Givaudan, a global leader in Taste & Wellbeing, announced the ground-breaking of its new, state-of-the-art production facility in Cikarang, Indonesia, reinforcing its commitment to the South East Asia region. The new site, which will complement the existing facility in Indonesia, represents an initial investment of CHF 50 million and will span 24,000 square metres within a total reserved land area of 50,000 square metres to accommodate future expansion plans. It will focus on producing a wide range of savoury, sweet, and snack powders, as well as infant nutrition solutions.
Louie D'Amico, president Taste & Wellbeing, said, “The new facility in Cikarang marks a significant investment in Indonesia, reinforcing our commitment to expanding Givaudan’s manufacturing footprint in the South East Asia region. As market leaders, this expansion also enables us to seize growth opportunities through closer collaboration with our customers.”
Set for substantial growth over time, the site is positioned to significantly expand in size over time, as the company continues to invest in cutting-edge technologies and production processes. This strategic facility will enhance its presence in the region, bringing production closer to its customers and providing innovative solutions to meet the increasing demand while contributing to local economic development.
The new production facility will create around 60 jobs across diverse skill sets and drive a health-focused community programme, highlighting the company’s commitment to fostering local talent and the sustainable growth of Indonesia’s economy.
Christina Yeo, head of operations APAC, said, “At Givaudan, we are dedicated to purposeful growth. This ground-breaking ceremony represents a significant milestone, strengthening our production capabilities to co-create exceptional food experiences with our customers. By expanding our manufacturing footprint and enriching the communities we operate in, we continue to thrive on all fronts.”
