- Its Premix Plant Scheduled to Start Operation in 2027 -
TOKYO, July 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NIPPN CORPORATION (hereinafter "NIPPN"), based in Tokyo's Chiyoda-ku, will establish a local subsidiary, NIPPN Vietnam Company Limited (hereinafter "NIPV"), in Dong Nai Province in the southern part of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (hereinafter "Vietnam") in order to expand sales of the NIPPN Group's products for commercial use in the ASEAN region. Vietnam will be the fifth country for NIPPN group to enter.
With a GDP growth rate of 5.05% in 2023, Vietnam has recovered from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and furthermore, the economy is expected to continue expanding steadily in the future. Since Vietnam's population has surpassed 100 million and the average age of its citizens is young, in their early 30s, Vietnam is also expected to grow in the medium to long term.
The NIPPN Group has been steadily expanding its business in the ASEAN region. In Thailand, NIPPN established NIPPN FOODS CORPORATION (THAILAND) LTD. in 1996 as a sales company with R&D functions, and completed construction of a premix plant in 2008. Furthermore, in Indonesia, NIPPN established PT NIPPN FOODS INDONESIA in 2014, and started operation of a premix plant in 2023. By establishing a new plant in Vietnam, NIPPN will strengthen its supply system within the ASEAN region to ensure a more stable supply, and will also strengthen its business in Vietnam. In addition, NIPV also plans to open a sales office in Ho Chi Minh City.
NIPPN defines overseas businesses as one of the growth fields in its FY2023-2027* medium-term targets, and aims to achieve 200% growth in international net sales over FY2024. With this new business development, NIPPN will further ensure its efforts to achieve its medium-term targets. This new entry into Vietnam will further ensure NIPPN's initiatives to achieve its medium-term targets.
*NIPPN's fiscal year FY2023 refers to the period from April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023.
Other fiscal years will follow the same way.
