Kuala Lumpur Kepong Berhad

Kuala Lumpur Kepong Berhad (KLK), started as a plantation company in 1906 and today, the development of oil palm and rubber remains the Group’s core business. In over 110 years of operations, the Group’s sound management and strategic acquisitions have resulted in over 300,000 hectares of planted area for both crops. Our land bank extends across Malaysia (Peninsula and Sabah), Indonesia (Belitung Island, Sumatra and Kalimantan) and Liberia. KLK ventured into resource-based manufacturing in the 1990s to optimise value across the supply chain by vertically integrating its upstream business with downstream capabilities in oleochemicals, derivatives and specialty chemicals. Today, the Group is a global oleochemical producer with complexes located strategically in Malaysia, Indonesia, China and Europe. Our products are used in diverse end-use application, including home and personal care, pharmaceuticals, food and nutrition, flavours and fragrances, lubricants and industrial chemicals. Property development became another key business as the Group capitalised on its strategic land bank location in Peninsular Malaysia. KLK made its first foray into property development in 1990 through the gated and guarded development of Sierramas, a joint venture with Tan & Tan Developments Bhd. The Group is presently focused on Bandar Seri Coalfields, a 1,001-acre township located in Sungai Buloh, Malaysia.
