Singapore, 29 September 2026 – Cargill plans to invest more than US$130 million over the next two years in poultry operations across Thailand and the Philippines, expanding capacity and strengthening supply reliability as demand for processed protein grows. The headline amount is a regional programme, not a commitment solely to Thailand. It spans processing technology, storage, feed production and farm networks, giving the investment several distinct execution milestones.

In Thailand, the company plans a new automated cooked-chicken line at its Saraburi poultry plant, with completion expected in 2028. The investment also includes technology upgrades and the use of artificial intelligence in data processing, according to the company’s announcement. Those systems are intended to improve operating decisions and food-quality controls, although the financial return will depend on actual throughput, utilisation and customer demand once the equipment enters service.
