Fordeco Sdn.Bhd was incorporated on 28th June, 1982 under the Companies Act 1965 as a Private Limited Company with its registered office at 1st Floor, Fordeco Building, Jalan Singa Mata, 91100 Lahad Datu, Sabah, Malaysia.
Before its inception as a private Limited Company, it initially started as a logging contractor and timber trader way back to 1972 under the name of Forest development Company.
It expanded its business rapidly and achieved tremendous growth especially during the timber boom period from 1978 to 1980. Subsequently with the inception of Fordeco Sdn.Bhd (name originating from Forest Development Co) , the newly formed company continued to grow by leaps and bounds.
With ample financial resources accumulated over the years, the company and its sister /related companies have diversified into other lines of business such as oil palm plantations, quarrying, land and sea transportation, tyre retreading, housing development, road construction etc, foreseeing that timber business would not be viable for long.
In 1996, the business of major oil palm plantations and stone quarrying were reshuffled to be under the Kwantas Group of Companies.
Since then, Fordeco Sdn.Bhd has mainly concentrated its business activities in land and sea transportation. And in recent years, with the backup by experienced management team and skilled personnel and in possession of a fleet of barges, tugboats, vehicles, trucks etc. , it has been able to maintain a consistent track record of providing efficient and high-quality transportation services to its business clients.
Currently, it has also ventured into the business of Reconditioning and Reassembly of used Commercial vehicles. The Management is optimistic that the new business activity will synergistically generate even more profitable returns to the company.
