Global agribusiness giant Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC)’s joint venture in China with Donlink Holding Group (Donlink) and Guangdong HAID Group (HAID) has completed the first phase of its new food industrial park in Guangzhou.
The 180,000m² industrial park in Nansha would be operated by Fuling Food Technology, a joint venture set up by the three companies in 2020, LDC said on 27 September.
Located at the centre of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the facility comprises a feed protein mill with 1.8M tonnes/year of soyabean processing capacity, a 360,000 tonnes/year vegetable oil refining mill and a high-end cooking oil production line with a 240,000 tonnes/year of bottling capacity.
The site also includes a packaged cooking oil warehouse, a lecithin production line, soyabean oil tanks and a soyabean meal warehouse.
The facility would focus on developing and producing plant-based food products and ingredients, LDC said.
“Against the backdrop of China’s Greater Bay Area development, Donlink is pleased to work with partners to transform the traditional grains and oils processing business,” Donlink Group board member Guanghao Lai said.
Donlink comprises three major business lines: Donlink Grains and Oils; Donlink Machinery and Donlink Investment.
HAID Group has five business segments: feed; seedlings; animal protection; animal breeding and food.
