Kuala Lumpur Kepong

Kuala Lumpur Kepong company description

KLK started as a plantation company more than 100 years ago and today, the development of oil palm remains the Group’s core business. As of September 2025, KLK has about 300,000 hectares of planted area. Our landbank is spread across Malaysia (Peninsular and Sabah), Indonesia (Belitung Island, Sumatra, as well as Central and East Kalimantan) and Liberia. Since the 1990s, KLK has diversified into resource-based manufacturing (refinery, oleochemical, derivatives and specialty chemicals) and vertically integrated its upstream, midstream and downstream businesses. The Group has since expanded its manufacturing operations resulting in internationally-scaled oleochemicals operations in Malaysia, Indonesia, China and Europe. The Group started capitalising on the strategic location of its landbank in Peninsular Malaysia by branching into property development in 1990. It is presently focused on Bandar Seri Coalfields, a 1,001-acre township in Sungai Buloh that offers a mix of residential, commercial and recreational spaces, with amenities such as schools, parks, and retail outlets to cater to the needs of its growing community. It is complemented by Caledonia in Ijok, a 202-acre freehold and low-density township with both residential and commercial components that incorporates sustainable and community-oriented amenities. Both projects aim to create well-rounded communities while incorporating sustainable practices.
