This investment underscores the strong market confidence in Ashita Group&#8217;s vision to redefine digital commerce across Southeast Asia and beyond over the next 5 years.<\/p>\n<p>The CPFam-LDA Asia Growth Fund, a strategic joint venture between LDA Capital, a global alternative investment firm, and CP Group, Thailand&#8217;s largest and most diversified conglomerate, has committed USD 55 million to support Ashita Group over a three-year period following its public listing.
