CP’s new face mask factory will give away free mask to Thai nationals

Dhanin Chearavanont, a Thai billionaire and Senior Chairman of the Charoen Pokphand Group, thanked his employees for their help in setting up the CP mask factory on Friday (April 10) within five weeks as planned.

In the wake of a recent Covid -19 outbreak, Dhanin revealed on March 5 that his group would spend more than 100 million Baht to build the factory in order to alleviate supply shortages on the market.

Dhanin said the factory will manufacture 3 million surgical masks a month to distribute through Chulalongkorn Hospital to the medical personnel.

He added that production will be increased to be distributed free of charge to Thai citizens.

The factory will be opened on April 16, after the Food and Drug Administration has approved the plant.
