Cropmate Plans RM12 Million Bintulu Fertiliser Hub

Cropmate’s planned Bintulu site could support fertiliser production and storage in East Malaysia, but approvals, construction costs and future demand remain key milestones.

Kuala Lumpur, 10 November 2026 – Cropmate Berhad has agreed conditionally to acquire about four acres in Bintulu, Sarawak, for RM12.0 million, as it plans to establish a fertiliser manufacturing and warehousing facility in East Malaysia. The proposed purchase by its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Cropmate Fertilizer Bintulu Sdn Bhd, would give the group an industrial site in Kidurong Industrial Area Phase II, subject to land authority consent and other required approvals.

The seller is Dominant Potential Sdn Bhd, and the consideration will be paid in cash. Cropmate said the price is in line with an independent valuation of RM12.0 million dated 16 July 2026. The acquisition remains conditional on consent from the Director of Lands and Surveys, and completion is expected in the fourth quarter of 2027, barring unforeseen circumstances. The timetable leaves a substantial period between signing and completion, during which investors will be watching for approvals and any changes to the transaction terms.
