‘Business as usual’ for NFC despite assets being frozen

Despite having its assets frozen, it is “business as usual” for the National Feedlot Corporation Sdn Bhd (NFC).

Its executive director Wan Shahinur Izmir Salleh said beef would continue to be supplied and all orders would also be fulfilled.

In reassuring its clients, employees and vendors, Wan Shahinur said there was no disruption to its daily operations.

“In fact, our assets have been frozen by the relevant authorities since December, last year.

“In our efforts to facilitate smooth and thorough investigations, we have extended our fullest co-operation from the outset.

“As such, I would like to reassure clients, vendors as well as our employees that they would continue to be served and gainfully employed,” he said in a statement yesterday.

The statement added that NFC supplied beef to more than 160 customers, including hypermarkets, supermarkets, mini markets, wet markets, processed meat manufacturers, hotels, restaurants and cafes.

The company also clarified that its 4,500 heads of cattle at its centre in Negri Sembilan would continue to be nurtured to meet the country’s beef supply target and objectives of the National Meat Policy.

It had also received a further import shipment of 1,500 heads of cattle from Australia.
