Operation of a 240,000-ton Annual Pig Feed Factory in Icheon Dodram Industrial Complex

DSPD Supplies to Over 200 Farms

A dedicated pig feed mixing plant with an annual production capacity of 240,000 tons is set to begin full-scale operation in Dodram General Industrial Complex, Jangcheon-ri, Seolseong-myeon, Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do.

Icheon City announced on the 11th that the plant registration for the pig feed mixing plant newly constructed by DSPD, the project operator of Dodram Industrial Complex, has been completed, and the plant will start operations.

DSPD is a subsidiary of Dodram Pig Farming Cooperative, known for the 'Dodram Handon' brand. It supplies feed to pig farms that are members of the cooperative and currently operates a feed plant in Jeongeup, Jeonbuk. The company invested approximately 30 billion KRW to build a plant with a total floor area of 7,102㎡ on a 25,682㎡ site within the industrial complex.

The Icheon plant will produce about 20,000 tons per month (240,000 tons annually) of pig-specific feed using HACCP-certified facilities and supply it to around 200 farms. Until now, pig farms in the metropolitan area cooperative members received feed through an OEM method, but with the completion of this plant, production will shift to direct manufacturing, which the company says is expected to improve quality and reduce costs.

Kim Kyung-hee, mayor of Icheon, said, "I hope that the establishment of a leading domestic feed specialist company will serve as a foundation for the co-growth of local pig farms by improving productivity and reducing costs." He added, "We will continue to make efforts to become a city with a business-friendly environment."
