CAVAC is assisting the Supreme National Economic Council (SNEC) to conduct a feasibility study with a site-specific business case, which will inform government and private sector decision-making in regard to investment in and establishment of an Agro-Industrial Park (AIP) in Cambodia.

Objectives

To ensure the commerciality of the feasibility study and the practicality of the site-specific business case for an Agro-Industrial Park (AIP) in Cambodia, CAVAC is seeking a technical expert on Industrial Park infrastructure development and operational systems planning.

Feedback must consider best practices and the specific needs of an industrial park, including leasing regulations, operating policies, infrastructure, special facilities and essential services.
  • Lead the development of a strategic plan to operationalise the AIP, including advice on how to secure investment/funding sources for the establishment of the park (this could include industrial operators, developers, and sponsors).
  • Provide strategic advice to SNEC and the industrial park steering committee on how to transition from feasibility to an implementation phase. Advice must consider commercial aspects of the proposed operating model and other feasibility recommendations.
  • Propose a marketing and promotion plan to help attract prospective investors as tenants for the established park.
  • Support and coordinate visits to comparable overseas agri-food or similar industrial estates for the AIP Inter-Ministerial Steering Committee, which will be organised by CAVAC.
