FAQs

Common questions about COMARK, our history, and the way we serve Filipino families and partners.

The Cymar Group of Companies traces its roots to June 10, 1971, when Cirimar Laboratories, Inc. was founded — beginning the Group's journey in the manufacture of pharmaceutical and galenical products. Over five decades of continuous growth followed, making the Cymar Group one of the Philippines' most established consumer goods organizations today.

The Cymar Group is in the business of manufacturing and distributing quality consumer products for Filipino homes. Our portfolio spans baby care, household cleaning, cosmetics and personal care, and allied pharmaceutical products — developed, manufactured, and delivered through our network of companies and distribution partners across the country.

The Cymar Group of Companies is composed of four subsidiaries, each with a distinct role:

  • Cirimar Laboratories, Inc. — Manufactures pharmaceutical, galenical, and consumer products
  • Cymar International, Inc. — Manages brand development and product importation
  • COMARK International Corporation — Handles marketing and nationwide distribution
  • Gonzalo International, Inc. — Manufactures feeding bottles and feeding nipples with proprietary designs

Together, these companies cover the full chain from product development and manufacturing to distribution and retail.

The Cymar Group manages a portfolio of nine trusted consumer brands:

  • Nurture — Premium baby feeding and accessorie, Baby wipes, cotton buds, and petroleum jelly
  • Babyjoy — Baby essentials
  • ZIM — Household cleaning products
  • Orchid — Home deodorizers and air care
  • BEST — Cleaning pads, scrubbers, and cleansing wipes
  • CL — Personal care and antiseptic solutions
  • My Nails — Nail care essentials
  • Medicross — Pharmaceutical antiseptic solutions

Our products are widely available across the Philippines — in supermarkets, department stores, groceries, sari-sari stores, and wet markets in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. You can also find our products through our official stores on Shopee and Lazada.

The Cymar Group serves Filipino consumers across five product categories: Baby Care, Household Cleaning, Cosmetics and Personal Care, Allied Pharma, and Galenical products. We supply both household and institutional markets — from individual consumers to clinics, pharmacies, and commercial establishments.

We are a proudly Filipino, family-founded company with over 55 years of industry experience. What sets us apart is our integrated structure — we don't just distribute products, we develop them, manufacture them, and bring them to every corner of the Philippines through our own nationwide network. Every brand we carry is backed by a commitment to quality, safety, and accessibility for every Filipino family.

Yes. Two of our Group subsidiaries are dedicated to manufacturing:


  • Cirimar Laboratories, Inc. manufactures pharmaceutical, galenical, and consumer goods products including our CL, Medicross, and Nails product lines.

Yes. The Cymar Group has developed and continues to build its own in-house brand portfolio. ZIM, Orchid, Babyjoy, CL, My Nails, and Medicross are all Group-developed brands. Nurture is a brand distributed exclusively for the Philippine market. Each brand was built with a specific consumer need in mind and is supported from product development through to retail.

Yes. COMARK International Corporation was established in 1992 specifically as the Group's marketing and distribution arm. Today, our products reach every major retail channel across the Philippines — through Verstar Marketing Inc. and regional distribution partners covering Naga, Pangasinan, Davao, CDO, Palawan, Cebu, and Iloilo — ensuring our brands are available wherever Filipino families shop.

Quality is at the core of everything we do. Our manufacturing facilities operate under strict quality standards, and our products undergo rigorous testing before reaching shelves. Key quality commitments across our portfolio include:

  • BPA-Free certification for all baby care feeding products
  • European CE Certification for feeding bottles and accessories
  • Australian Standard Compliance for selected baby care products
  • Dermatologically Tested formulations for our wipes and personal care products
  • Clinically Tested standards for our cotton buds and hygiene products

Our mission also includes the institutionalization of quality systems and processes across all operations — ensuring that every product that carries a Cymar Group brand meets the standards our customers expect.

We aim to be excellent at everything we do — and to become the leading manufacturer and distributor of baby care, consumer, and household products in the Philippines. We will get there by continuing to build trusted brands, expanding our distribution reach, and staying true to our commitment: bringing quality everyday products to every Filipino home, at the right price.
