INDOMIE FACTORY TRIP - 2

Intro


On Thursday, July 30th 2015, me and the other BSP students had a chance to do an industrial visit to one big company, Indofood, and we had a chance to visit their best selling product's factory, which is Indomie factory. We met up early at school at 7.00 AM because the factory is quite far from our college, located in Cibitung, Bekasi. We went together to the factory by bus at 10.00 AM and we quickly started our activities.

The first thing that we did was obviously the presentation of their product, they showed us how many flavours they have on the market at the interim, which was quite surprising because there were so many flavours that I had not seen before, such as Indomie Cabe Hijau, Indomie Taste of Asia, etc. Previously I did not notice on how many Indomie flavours that exist in the market right now, but finally I recognized so many different flavours added in the last few years because I was not in Indonesia for the last four years.

After we had the introduction done, we had a tour on the process of making the noodles from wet to dry, how they fry it, how they dry it, and lastly on how they put it in the packaging. I knew that the production process was all done by the machines because I think it is impossible for Indomie to produce noodle with so many human powers. Sadly, we were not allowed to take pictures on the machineries.


After we had the tour, we finally came up with the Q&A session which was really interesting because I thought the tour was too short. We had so many questions on the marketing strategy because personally, this is the most important part on the industrial visits, knowing the company strategy further and learn from these big companies on how to do the business !
