Agricultural supplier Progress has recently started up a new facility in the far south of Johor, Malaysia. The official opening happened just before Livestock Asia, at October 26.
The new over 9,000 m2 facility, which includes a factory, warehouse and offices, will be producing six swine premixes, along with four poultry premixes and four dual purpose swine and poultry premixes.
In addition, the company manufactures a range of fibre glass silos ranging in capacity from 4 to 16 tonnes, along with a fibre glass water tank which has a capacity of almost 22,000 litres.

The company is one of the largest agricultural suppliers in Malaysia and is made up of three divisions: Livestock Equipment, Biopharma and Animal Nutrition. The company is an agent for several global agricultural players as well.
The group has a total of 75 employees, many of whom work on-farm, installing equipment and erecting feed silos. (Stuart Lumb)
