正大集团(Chia Tai Group)由泰籍华人谢氏兄弟(谢易初和谢少飞)创办于1921年,总部位于泰国曼谷。正大集团在中国以外称作卜蜂集团
(Charoen Pokphand Group)。目前正大集团是泰国最大的商业集团。经过几十年的发展,正大集团业务遍及20多个国家和地区,下属
400多家公司,员工人数近20万人。
· 创业初期,谢氏兄弟在泰国曼谷和中国汕头分别成立了"正大庄菜籽行"和"正大种籽农业公司"。他们从中国进口种子并卖给泰国农民,同时从事农产品种
子培育、改良和推广工作。
· 1953年,随着种子商店的成功,正大集团开始生产动物饲料。在20世纪90年代,正大集团的144家饲料厂每年产量达到了1400万吨。
· 1979年,正大集团在深圳兴建了中国第一家中外合资企业,并取得了深圳第001号中外合资企业营业执照。
· 1987年,正大集团在香港组建正大综艺节目有限公司,并于1989年3月开始正式在中国播出。后来又和中央电视台合作制作《正大综艺》节目。
· 1990年4月7日,邓小平在中南海接见了正大集团谢国民。
· 1997年起,正大在上海浦东新区陆家嘴金融贸易区投资兴建正大广场,并于2002年开张
《亚洲金融》在1988年载文,称泰国华裔商人谢国民是"亚洲最杰出的企业家"。他所领导的"正大集团"在全世界各地共拥有26个饲料厂,年产量达到
50万吨之巨。1987年,"正大集团"跻身世界500家大型企业的行列。泰国国王曾亲自授予谢国民泰国政法大学商业荣誉博士学位,以表彰他对泰国经济
发 展的贡献。因为泰国人吃的每日三餐都少不了正大集团生产的食品,因此谢国民被人称为"农牧巨子"。1994年以来,在由世界著名财经杂志《远东经济
评论》评选的"亚洲200领先企业"中,正大集团6次位居泰国企业之榜首,3次位居第二;2003年9月,正大集团董事长谢国民先生被美国《财富》杂志
评选为全球最具影响力的50位商界领袖之一;2005年10月,美国《财富》杂志评出亚洲商界领袖25强,正大集团董事长谢国民先生位于其中。
