Sime Darby Plantation places great emphasis placed on R&D to enhance productivity, discover improvements in sustainable operations, explore new opportunities in biofuels and other activities in agribusiness.

Backed by more than 400 years of collective experience in plantations management, Sime Darby Plantation is geared towards differentiating its upstream operations and rationalising and extending its downstream activities. The company is always looking for ways to improve overall performance and profitability, whilst ensuring sustainability.

Specific initiatives have been undertaken to deliver progressive and sustainable annual synergy values of more than RM350 million beyond 2010.

Acknowledging that maintaining a leading position in the industry will present many challenges, Sime Darby Plantation’s strategies for expansion and growth in its upstream operations will focus on productivity-driven initiatives while the future expansion of the downstream business will be driven by niche marketing, technology-advancement and innovative R&D.

In driving for the desired results, the company promotes a performance-driven culture with clear and transparent accountability among its employees.
