Pallet Rental Service Case Study │ Cargill Siam

As part of a case study on UPR’s pallet rental service, we highlight the successful collaboration with Cargill Siam Limited, a company engaged in manufacturing, sales, and services for processed foods and agricultural-related products.

Established in Thailand in 1968, Cargill Siam has built a strong reputation over more than 50 years, earning the trust of customers both domestically and internationally. The company operates three group companies in Thailand, each specializing in different products and services.

• Agriculture: Sourcing from production areas and exporters, along with sales of grains, oilseeds, and vegetable oils.
• Livestock feed: Producing over 200 types of high-quality feed at its mill in Chachoengsao Province, supplying directly to more than 400 customers nationwide.
• Processed chicken products: Cargill Group manufactures and exports processed chicken to 10 countries. With an integrated production system covering feed mills, hatcheries, and processing plants, the company ensures a seamless one-stop process.

UPR’s pallet rental service helps manage seasonal demand spikes

The production output at Cargill Siam’s Chachoengsao feed mill varies throughout the year based on demand fluctuations. In particular, extended holiday seasons like New Year and Songkran create a surge in pallet requirements for storing both raw materials and finished goods. To address these seasonal challenges, the company utilizes UPR’s pallet rental service.

The service was first introduced to the Chachoengsao feed mill through recommendations from Cargill Siam’s Nakhon Pathom factory, which was already benefiting from it. After testing different pallet sizes, the company selected Type 14 pallets for their ideal combination of size and durability.
