Aceh, June 2, 2026 – PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO) continues to strengthen its presence across Indonesia through the expansion of its Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) service network. As part of this initiative, PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO) officially inaugurated its Aceh Marketing Office, located at Jl. Dr. Mr. Mohd Hasan No. 8, Batoh, Lueng Bata District, Banda Aceh, to enhance customer engagement, broaden service coverage, and strengthen collaboration with stakeholders in the region.
Banda Aceh Mayor Illiza Sa’aduddin Djamal, who attended the inauguration ceremony, stated that the presence of PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO) provides new opportunities for Acehnese businesses to grow and improve their competitiveness in an increasingly dynamic market.
“We view SUCOFINDO not merely as a testing or certification institution, but as a strategic partner for regional development. It is a partner that helps our businesses receive guidance, improve product quality, strengthen competitiveness, and access broader market opportunities,” said Illiza Sa’aduddin Djamal.
She further explained that the Banda Aceh City Government is actively promoting an economy built on quality and market trust. One of its key initiatives is accelerating halal certification for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), in line with the implementation of Islamic law and the Halal Product Assurance Qanun in Banda Aceh.
“Therefore, the presence of institutions that ensure product quality and safety is highly strategic in protecting consumers while strengthening market confidence. We are also open to expanding cooperation and collaboration with SUCOFINDO in the future, whether in MSME development, improving local product quality, strengthening investment, or supporting various programs that contribute to economic growth,” she added.
On the same occasion, Independent Commissioner of PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO), Zainal Abidin, reaffirmed the company’s commitment to providing TIC services across Indonesia, from Sabang to Merauke.
“The establishment of the Aceh Marketing Office represents a strategic step to expand our service reach and strengthen engagement with customers and stakeholders throughout Aceh,” he stated.
Echoing this commitment, Commercial Director of PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO), Agus Permadi, highlighted Aceh’s significant potential across various strategic sectors.
“We see Aceh as a region with substantial potential and highly strategic prospects, particularly in oil and gas, energy, infrastructure, mining, trade, and other rapidly growing industries. These opportunities create broad prospects for collaboration in supporting both regional and national economic development,” he explained.
Agus emphasized that PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO) is not only a provider of Testing, Inspection, and Certification services but also a strategic partner supporting economic development and enhancing the competitiveness of national and regional industries.
“As a TIC company, SUCOFINDO is ready to support local businesses, including MSMEs, in meeting market standards so they can expand business opportunities and increase the added value of regional products,” Agus affirmed.
He further explained that, as a State-Owned Enterprise (SOE), PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO) remains committed not only to strengthening its business and service portfolio but also to enhancing the capacity and competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
As part of this commitment, SUCOFINDO’s Halal Inspection Body (LPH) presented halal certificates to MSMEs in Aceh Province during the inauguration of the Aceh Marketing Office.
“Halal certification is not merely a regulatory requirement; it is also a strategic instrument for improving product competitiveness. By obtaining halal certification, businesses gain greater opportunities to expand market access both domestically and internationally,” said Agus Permadi.
In line with this vision, President Director of PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO), Sandry Pasambuna, expressed hope that the establishment of the Aceh Marketing Office would strengthen cross-sector collaboration and contribute to sustainable economic growth.
“We hope that the Aceh Marketing Office will become one of SUCOFINDO’s growth engines in Sumatra, while contributing to customers, local communities, and MSMEs in supporting Aceh’s sustainable development. We also hope that businesses, particularly those in Aceh, will continue to grow and enhance their competitiveness,” Sandry Pasambuna concluded.
