It is pertinent to note that the company has provided assurance that the buffalo farms in the South Asian country would be foot-and-mouth (FMD) disease-free.

The company aims to produce high-quality milk from these buffalo farms and then process it into powdered milk and mozzarella cheese.

The Chinese company also aims to establish a Semen Production Unit (SPU) in Pakistan, where the breeding of the bulls would be managed.

 Meanwhile, Asad Umar welcomed the Chinese company to Pakistan and assured it of all possible facilities, remarking that the Government of Pakistan does not have any bureaucratic red-tapism.

He added that the Ministry of Planning, Development & Special Initiatives, and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) Authority are committed to promoting investment from the East Asian country.

Asad Umar shared that the Investor Facilitation Center (IFC) under the CPEC Authority would soon become operational. This would help resolve issues being faced by Chinese investors.
