CORPORATE PROFILE



KKB Engineering Berhad (KKBEB)  has its humble beginning way back in 1962 as a small engineering workshop in Sarawak  founded  and  operated  by  the  present   Chairman  and  Group Managing Director , Dato Kho Kak Beng which was then undertaking modest steel fabrication works.

The  business  was  officially  registered  as  a sole proprietorship in 1962 with the progression into steel fabrication  works  for factory buildings and products. The Company was incorporated on  20 February 1976  as a private  limited  company under the name of Kho Kak Beng Welding and Engineering Contractor Sdn Bhd. On 23 March 1994, it was converted into a public limited company.

Much due to its past success,  proven track records and phenomenal achievement, the  Company  was  listed  on the Second Board of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad on 9 November 1994. The status of the Company was later transferred to the Main Board under the “Industrial Products” sector on 21 June 2007.

From  an  engineering base,  the growth of the  Company  continues  to be driven by further expansion and diversification into manufacturing activities relating to steel.
