The history of Southern Acids (M)
Berhad
(SAB) dates back to 1980 when Southern Acids (M) Sdn Bhd
was incorporated as a private limited company to venture into the oleochemical
industry.
Southern Acids (M) Sdn Bhd was started by a group
of local entrepreneurs, engaged primarily in the upstream oil palm market
who
were quick to
see the potential presented by palm oil as an alternative feedstock to the
oleochemical industry which was then still largely based on tallow and coconut
oil.
Today, SAB and its subsidiaries is a group of
companies whose businesses include investments in other palm oil related
sectors, both locally and abroad. In addition to the palm oil industry,
SAB also operates a private tertiary healthcare centre in Klang,
Selangor.
SAB is listed on the Main Market of the Malaysian Stock Exchange, Bursa
Malaysia Securities Berhad.
