Alliance World Manufacturing Limited (AWML) subsidiary PT Alliance Consumer Products Indonesia (PTACPI) officially inaugurated Veda 3, its newest factory, within the Sei Mangkei Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Bosar Maligas District, Simalungun Regency, North Sumatra Province on Jan. 9, 2025. The state-of-the-art manufacturing facility is designed to meet global standards in terms of quality, efficiency, and sustainability.
In addition to supporting internal production needs, Veda 3 is targeted to meet the increasing market demand for soap products in the form of soap noodles and beads. The factory is expected to be able to create a significant amount of local jobs, thereby contributing to regional economic growth.
Veda 3's aims were conveyed by Anil Nagpal and Haris Agarwal, members of the PTCAPI Board of Directors, at its inauguration, which was also attended by the Indian Ambassador to Indonesia Sandeep Chakravorty, National SEZ Council Secretary-General Edwin Manansang, and the Indian Consul-General in Medan Ravi Shanker Goel.
In their remarks, Anil and Harish expressed their gratitude to all partners and stakeholders for the support they have provided so far.
"The inauguration of Veda 3 is an important step in our journey to continue to grow and innovate. The factory is a tangible proof of our commitment to excellence and sustainability," said Anil Nagpal in a written statement on Jan. 11, 2025.
PT Alliance Consumer Products Indonesia is optimistic that Veda 3 will play an important role in driving the company's expansion in both domestic and international markets. With the principle of sustainability as the core of its operations, this factory is projected to be able to set new standards in the manufacturing industry.
PTACPI started its operations in Indonesia after more than 20 years engaging in soap manufacturing in India. The construction of the company's Veda 3 was completed in a short time despite facing challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. After acquiring land for construction in September 2021, commercial production at Veda 3 successfully commenced by September 2022.
At present, PTACPI's Veda 1 factory has exported more than 650 million bars of soap to more than 50 countries worldwide. The company aimed to export 1 billion bars of soap by 2026. With more than 750 local workers currently employed, PTACPI is projected to employ 250 more workers for Veda 3. The company also affirms its commitment to continue investing in Indonesia, both in terms of infrastructure and human resources, in order to achieve greater growth in the future.
