OVERALL PERFOMANCE

 

 

Initially named P.T. NAARDEN INDONESIA, the company was established in June 1968 with an authorized capital of US$ 560,000 issued capital of US$ 420,000 of which US$ 42,000 was paid up. Founders and original shareholders are N.V. CHEMICHE FABRIEK NAARDEN of the Netherlands and P.T. MANTRUST, a private company. The company notary deed has subsequently been revised for several times. In June 1996, its name changed into P.T. QUEST INTERNATIONAL INDONESIA (P.T. QII). In June 1997, the authorized capital was increased to US$ 15,000,000 issued capital to US$ 8,000,000 wholly paid-up. On the same occasion, its entire shares were taken over by NAARDEN INTERNATIONAL N.V. of the Netherlands and P.T. AMERTA RATUSAKTI, a private company. On 12 September 2005, P.T. AMERTA RATUSAKTI sold its whole shares to ERGON INVESTMENT INTERNATIONAL LTD., and Mr. Koentoro Wreksoatmojo, an indigenous businessman. The deed of amendment was made by Mr. Singgih Susilo, SH., a public notary in Jakarta under Company Registration Number C2-9213.HT.01.04.TH.1997, dated September 9, 1997.

 

P.T. QII acquired a Foreign Investment (PMA) license issued by Capital Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) to deal with Essence, Flavors and Fragrance manufacturing whose plant located at Jalan Jakarta Bogor Km. 35, Cimanggis, East Jakarta on a land of 9,000 sq. meters. The plant has been operating in 1973 and underwent several expansion to increasing production capacity. At present, the plant has a capacity to annually produce 10,000 tons of essence, flavor and fragrance. The plant has absorbed an investment of US$ 8.1 million, come from owned capital of US$ 8.0 million and reinvested profit of US$ 0.1 million. That around 60% of its products are marketed domestically to various cosmetic, perfume and  household cleaning agent manufacturing firms including P.T. UNILEVER INDONESIA, P.T. RUDI SOETADI & CO., P.T. MARTINA BERTO, P.T. MUSTIKA RATU, P.T. KIMIA FARMA etc., and the rest  is exported to Australia, the Philippines and several other European countries. P.T. QII’s operation has evidently been running smoothly and growing.

 

The demand for ingredients and food ingredients and food seasoning products has kept on rising by 10% to 12% per annum in the last three years in line with the sustained growth in food and beverage processing industry in Indonesia as well as the improving of population income. The demand growth will go on rising by 10% per annum in the next three years. Market competition is very sharp considering many other similar imported products offering on the local markets. P.T. QII in this case is not doing very badly on account of it has built a fairly close connection with several leading food and beverages, cosmetics processing plants in Indonesia. We are sure that P.T. QII has high ability to further expand its business in the future.

 

Until this time P.T. QII has not been registered with Indonesian Stock Exchange, so that they shall not obliged to announce their financial statement. We observed that total sales turnover of the company in 2005 amounted to Rp. 305.0 billion, increased to Rp. 310.0 billion in 2006 to Rp. 315.0 billion in 2007 and estimated to go on rising by at least 7% in 2008. We estimated the company gained a net profit at least Rp. 20.4 billion in 2007 and the company has an estimated total networth at least Rp. 149.0 billion.

 

We observe that P.T. QII is supported by foreign partner with has financially strong behind it. So far, we did not hear that the company having been black listed by the Central Bank (Bank Indonesia). The company usually pays its debts punctually to suppliers.  

 

The management of P.T. QII is led by Mrs. Benjie Elizalde (37) a professional manager with has 9 years of experience in essence, flavor and fragrance manufacturing and trade. Daily operation, she is assisted by Mrs. Dra. Rina Adianti Suherman (38) as director. The management is quite creative and dynamic, having maintained a wide business relation with private businessmen at home and abroad and with the government sectors as well. We observed that management’s reputation in said business is fairly good. So far, we did not hear that the company’s management involved in a dirty business practice or detrimental cases that settled in the country. The company’s litigation record is clean and it has not registered with the black list of Bank of Indonesia. P.T. QUEST INTERNATIONAL INDONESIA is sufficiently fairly good for business transaction. However, in view of the unstable economic condition in the country we recommend to treat prudently in extending a loan to the company.
