Indofood Sukses Makmur (INDF), one of Indonesia’s leading food manufacturing companies, plans to build a new factory for the production of flour to increase capacity and sales of its Bogasari unit. Bogasari is the company’s integrated flour milling unit. Franciscus Welirang, Director of Indofood Sukses Makmur, said the unit’s flour mills are currently producing close to their maximum capacity, hence production capacity expansion is needed.
The new flour mill will be constructed in Cibitung (West Java) by Indofood Sukses Makmur, part of the Salim Group. The company is currently arranging all required permits. Through the new mill, Indofood Sukses Makmur will add a total of 200,000 tons of flour (per year). Welirang did not mention the amount of capital that is required to build the mill.
Currently, Indofood Sukses Makmur owns two flour production facilities, one in Jakarta and one in Surabaya (East Java), with a grinding capacity of 10,450 tons and 6,000 tons per day, respectively.
