Two new firms to push agro-industry
Four domestic and foreign companies have announced that they will form two joint stock companies to promote the agro-industry in Dong Nai Province.
The companies involved are Donataba of Dong Nai Province, Prudential Fund Managament, Proconco and Glon Group (France).
The first entity, which will be called the Development and Technology Joint Stock Company (DTJSC), will provide technical solutions in livestock breeding from breeds, foodstuff, technical training, breeding, slaughtering to consumption.
The second joint stock company is Agro-Park, which closely unites all the phases of the agro-industry from breeding and cultivation to processing and consuming. Agro-Park is the first-ever agro-industrial complex in Viet Nam, adapting the model "from farm to table" which the Glon group has done at Bretagne, France.
Besides, Agro-Park aims to help farmers with quality control, environmental improvements, and anti-pollution measures.
Alain Glon, chairman of the Glon group, said "With the experience of over 60 years in livestock breeding and processing, we are completely capable to make Dong Nai Province become a large center in the field in 20 years, just as what we have done for Bretagne in France."
A leader in France, the Glon group will bring to the project their technology, management skills and experiences.
Donataba general director Nguyen Thi Le Hong added: "Livestock breeding and processing in Viet Nam is now at the small and household scale. Meanwhile, the demand for safe and quality food is rising. Dong Nai Province has realised this. We are very glad to co-operate with the Glon group as well as our other partners, Prudential and Proconco."
The initial investment for Agro-Park is planned at VND500 billion.At present, there are two areas with a combined size of 1,780ha at Thong Nhat and Xuan Loc districts in Dong Nai Province, which are under consideration for the Agro-Park complex.
