ABC Bakery to build $4m factory
The Asia Bakery and Confectionery Pte, known as ABC Bakery, plans to build a factory by the year-end with total investment cost of US$4 million.
Speaking at a press conference in HCM City yesterday, Kao Sieu Luc, ABC Bakery's general director, said that $2 million of the total cost would be used to import equipment and technologies from the US.
The new factory will make more new products for the domestic and international markets.
"Our products are available in Japan, the UK and Australia, with an average of four bakery containers exported a month to Japan," Luc said.
He said their existing bakery factories were stretched to capacity, and that the company was applying for a permit to build its third factory.
At the event, the company also unveiled 10 new sandwich products for the domestic market.
Using a new production method, these new products have softer texture, better taste and longer-lasting aroma. They also have no preservatives, he said.
ABC Bakery currently has 34 bakery shops, of which five are located Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
Speaking to Viet Nam News, Luc said that the company planned to open five more stores in Phnom Penh, and then will expand its distribution system to Siem Reap, a major tourism hub in Cambodia.
Apart from focusing on improving and creating new products, the company has been upgrading its hygiene standards. It recently received an HACCP certificate for food-safety management
