Aboitiz Foods’ PT Gold Coin Indonesia has officially begun exporting its customised livestock feeds to Timor-Leste. This marks an expansion of the company’s regional reach and its commitment to serving more communities in Southeast Asia, according to the statement.
A trusted name in animal nutrition across Southeast Asia, PT Gold Coin Indonesia has officially begun exporting to Timor-Leste. The company highlights the initiative as an important step forward in its ongoing efforts to serve more communities across the region with quality animal feed and reliable technical support.
Initial discussions with partners in Timor-Leste began in late 2024, paving the way for the first shipments of customized animal feed to reach the city of Dili in July of 2025.
According to the announcement, Gold Coin will begin by supplying swine and poultry feeds, carefully formulated to meet the nutritional needs of livestock in Timor-Leste and aligned with local regulatory requirements. Distribution will be carried out through two trusted local trading partners.
Beyond products, Gold Coin will also offer quarterly seminars in collaboration with the Market Development Facility (MDF), an Australian Government-funded initiative that promotes sustainable economic development across the Indo-Pacific. These sessions aim to provide technical support and share best practices with local farmers and producers.
“This expansion into Timor-Leste reflects our steady commitment to nourishing growth across Asia,” said Siow Wee Lee, First Vice President & Country Director of Gold Coin Indonesia. “We see this as a meaningful opportunity to support local agricultural development by sharing both quality nutrition and technical expertise. Our team is focused on building partnerships that can grow sustainably over time.”
Gold Coin points to the milestone as a reinforcement of its partnership-driven approach to regional growth—anchored in deep market understanding and on-ground support. Gold Coin Malaysia also contributes to this broader effort, exporting aquafeeds to the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia and Oman, as well as to other Asian countries such as Sri Lanka, Brunei, and Singapore.
Regarding the milestone, the company stated, “As part of Aboitiz Foods, this move contributes to the group’s broader purpose of sustainably feeding Asia’s growth from mill to meal. Through expansions like this, we bring our vision to life; supporting farmers, strengthening food systems, and creating long-term value for communities across the region.”
