Sarawak Oil Palms Berhad

SARAWAK OIL PALMS BERHAD (SOPB) is a Malaysian public company listed on the Bursa Malaysia (Formerly known as the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange). SOPB started out as a joint-venture between the Commonwealth Development Corporation (CDC) and the Sarawak State government in 1968 to pioneer the commercial planting of oil palms in the state with an initial land area covering 4,600 hectares of oil palm plantation under the name of Sarawak Oil Palms Sendirian Berhad (SOPSB) before the group changed to its name to SOPB officially in 1990. SOPB is involved primarily in the cultivation of oil palms and the operation of palm oil mills. SOPB Group has since then expanded its land bank to over 121,000 hectares, with 87,000 hectares planted with oil palm trees in Sarawak. Oil palm plantation and the production of crude palm oil and palm kernels will continue to remain as the sole core business of SOPB Group.
