Charoen Pokphand Foods Public Company Limited (CPF), a company of the CP Group, is the leading agro-industrial and food conglomerate in Thailand and Asia Pacific region. The Company operates in both the livestock (swine, broilers, layers, and ducks) and aquaculture (shrimp and fish) businesses. The vertically integrated businesses incorporate the manufacturing of animal feed, animal breeding and animal farming; meat processing, the manufacturing of semi-cooked meat and fully-cooked meat; food products and ready meal products, as well as the meat and food retailer and restaurant businesses.
The Company has set up a central purchasing unit which is responsible for the procurement of major ingredients used in the production of feed. The main ingredients for feed production are agricultural products such as corn, soybean meal, fishmeal, wheat flour, etc. The Company’s procurement policy does not encourage the monopolized purchasing of raw materials from any particular traders. Additionally, the purchases must be conducted with strict adherence to the related standards regarding the source and quality of raw materials, the Company’s corporate social responsibility policy, environmental policy and costs that are competitive in the industry. The central purchasing unit acts as a center for information collection both locally and internationally. The Company’s procurement policy also accords priority to domestic raw material producers, particularly those situated in close proximity to our feed-mill plants. This is to support local farmers, as well as to minimize transport costs. Only when domestic supply is insufficient, or is of inferior quality, would the Company resort to the importation of raw materials. Learn More |
