The fourth production line will help Barry Callebaut meet an increased demand for #chocolate in Southeast Asia
As the plant unveils the new production line, it shows off new state of the art equipment that has the ability to produce #chocolate blocks of different volumes, all at a high-efficiency rate.
Adding to its high performance, the fourth line also boasts higher quality and safety standards, both of which are crucial aspects of food production.
In addition to the first three #chocolate lines in Singapore, the fourth production line helps Barry Callebaut meet increased demand from Southeast Asian countries, South Korea and beyond.
Barry Callebaut is proud to produce high-quality #chocolate products that customers in the Region have come to trust, ranging from gourmet, artisanal, products to food manufacturers’ treats.
Together, these developments allow the factory to meet the growing demands of customers, new and old.
A focused eye on investments since 1997
Since this factory was built 23 years ago in Senoko, located in the northern part of Singapore, it has been instrumental in growing the presence of Barry Callebaut in the region. Not only is this plant the #1 industrial #chocolate factory in Singapore with the highest volume, it is also the biggest #chocolate factory in Asia Pacific for Barry Callebaut.
After the opening of this #chocolate factory in 1997, the Barry Callebaut Group has made multiple significant investments in the country. This includes the acquisition of Singapore-listed Delfi Cocoa in 2013, and making major investments in another new line and a warehouse in Fiscal Year 2015/16. The regional headquarters of Barry Callebaut and a #chocolate ACADEMY™ Center are also located in Singapore.
This milestone of the new fourth line comes hand in hand with other investments within the Asia Pacific Region. Recently, Barry Callebaut announced its decision to acquire GKC Foods in Australia and the groundbreaking of a new #chocolate factory in India.
The company is the largest producer of #chocolate and cocoa products in Asia Pacific and today runs 10 #chocolate and cocoa factories across Asia, namely in China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, and Singapore. Barry Callebaut supplies many thousand tonnes of #chocolate every year in this region to global and local food manufacturers, artisanal and professional users of #chocolate, such as chocolatiers, pastry chefs, bakers, hotels, restaurants, and caterers
