THE WHAT? Procter & Gamble is set to invest 600 million pesos (US$5.8 million) in a bid to modernize and increase its production lines in Argentina, according to a report by Market Research Telecast.
THE DETAILS The personal care giant is reported to have presented the investment plan to Argentine Minister of Productive Development, Matías Kulfas.
