Firm keen to build a factory in America
SCG Packaging Plc (SCGP) is planning to invest in the rigid packaging business in America, aiming to build a production facility there to reduce the impact of US President Donald Trump's tariff policy.
The company is conducting a feasibility study on the investment and will visit the US next week to discuss the project with prospective partners, said Wichan Jitpukdee, chief executive of SCGP.
“We are not going to invest through merger and acquisition, instead seeking partners to co-invest in rigid packaging,” he said.
