CHAROEN POKPHAND'S PROFIT EXPECTED TO REACH RP450 BILLION
Jakarta, Sept 17 (ANTARA) - PT Charoen Pokphand Indonesia expects its net profit this year to reach Rp450 billion.
The company's vice president director, Thomas Effendy, said at a fast-breaking gathering here on Tuesday evening the profit was expected to come from production and sale price increases.
He said the figures were obtained from production of animal feed that would reach two million tons, day-old chickens 480 million and processed chickens 28,000 tons.
"This year we plan to produce 2.3 million tons of animal feed while production of day old chickens is expected to rise 10 percent to around 528 millions. Processing chickens meanwhile will grow the highest or more than 50 percent every year. We are expecting production of processing chickens this year is around 42,000 tons," he said.
The animal feed producer has increased the capacity of its feedmills in Makassar and Lampung and expanded its breeding farm.
"The project of increasing the capacity of two feedmills in Makassar and Lampung has been completed and the mills are already operating," he said.
Thomas hoped the rise in sales prices would help the achievement of the net profit target. "The price of animal feed at present is around Rp3,000 per kilogram. Last year it was only around Rp2,000 per kilogram. The price of day-old chickens this year has risen to around Rp3,000 per head," he said.
With these factors in mind, he said, he hoped the company's consolidated earnings would reach Rp12 trillion this year or rise by 40 percent from Rp8.7 trillion last year.
