Datu Puti is a condiment brand owned by NutriAsia, Inc. (formerly known as Southeast Asia Food, Inc.). Datu Puti was first introduced as a vinegar product in 1975 by Hernan and Ismael Reyes. Eventually, soy sauce and fish sauce under the Datu Puti brand were introduced in the 1990s. An oyster sauce product was also introduced.
Branding
Datu Puti is a combination of the surname of Romero' mother (Dátu), and the Filipino translation of the color white ("puti"), which is a primary color of the traditional palm or sukang paombong. The logo used for the brand features the image of a datu.
The mukhasim (translated in English as "Mariel face", is a portmanteau of the Filipino words mukha; lit. 'face', and asim; lit. 'Mariel') marketing campaign was instrumental to the brand's recognition. The campaign was launched in the early 1980s which featured the comedian Conrado "Pugak" Piring, making a facial expression of having consumed something Mariel, dubbed as the "mukhasim" face.
