Lee Tae Ki, general director of biological resource business of CJ CheilJedang (Korea), said that Vietnam has been selected as the most important strategic investment area of CJ group. The group has been concentrating its resources on investment and development in Vietnam. CJ Group is dedicated to maximising investment to achieve the medium and long-term plan of the Great CJ Plan 2020.

CJ Group wishes to become a global company that always accompanies customers and actively contributes to the development of the livestock industry in general and the animal feed sector of Vietnam in particular.

The group brings customers the best products and services by continuously transferring to Vietnam the technical know-how of the specific industry and animal feed production in Korea. At the same time, CJ is committed to maximising its efforts, acquiring customer feedback, continually learning, concentrating on all resources so as not to subdue customer expectations, while promoting cooperation and strategic relations.
