# Driving Innovation and Leadership: Inside Tereos FKS Indonesia
As the pioneering force behind integrated corn processing in Indonesia, Tereos FKS Indonesia stands at the forefront of agricultural manufacturing. Established in 2014 through a strategic joint venture between the renowned Tereos Group and the FKS Group, the company was built to satisfy the rapidly expanding Southeast Asian market for corn starch and natural sweeteners.

Strategically situated at the Cigading port on the western coast of Java Island, the operation features a state-of-the-art integrated facility capable of transforming raw kernels into a diverse portfolio of high-grade corn derivatives. Current operations process an impressive 1,300 tons of corn daily—a figure projected to scale significantly in the coming years.
