SFI will hold 60% of the joint venture, while YKI will subscribe for 40% of the registered capital.

Further details on what food products the YKI and SFI joint venture will manufacture have not been disclosed. 

Wilmar said the deal will not have a material impact on its operating results. The consumer arm of the Singapore-bassed agribusiness giant has expanded its sales via joint ventures including, most recently, Vietnamese retailer Saigon Co-op to form a joint venture specialising in sauces and condiments.

Wilmar’s consumer-facing businesses also include Australia-based group Goodman Fielder.
