Nestlé Commences Construction of Major Coffee Facility in Samut Prakan
Nestlé has officially broken ground on a new 23-billion-baht coffee manufacturing plant in Thailand, slated to open in 2028.
According to Khaosod English, Nestlé has initiated the construction of a significant new coffee manufacturing facility located at the Araya Industrial Estate in Samut Prakan. The project, referred to as the “House of NESCAFÉ Thailand,” represents a substantial investment of 23 billion baht, or approximately US$685 million.
For residents and those interested in the local economic landscape, this development is notable for its scale and potential impact on the regional labor market. The company anticipates that the factory will generate more than 500 new jobs once it becomes fully operational.
Construction is currently underway, with the facility expected to begin production in late 2028. While the groundbreaking ceremony marks a definitive start to the project, specific details regarding the facility's total production capacity and the exact range of coffee products to be manufactured for the domestic versus international markets remain to be confirmed by the company. This investment underscores a continued commitment to industrial growth within the Samut Prakan province.
