El mercado de alimentos elaborados en Malasia
The Malaysian food manufacturing sector continues to see steady growth. As the industry expands, emphasis and investment are placed on innovation of shelf stable products to meet growing domestic and regional demand. Malaysia is increasingly becoming a regional hub for processing and exports. Additionally, newly signed agreements like the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) will broaden Malaysia’s access to markets like Canada, Mexico, and Peru. The country is highly dependent on imports for raw materials for food processing such as wheat, dairy, and other food ingredients. As the industry increases output it will likewise need to augment sourcing for raw materials.
Currently, inputs and raw materials for the Malaysian food processing industry are imported from a range of suppliers. Australia and New Zealand supply the majority of the ingredient products for the dairy processing plants, while China and Thailand are the top suppliers of poultry and processed fruits. The United States is a major supplier of dairy, the largest for whey, and processed vegetables.
