Leading industrialised agri-food company Japfa announced earlier this month another successful delivery of more than 32,000 live chickens, corresponding to about 58.3 tons, via sea to Singapore from Indonesia.

The chickens were raised in Bintan by PT Ciomas Adisatwa, a subsidiary of PT Japfa Comfeed Indonesia Tbk, which in turn is a subsidiary of Japfa Ltd. This shipment follows the successful exports in May and July. With this shipment, a total of more than 91,000 live birds have been exported by Japfa to Singapore from Indonesia.

“With this shipment we take a further step towards the regular supply of fresh chicken to Singapore from Indonesia," said Tan Yong Nang, chief executive officer of Japfa. "As a leading industrialised agri-food player, with headquarters in Singapore, Japfa has the capacity to meet Singapore’s demand and standards for chicken and we are proud to contribute to the country's food security strategy by providing local consumers with quality products."

Japfa is one of the largest poultry producers in Indonesia and in the region. Today Japfa’s activities are critical to feeding people in Indonesia as the the company supplies approximately 20% of poultry products in the market.
