American food conglomerate Cargill Inc. announced the opening of its first basemix plant in Mindanao to deliver consistently high-quality, nutritious and safe animal nutrition solutions composed of micro-ingredients to improve the health, immunity and growability of hogs and chickens.
The new facility is equipped with modern automated technologies with an annual capacity of 30,000 metric tons. It was built beside the Cargill Animal Nutrition and Health’s compound feed production facility in Villanueva, Misamis Oriental, which produces swine and poultry products for the region.
“Working closely with our customers and local communities, Cargill in the Philippines continues to identify and unlock opportunities to optimize our market footprint and realize our purpose to nourish the world in a safe, responsible and sustainable way,” said Cargill Philippines managing director for animal nutrition and health Sonny Catacutan.
“We are proud and excited to unveil our new basemix plant in Mindanao, a strategic decision that allows us to better serve our customers across the region with our latest animal nutrition offerings and solutions,” said Catacutan.
