INDUSTRY :
|
FOOD & BEVERAGES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Agricultural output will be further boosted by the projected increase in food
production resulting from the various incentives and development programmes
mounted by the government to reduce the high food import bill as well as to
raise farmers' income through diversification into high value food crops
and farming, including aquaculture, floriculture and cultivation of
medicinal plants.
|
|
During the January to November 2007, domestic food manufacturing surged by
7.9%. The food and beverage sector remains dynamic with the opening of new
international and local food chains and outlets throughout the country. The
industry's potential has also attracted the interest of investors in
hospitality-linked companies including the introduction of a new budget
hotel chain patterned after the concept of budget airlines.
|
|
Agricultural produces for food is one of the main thrusts of the Government
towards country's self-sufficiency, and also as a major contributor to the
country's development. The objective is expected to be achieved through
concerted efforts to reduce food imports and fully utilise the nation's
resources. Imports of meat products currently stand at about RM2 billion
annually.
|
|
In addition, turning Malaysia into a halal food hub is still on the
agenda, which partly supports the positive outlook on the domestic food
industry; this is a niche market that is not seen to be vulnerable to the
effects of an economic slowdown in the US. Meanwhile, another area that has
experienced growth and is poised to expand further this year is the
processing and preservation of fish and fish products.
|
|
The Government has identified the processed food industry as one of the
major growth sectors of the economy under the Ninth Malaysia Plan (9MP).
Under the 9MP, the food commodities subsector is expected to grow at an
average rate of 7.6% per annum through improvements in efficiency and
productivity as well as expansion in hectarage. Exports of food commodities
will be increased to achieve a positive food trade balance. The production
of 'padi' will be increased to meet the target of self-sufficiency level of
90%. The production of fruits will be undertaken on a large-scale in the
fruit production zones using the cluster development approach and
concentrating on nine fruit species which have export potential. The
production of vegetables will focus on high value varieties for local
consumption and selected export markets. The Green Book Programme to
promote cultivation of food crops at the community level will be
reactivated.
|
|
The Government has approved an allocation of RM11.4 billion representing an
increase of 70% compared with the Eighth Plan allocation for the sector.
Among the objectives of the plan are large-scale commercial farming and
greater application of modern technology and ICT to produce higher
value-added processed food and food products.
|
|
Note : The Ninth Malaysia Plan (9MP) was tabled in Parliament on March 31,
2006, is the five-year blueprints within the new National Mission policy
and implementation framework from now until 2010. Malaysia is expected to
see some structural changes and improved performance in the economy

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

COMMENTS
|
Incorporated in 1976, the SC is principally involved in trading in flavours,
fragrances and food chemicals. With its long track record in the industry,
the SC should have established good rapport with its customers to keep its
business going. A paid up capital of RM2.65 million allows the SC to expand
its business comfortably. We considered that the SC's business position in
the market is much dependent on the abilities of its shareholders.
|
|
In an effort to strengthen its position in the market, the SC had expanded
its business into the global market such as Singapore. Hence, the SC has
diversified its business risk and increased its profitability via
penetrating into the overseas market. Today, the SC has a work force of 40
employees in the operations. Its management capability is considered
average.
|
|
We are unable to comment on the SC's financial standing due to
unavailability of its latest financial statements.
|
|
We noted that the SC's supplies are from both the local and overseas
market. Hence the SC is exposed to foreign exchange risk.
|
|
Based on our database, the SC is clear of litigation.
|
|
The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain
in the near future. With the promising outlook of the industry, the SC's
business potential should be favourable. Its long presence in the market
should give the SC an edge to compete in the market.
|
|
In view of the above, we recommend credit be granted to the SC under
guarantee.
