Since 2005 for three years, from the beginning the company purchased dry cassava root for exporting purpose. There were issues which are: higher transportation costs – we have no access to the sea also the complexity of purchasing slicing/drying cassava from customers due to the fact of difficulty of storage. With above reasons, the company decided to build tapioca factory – so this way we will have finish product. And also, this will increase employment for the local people. The factory was built in 02/07/2007 at Nashawn Village, Pakngum District, Vientaine Capital. At that moment in 02/07/2007 the company started to clear land and build the factory, installing mechineries and technology available to be used.

The total registered capital of $5.5US millions. Until now we have total register capital of 100 billion kip ($12.5 million) for Lao-Indochina Group Company.

Presently, the company has exceptional result, which is shown in receiving GMP and ISO 9001:2008 standard from England. The product meets and exceeding standard of our customers in and outside the country (particularly China) and number one product in China with respect to Tapioca. Other than above, the company also involving environmental-friendly aspect and it is very important part of the company. The company built 12 water reservoirs which is 250 meters long, 50 meters wide and eight meters deep for the waste water from the plant as part of water treatment before release back to the river. The company also signed an agreement with Bio-Gas company from Thailand with fund from Finland, to construct Bio-Gas factory to produce electricity by the end of 2011.
