Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - PT Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk has been awarded Indonesia’s Best Food Resilience Leadership at the Food Summit 2026. The presentation took place in Jakarta on Monday (27/4/2026), organised by CNBC Indonesia.

This achievement stems from the company’s extensive track record, proven business resilience, substantial contributions to the national economy, and sustainable leadership in the food industry.

As is well known, Indofood Sukses Makmur is one of Indonesia’s largest food companies, having navigated various economic cycles, changes in consumer behaviour, and global supply chain challenges. Armed with an integrated business model from upstream to downstream, Indofood reinforces its position as a resilient, adaptive, and relevant corporation across generations.

Embracing the vision of being a Total Food Solutions Company, Indofood builds integrated business strengths from upstream to downstream. In other words, Indofood starts from raw material production, processing, manufacturing, to distribution in national and international markets. This business strategy positions Indofood as a strategic pillar of Indonesia’s food industry.

Founded in 1990 and rooted in various businesses operating since the early 1980s, Indofood has grown to become a market leader in the country. Indofood is also supported by four main strategic business groups: Consumer Branded Products, Bogasari, Agribusiness, and Distribution.

This complementary business structure creates strong economies of scale and high resilience amid global market dynamics.

In the consumer products sector, Indofood offers various brands that have become household icons in Indonesia. Among them are Indomie, Supermi, Sarimi, Pop Mie, Indomilk, Chitato, Qtela, Chiki, Ichi Ocha, and Club. Indofood’s portfolio in the consumer products sector reaches nearly all segments of societal needs while fostering emotional connections across generations with Indonesian consumers.

For example, Indomie, as Indofood’s flagship brand, has become a global phenomenon. With production networks in various countries and a production capacity of billions of packets per year, Indomie has successfully positioned Indofood as a world player from Indonesia capable of competing in international markets. This success demonstrates Indofood’s ability to turn local flavours into global strengths.

In the upstream sector, Indofood through Bogasari has become the largest producer of wheat flour and pasta, supporting the national food industry’s supply chain. Meanwhile, Indofood also manages an integrated business chain in agribusiness, from seed research, palm oil plantations, cooking oil processing, margarine, shortening, to diversification of other commodities like sugarcane and rubber. This makes Indofood have a strong and independent production foundation.

Furthermore, Indofood is one of the owners of the widest distribution networks in Indonesia, enabling its products to reach major cities to remote areas. This advantage is crucial in maintaining household food availability, supporting domestic trade, and strengthening national economic connectivity. Few companies possess distribution capabilities on the scale and depth of Indofood’s.

Beyond business strengths, Indofood also demonstrates a high commitment to governance and sustainability through various international certifications, from food safety, quality standards, energy efficiency, occupational health and safety, to environmental standards and palm oil sustainability.
