JAKARTA - PT Hutama Karya or HK said it was building 80 Nutrition Fulfillment Service Units (SPPG) or Free Nutrition Meal (MBG) kitchens. A total of 80 MBG kitchens are spread across seven provinces.
Executive Vice President (EVP) Corporate Secretary of Hutama Karya Mardiansyah detailed, dozens of SPPG are spread in Aceh (four points); North Sumatra (35 points); West Sumatra (12 points); Riau (six points); Anambas Islands (one point); Jambi (15 points); and South Sumatra (seven points).
"Nutritional fulfillment requires well-organized and adequate service facilities to support MBG services in the region," said Mardiansyah as quoted from a written statement, Monday, January 26.
In the field, he said, work is carried out in parallel with cluster arrangements. This strategy helps ensure more efficient procurement of materials, movement of labor, and use of tools in remote areas.
Meanwhile, in terms of facilities, SPPG is designed to support the daily operation of the service kitchen.
In the main building, the specifications emphasize hygiene through the use of sandwich panel walls with antibacterial coatings and stainless steel coatings in the cooking area.
"The air control system is also prepared through the incoming and outgoing air units, including cooker hoods, so that the circulation of the working room is maintained," he said.
As for the National Nutrition Day (HGN) 2026 which was commemorated on January 25th, Hutama Karya took a role by preparing the SPPG infrastructure as a reinforcement of the MBG Program.
Mardiansyah said that the company is a partner of the Ministry of Health (Kemenkes), the National Nutrition Agency (BGN), and also supports the efforts of the Ministry of Public Works (PU) in providing nutrition service facilities.
HGN 2026 also provides a broader context. The reason is that the warning is in coordination with the Ministry of Health as a public education movement. Therefore, cross-agency involvement is important.
In this case, the synergy of the Ministry of Health, BGN, the Ministry of PU and implementing partners such as Hutama Karya shows that nutritional services are not stand-alone.
"There is infrastructure that must be ready, before the service can run stably and reach more beneficiaries, it is important to ensure that the national nutrition program runs sustainably and has an impact," he added.
