The chairman of C.P. Group expressed his sincere thanks to the Vietnamese government and the prime minister for consistently creating amenable investment conditions and supporting the group through its development in the country over the past 32 years. C.P. Group has committed to continue to develop here and make Vietnam a hub for smart manufacturing centre in ASEAN through innovation, technology and sustainability practices.

"Following the CPV Food chicken processing complex in Binh Phuoc province, CPV will expand its production and business activities, providing C.P. products to all markets in the region and around the world," said Chearavanont.

Chearavanont shared the company's strategic vision to make CPV a pioneering enterprise, leading and developing in food production and processing, and expanding export markets globally. They are also developing its staff, especially the Vietnamese leadership team, to make deeper contributions to the Vietnamese economy in the new era.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh spoke of his appreciation for the contributions of C.P. Group to the Vietnamese economy. The Prime Minister asserted that agriculture continues to be an important pillar in the national development strategy, not only for the present but also for the next 100 years. Vietnam aims to develop agriculture based on high technology, sustainable ecology, civilised farmers and modern countryside.

The PM emphasised that the socioeconomic development of the nation cannot happen without agriculture. "The activities of CPV in agriculture and the food industry are aligned with the government's vision and will play an important role in the transformation of national agriculture," he said.

Chinh called on CPV to partner with the government in driving double-digit GDP growth through high-tech adoption, digital transformation, value chain optimisation, and long-term raw material contracts, while boosting domestic agricultural processing.

"We will continue to support and accompany farmers and livestock breeders in building a closed-loop chain model from production to deep processing and export, thereby contributing to the construction of a modern, internationally integrated and environmentally friendly agriculture," said Chinh.
