KUALA LUMPUR, June 15 (Bernama) — Fraser & Neave Holdings Bhd (“F&NHB” or “the Group”) launches its foray into the upstream fresh milk business with a groundbreaking ceremony of the Group’s integrated dairy farm in Gemas, Negeri Sembilan. This momentous milestone puts the Group on track to become one of the largest milk producers in Malaysia when its integrated farm reaches its Phase 1 full production at 100 million litres of fresh milk.
Spread over 2,726 hectares, the farm will eventually house 20,000 milking cows, producing 200 million litres of fresh milk yearly for the local and international markets. The processing and packaging line will be sited right next to the milking parlour, offering Malaysian consumers quality fresh milk at an affordable price. This will also help promote the growth of the local agricultural industry by fostering a skilled workforce and generating job opportunities in the dairy and agriculture industries.
