# Kencana Agri Ltd: Leading Sustainable Palm Oil Growth and Career Opportunities
Established in 1996, Kencana Agri Ltd has cemented its reputation as a prominent player in the plantation sector. Listed on the Singapore Exchange since July 2008, the Group operates as a vertically integrated palm oil enterprise, focusing on the end-to-end management of palm oil production. With a strategic footprint across Indonesia, the company continues to play a vital role in meeting global demand for high-quality palm oil products.
## Core Operations and Strategic Reach
Kencana Agri specializes in the comprehensive cultivation of oil palms and the sophisticated processing of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB). The company transforms raw materials into high-value products, including:
* Crude Palm Oil (CPO)
* Crude Palm Kernel Oil (CPKO)
* Palm Kernel Expeller (PKE)
* Palm Kernels (PK)
* Integrated bulking and logistics services
The Group’s plantations are strategically located across the Indonesian archipelago, primarily throughout Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi. By 2020, the company’s total planted area—including plasma smallholder schemes—had expanded to approximately 68,150 hectares.
## Operational Infrastructure and Growth Potential
Kencana Agri maintains a robust infrastructure designed for maximum output and efficiency. The company currently manages:
* Six Palm Oil Mills: Boasting a combined processing capacity of 305 metric tons per hour.
* Two Kernel Crushing Plants: Operating with a total capacity of 435 tons per day.
One of the Group's most compelling competitive advantages is its relatively young plantation profile. As these palms continue to mature, the company is positioned to realize significant production growth, reaching peak maturity in the coming years.
## Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability is at the core of Kencana Agri’s business model. The company is dedicated to growth that is both ecologically responsible and socially equitable. Key environmental initiatives include:
* Zero-Burning Policy: Strict adherence to land-clearing practices that protect air quality and soil integrity.
* Zero-Waste Management: Implementing circular systems to minimize environmental footprints within the milling process.
* Regulatory Compliance: Actively pursuing and maintaining the Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) certification to ensure operations meet national and international standards.
