Prospek Cerah Sektor Makanan dan Minuman Indonesia di Tengah Ketidakpastian Global Image

Indonesia's food and beverage (F&B) industry continues to demonstrate strong potential despite the uncertainty in the global market. Josua Pardede, Chief Economist at Bank Permata, stated that the sector remains attractive to investors, both domestic and foreign. In the third quarter of 2024, domestic direct investment (DDI) in the F&B sector reached IDR 19.8 trillion, marking a 19.4% increase compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, foreign direct investment (FDI) also grew by 17% year-on-year (yoy) during the same period.

According to Josua, Indonesia's F&B industry is one of the largest contributors to manufacturing sector exports, accounting for 40.2% of the GDP in the non-oil and gas processing industry in the third quarter of 2024. This highlights the crucial role of the sector in supporting the country's economy. Furthermore, high domestic consumption and purchasing power are also driving the growth of this industry, making it one of the key drivers of economic growth.

However, the F&B sector also faces challenges, such as rising raw material prices and dependency on imports, such as sugar and basic chemicals, which can increase production costs. Nevertheless, projections of falling agricultural commodity prices may help alleviate these pressures. Overall, with the ongoing trends in investment and consumption, the food and beverage sector is expected to continue making significant contributions to Indonesia's GDP.
