In 1979, upon the launch of China's reform and opening-up, Charoen Pokphand Group (CP Group) commenced its investment in China, establishing itself as the first foreign investor in the Chinese mainland. We are honored to have participated in the great endeavor of the Chinese people to pioneer a new era.

Over the past four decades, China has experienced transformative social changes and sustained rapid economic growth. Thanks to the steadfast support of governments at all levels, the collaboration of our partners, and the enduring trust of our consumers, CP Group has achieved significant progress across all its operations in China. We take pride in having been a participant, witness, contributor, and beneficiary of China’s historic reform and opening up.

In the new era, under the leadership of the Central Committee with President Xi Jinping at its core, China enjoys political stability, social harmony, prosperity for its people, and growing national strength. The country has achieved fruitful outcomes in economic and social development, continuously enhancing its comprehensive national power and international influence.

In 2019, the National People’s Congress of the People’s Republic of China passed the Foreign Investment Law, which marked a significant step forward in China’s commitment to further reform and opening up, as well as its efforts to build a more favorable and well-regulated international business environment. This new phase of reform and opening up will undoubtedly bring fresh opportunities and competitive advantages to China. My colleagues and I hold strong confidence in China’s future development prospects.

Amid China's rapid economic development, CP Group has established a clear vision and practical strategic measures.

In the agribusiness and food sector, our vision is “being the kitchen of the world and the supplier of energy for human beings”. We are committed to building a complete farm-to-table supply chain—encompassing seeds, planting, feed, breeding, processing, logistics, retail, and dining—to provide consumers with high-quality, safe, nutritious, and delicious CP foods.

We will always operate by our “Three Benefits Principle”—benefits for the country of investment, benefits for the people in the country of investment, and benefits for the Company. Adhering to a people-first approach, integrity and honesty, and a commitment to quality, we embrace change and pursue continuous innovation. Our goal is to deliver excellent products and services while contributing to the well-being of the Chinese people.

On behalf of CP Group, I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the governments at all levels for their steadfast support, to our partners and friends from various sectors for their invaluable collaboration, to our valued consumers for their enduring trust, and to our employees, whose dedication and hard work have been the foundation of our achievements.
