Progression
Raf Beeren, deputy managing director, Hypor sees the introduction of his company’s genetics into the Vietnamese market as a natural progression of market share growth in Asia.
“Building on our experiences in Japan, the Philippines, South Korea, Thailand and China, we have a long history for developing partnerships with successful integrators in this region and Japfa Comfeed has an equally distinguished record in animal feed manufacturing, chicken breeding, poultry processing and aquaculture farming throughout the region,” said Beeren.
Ambitious
Vietnam’s agriculture sector and specifically its pork production targets are most ambitious with analysts predicting more than a 40% increase in production in the next three years. The country currently has the world’s fourth largest sow population.
Dr Kuswanto, senior vice president, Japfa Comfeed Vietnam, sees unlimited opportunities for both Hypor and Japfa in this market. He is targeting one million tonnes of annual feed production for the project by 2015.
