Thousands of job opportunities are set to open for Kapampangans as Tanika Philippines Corporation, a manufacturer of Pokémon stuffed toys and other licensed character merchandise, prepares to hire around 3,000 workers for its Clark-based manufacturing operations.

Company representatives met with Governor Lilia “Nanay” Pineda to coordinate with the Provincial Government of Pampanga on the large-scale recruitment initiative.

Tanika Philippines produces Pokémon plush toys exported to various countries and also manufactures products for globally recognized brands and organizations, including Tokyo Disney Resort, Studio Ghibli, Sun Arrow Co., Ltd., and Disney Stores in Japan and Shanghai.

The recruitment drive will be conducted in partnership with the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) Pampanga to provide more Kapampangans with employment opportunities.

The provincial government advised interested applicants to monitor the official PESO Pampanga page for recruitment schedules and application details.
