Vinda SEA was earlier this year named one of the foreign investors with the highest investments in Selangor in 2017/2018, and sees the investment of a new regional headquarters as an extension of its commitment to making Malaysia as Asia’s hub for hygiene products.

Located on a 27-acre site filled with greenery, the state-of-the-art regional headquarters will comprise a double-storey manufacturing plant with raw material warehouse, a finished goods warehouse, the Vinda Innovation Centre and a six-storey administration block to be implemented in phases, in line with Vinda’s five-year plan. The investment of more than half a billion ringgit over the next five years in multiple projects to set up the Vinda regional hub represents Vinda’s commitment to Malaysia and to the state of Selangor.

For the convenience of the employees, there will also be ample parking space, nursing rooms, a canteen and an open-air sky garden with pond. Vinda SEA is also committed to maintaining a small recreational park with sports facilities that is to be developed by Sime Darby in a neighbouring plot upon approval of the Majlis Perbandaran Klang, as part of its contribution to the community.

The ceremony was officiated by Ambassador Dag Juhlin-Dannfelt of Sweden to Malaysia. Those attending included Malaysian Investment Development Authority Executive Director of Manufacturing Development (Resource) Ismail Abu Bakar, Invest Selangor Industry Support Division Director Shahrul Azamin Abdullah, Vinda International Executive Chairman Li Chao Wang, Essity AB President and Chief Executive Officer Magnus Groth, and Vinda International Holdings Chief Executive Officer Johann Christoph Michalski.
