Chiang Mai, Thailand – In a bold move to strengthen its position in Thailand’s growing food industry, Mr. Shubhodeep Prasanta Das, CEO of HYLIFE Group, has announced the launch of a 400 million Baht food processing plant in Chiang Mai. Hylife Global Food installs the main pillar to construct a factory in Doi Lor, Chiang Mai. The investment marks one of the group’s most ambitious projects to date, promising to create jobs, boost regional agriculture, and set new standards for sustainable food production.
A Vision for Growth and Sustainability
Mr. Shubhodeep Das’s decision to build the plant in Chiang Mai is rooted in the region’s rich agricultural resources and strategic location. “Chiang Mai is the heart of northern Thailand’s agricultural economy,” he stated during the groundbreaking ceremony. “Our goal is to harness this potential while ensuring farmers and local suppliers benefit directly from our expansion.”
The plant will process a wide range of products, from fresh produce and frozen goods to ready-to-eat meals for both domestic and export markets. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology, it will meet international food safety standards and emphasize eco-friendly operations.
Boosting Thailand’s Food Export Capacity
Thailand is already recognized as a global food exporter, but Mr. Shubhodeep Das believes there is still room for growth in premium and value-added products. The Chiang Mai facility will serve as a hub for innovation, developing healthier, longer-lasting products for overseas markets.
With access to improved cold-chain logistics and modern packaging solutions, HYLIFE Group aims to increase its export volume by 25% within the first two years of operations. This aligns with Thailand’s national strategy to position itself as the “Kitchen of the World.”
Partnerships and Innovation
HYLIFE Group is collaborating with local universities to research new processing methods, extend product shelf life naturally, and improve nutritional content. The company is also exploring smart farming technologies, which could help suppliers monitor crop growth through sensors and reduce the need for harmful chemicals.
To ensure long-term sustainability, HYLIFE Group will implement a farmer contract program, guaranteeing stable prices and purchase volumes, thereby reducing income uncertainty for rural households.
A Milestone for HYLIFE Group’s Corporate Journey
For Mr. Shubhodeep Das, the plant is not just a business investment—it is a statement of the group’s long-term commitment to northern Thailand. Over the past decade, HYLIFE Group has evolved from a small local operation into a national brand, known for quality products and strong community engagement.
“This is a milestone,” Mr. Shubhodeep Das concluded. “It reflects our dedication to innovation, our respect for the people who make our products possible, and our belief in building a better future for both business and community.”
Looking Ahead
Construction of the Chiang Mai food processing plant is expected to be completed within 18 months, with trial production beginning shortly thereafter. Industry analysts are already predicting that HYLIFE Group’s move will encourage more private sector investment in the region, sparking further economic growth.
By combining modern technology, sustainable practices, and a community-first approach, Mr. Shubhodeep Das and HYLIFE Group are not only expanding their business—they are reshaping the future of food production in Chiang Mai and beyond.
