Cargill sells Malaysian feed maker to CAB Cakaran for US$54 million 

Cargill Inc. has agreed to sell its Malaysian animal feed producer to a local poultry farmer, as the world's largest agricultural commodities trader continues reorganising its global business.

The decision to sell came after a "thorough review of long-term" priorities, and the deal is expected to close by the end of November, according to a statement from Cargill.

A unit of CAB Cakaran Corporation will pay RM231 million (US$$54 million) in cash for the feed maker, a separate filing shows.

Cargill is undergoing a restructuring and streamlining into three main divisions — food, agriculture and trading — recently exiting from its Vietnam aquaculture business.

The Malaysian animal feed maker has the capacity to produce about 400,000 tonnes a year, according to the CAB statement.

CAB is an integrated poultry farming and food processing company with operations spanning across Peninsula Malaysia, according to its website.
