Cargill expands specialty fats portfolio, starts expansion of Malaysia facility
To meet growing customer demand for specialty fats, Cargill has started construction on a $35 million expansion of its production facility in Port Klang, Malaysia. This is the first step in a multi-year, global investment expected to exceed US$100 million aimed to significantly expand the company’s global portfolio in specialty fats.
“Specialty fats are incredibly popular due to their versatility and functionality,” said Jennifer Shomenta, president and group leader for Cargill’s global edible oils solutions business. “With this investment, we’ll be better positioned to support our customers’ innovation journey, equipped with the building blocks necessary to co-create tailored solutions that align with their unique needs.”
