry led to the creation of EggBridge PH, an agricultural technology initiative founded by Ervin Joseph Hequilan Toyco.

From 3LA & T to EggBridge PH

For years, Ervin Joseph Hequilan Toyco had been involved in the movement of eggs from farms to customers. Through this experience, he observed the different stages through which eggs can pass before reaching the final buyer.
