Kuala Lumpur Kepong Berhad (”KLK”) started as a plantation company in 1906 and until today, the development of oil palm and rubber remains the Group’s core business. KLK presently has about 300,000 hectares of planted area (97% oil palm). Our land bank is spread across Malaysia (Peninsular and Sabah), Indonesia (Belitung Island, Sumatra, as well as Kalimantan), and Liberia.
In order to optimise value across the supply chain, KLK diversified into resource-based manufacturing (refinery and oleochemical), and vertically integrated its upstream, midstream and downstream businesses. The Group has since expanded its manufacturing operations resulting in an international oleochemicals operations in Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Italy.
In 1990, KLK started capitalising on the strategic location of its land bank in Peninsular Malaysia by branching into property development under KLK Land. Our first foray into property development was Sierramas in Sungai Buloh, a joint venture with Tan & Tan Developments Berhad, a wholly owned subsidiary of IGB Berhad. It is currently focused on Bandar Seri Coalfields, a 1,001-acre township in Sungai Buloh and Caledonia in Ijok, Selangor.
