Charoen Pokphand Foods (CPF) has been honored in the 2025 Fortune Southeast Asia 500, being ranked 16th on the list.
The ranking methodology is based on publicly reported financial data, including revenue, profit and employment metrics.
The company says this achievement is a testament to the success of CPF’s strategic emphasis on “Sustainovation” — the approach for integrating sustainability with innovation and technology. This approach serves as a core driver of growth, resilience, and competitive advantage across Southeast Asia.
CPF is actively delivering on its vision of the “Kitchen of the World with Sustainovation”, applying world-class food safety standards and advanced agri-tech to create food solutions that are both health-conscious and environmentally responsible. Flagship initiatives like the “Thai Food – Mission to Space,” which saw CPF’s chicken certified to NASA’s space-grade food safety standards, demonstrate how Sustainovation supports both global competitiveness and national pride.
As the first food manufacturer globally has its short- and long-term net-zero targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), CPF is also accelerating climate action through the integration of digital technologies and renewable energy across its supply chain. From AI-powered livestock management and smart feed systems to low-emission packaging and green logistics, the company is advancing sustainability through every facet of its operations.
Compiled by Fortune, the Southeast Asia 500 ranks the region’s 500 largest companies based on publicly reported revenue for the fiscal year ending on or before December 31, 2024. CPF’s inclusion reflects not only strong financial performance but also its expanding regional presence and transformative approach to sustainable food production.
CPF is the world’s ninth largest poultry producer and 5th largest feed producer.
