Hanuman Beverages Co Ltd has received the approval from Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) for a $160.6 million brewery to be built in Kandal province’s Ang Snuol district.
Hanuman has a microbrewery in Phnom Penh but is building a $160.6 million brewery in Kandal Province, Cambodia
The Cambodian Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation spokesman Oum Sotha told the Phnom Penh Post that “We’ll always support the creation of new factories, increasing business and employment for Cambodians both directly and indirectly."
He added, “Of course, beer products are not necessities, but if both domestic and foreign markets still demand them and [production] remains competitive, Cambodia should permit the further establishment of this type of business based on real investment. In addition to beverages, there are other non-alcoholic beverages we could look to support to further cut back imports – such as orange juice, fruit juice and pure drinking water."
