The new asset will enhance LDC\u2019s capability to meet the growing demand for protein in China.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

BEIJING, China, 3 April 2018<\/strong> \u2013 LDC (China) Trading Company Limited announced today the completion of its acquisition of Sinarmas Natural Resources Foodstuff Technology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd, which owns and operates oilseeds crushing and refining facilities in the Lingang Economic Area within Tianjin\u2019s Binghai New Area district.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spanning a land area of some 300,000 m2, the newly acquired asset has a daily soybean crushing capacity of 4,000 tons for the production of soybean meal and crude soybean oil, and a daily refining capacity of 1,200 tons for the production of refined edible vegetable oil, complemented by bottling, filling and packaging lines, as well as storage facilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The transaction, which was agreed in November 2017 but remained subject to standard conditions, reflects LDC\u2019s confidence in China\u2019s dynamic agricultural processing sector. The company is a major supplier of soybeans to the domestic crush industry, and currently operates three soybean crushing facilities in Hebei, Jiangsu andGuangdong provinces, supplying soybean meal to major and local feed mill groups that produce animal feed, as well as edible oils for food companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gonzalo Ram\u00edrez Martiarena, Chief Executive Officer of Louis Dreyfus Company, commented, \u201cChina is a vital market for global agricultural trade and integral to LDC\u2019s long-term growth ambitions. This latest acquisition is a positive response to the Chinese government\u2019s encouragement for more foreign direct investment in the agricultural processing sector, and fully aligned with our corporate strategy of strengthening our presence in majordestination markets and bolstering our foothold in the Group\u2019s core businesses.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

James Zhou, Head of North Asia Region at Louis Dreyfus Company added, \u201cWith our expanded Oilseeds portfolio in China, we are committed to providing the domestic market with high quality products that will help to meet growing consumption, especially the demand for protein and refined oil. As we continue to drive optimal performance across all our assets and offices with our well-honed expertise in business, risk and talent management, we look forward to partnering with local peers to create growth opportunities as well as to promote the productivity and innovation of the Chinese agricultural industry as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
