Bulog Targets Global Logistics Orchestrator Role with Professional-Adaptive Approach
Jakarta (ANTARA) - Perum Bulog’s President Director Ahmad Rizal Ramdhani is targeting the company to become a national and international logistics orchestrator through strengthening professionalism, modernisation, and adaptive capabilities to support food security and distribution.
“Our hope moving forward aligns with Bulog’s vision: Bulog not only as a participant in national logistics distribution, but in the future as a national logistics orchestrator or even an international logistics orchestrator,” Rizal said in Jakarta on Monday.
Rizal conveyed this vision while opening the Bazaar and Affordable Food Movement (GPM) as part of the 59th Anniversary (HUT) celebrations of Perum Bulog, held in Jakarta.
According to him, Bulog in the future will not only act as a food logistics distributor but will develop into the main manager of an integrated national to international food supply chain.
This transformation is deemed essential to strengthen Bulog’s position in facing increasingly complex food distribution challenges amid societal needs dynamics and global trade developments.
“Bulog’s 59th anniversary or its 59th milestone; our hope is that this milestone will inspire all Bulog employees to do their best for the nation and state,” Rizal stated.
Furthermore, Rizal said the 59th HUT commemoration of Bulog serves as a momentum to strengthen the spirit of all employees to continue providing the best contributions to the nation through the strategic national food sector.
He also requested support and prayers from the Indonesian people, including the extended Bulog family, TNI, Polri, and all elements of society to support the company’s future transformation.
Rizal added that this year’s Bulog anniversary celebrations are being conducted simply in line with leadership directives, prioritising social activities and togetherness over excessive ceremonial events.
As part of the activities, Bulog is holding a bazaar and Affordable Food Movement (GPM), distributing 1,000 free staple goods packages to eligible beneficiaries, as well as providing aid to orphans and blood donation drives as part of the company’s social concern for the surrounding community.
