KAMPONG SPEU PROVINCE, Cambodia – Long Grain Co. Ltd (“Long Grain” or the “Company”) is revolutionizing the rice production and distribution industry with the introduction of its world-class milling facility. Strategically located in the Kampong Speu Province of Cambodia, this state-of-the-art 68,809 sq meter mill will significantly boost production capabilities. Long Grain aims to increase its annual production from 33,000 tons to an impressive 200,000 tons by 2025. The company is also considering expanding into other sectors such as rice milk, rice cakes, grain spirit, and rice oil.

Long Grain is committed to environmental sustainability and collaborates closely with local growers to promote water preservation, biodiversity enhancement, and soil health improvement. The company’s dedication to excellence and its vision for the future have positioned it as a rising industry leader.

Cambodia has become a key player in the global rice industry, with its rice sector accounting for over 70% of its agricultural cropped areas. Additionally, Cambodian rice contributes approximately 50% to the nation’s agricultural output. Over the past two decades, the Cambodian rice market has witnessed significant growth, with surplus production being exported to major international markets, particularly in Europe. Acknowledging this upward trend, the Government of Cambodia has implemented policy reforms to foster rice production and establish Cambodian rice as a prominent player in the global market. Long Grain, given its advanced facility and operational capabilities, is well-positioned to capitalize on this growth and deliver unmatched value to its customers and stakeholders.

CEO of Long Grain, Sanjay Dvir, states, “Our new facility embodies the solution to the increasing global rice demand, incorporating automation and state-of-the-art design. We express our gratitude to the supportive Cambodian government and reiterate our commitment to strengthen our market presence and sustain long-term growth.”

The global demand for rice is soaring, with the U.S. Department of Agriculture predicting a production increase to 520.9 million tons in 2023/24. This growth translates to an estimated market value of $271.04 billion by 2028. As Cambodia’s rice exports surge, Long Grain is poised to become a significant player in the industry, further propelled by the Government of Cambodia’s policies on the Promotion of Paddy Production and Rice Export.

Long Grain’s core values lie in the pursuit of quality, sustainability, and community enrichment. The company maintains the ISO 9000 certification for its rigorous quality processes, and its facility adheres to the FDA’s Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), enabling it to export immediately to the Americas. Long Grain offers a wide range of rice products, including Jasmine, Senkro Orub rice, and other varieties, catering to diverse end-users.
