Dear shareholders
The year 2021 has been challenging for each one of us.
The second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant
impact on lives, livelihoods, and business. I would like to start
by expressing my deepest appreciation to all, particularly all
our front-line workers who have worked tirelessly to ensure
the safety of our people and communities.
This year, as we marked our 85th Founder's Day, we strengthened our commitment to building an even better ACC.

MD and CEO’s message
Dear shareholders
I hope you and your families are doing well. My heartfelt
gratitude to all our frontline teams who put aside their
individual priorities and worked selflessly to help others.
We also partnered with the government, medical care
facilities and our communities to mobilise all necessary
resources to save lives.
The demand rebound in the sector is mirrored in our strong sales growth, with successful new product launches as well as market acceptance of several of our value-added products.
