Foremost producer to make Thailand Asean export hub
Netherlands-based Royal FrieslandCampina, the producer of Foremost dairy products, plans to make Thailand its Asean export hub. The company expects income from Asia to be contributing half of its total revenue globally within five years, chief executive officer Roelof Joosten said on 7 June. He said Thailand was well placed to serve the emerging growth of the Asean region, particularly in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam. Therefore, the company will focus its investment here and transfer know-how and expertise to local farmers.
