Chinese dairy giant Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Company Limited – based in Hohhot, capital of North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region – recently became a dairy partner of the G20 Indonesia 2022 Summit which is currently underway, under the theme of "Recover Together, Recover Stronger".

This has marked the second time that a partnership was established between Yili and the G20 Summit, following the company serving its products at the G20 Hangzhou Summit in 2016.

During the G20 Indonesia Summit, Yili will also join the Coral Reef Ecological Restoration Project in the Komodo National Park in Indonesia to jointly promote global biodiversity conservation with the G20.

At the same time, Joyday ice cream produced by Yili, as the summit's designated ice cream, will be served to the political and business representatives at the event.

On Oct 23 in 2018, Yili launched Joyday ice cream in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, setting forth a new path to serving consumers in Southeast Asia.

On Dec 10, 2021, the first phase project of Yili Indonesia Dairy Production Base – the largest ice cream factory in Indonesia – was completed and started operations.

This is the largest production base built by a Chinese dairy company in Southeast Asia. It forms a dual center" with the production base in Thailand that serves the Southeast Asian market and liaises with Yili's supply chain in Asia, Europe, America and Oceania.

To date, Joyday ice cream is reported to have sold well in Indonesia and been exported to Singapore, Myanmar, Vietnam and other countries and regions.

Yili's globalization is accelerating. It now has 15 R&D and innovation centers and 74 production bases  around the world and has established partnerships with more than 2,000 companies internationally, with its products exported to more than 60 countries and regions.
