Over the years, BKB has diversified from its core plantation business into the manufacturing of industrial chemicals. In 1992, the Company sold all its plantations assets to Kuala Lumpur Kepong Berhad ("KLK"), in exchange for shares. KLK is the Company’s largest investment in which it currently owns 47% equity stake.

In 2015, BKB through its wholly owned subsidiary, Caruso Australia Ventures Pty Ltd, had ventured into residential property development investments in Australia. These development projects are situated in the cities of Melbourne and Perth, and are managed by established professional Australian property developers.

As at 16 March 2021, BKB had completed the acquisition of Chemical Company of Malaysia Berhad (“CCM”), a leading manufacturer and supplier of chlor-alkali and polymer chemicals in Malaysia. Following the successful take-over, CCM is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of BKB. This acquisition is strategic as it will increase BKB Group’s market presence as a chlor-alkali chemicals manufacturer in Malaysia, along with existing operations of its 98%-owned subsidiary, Malay-Sino Chemical Industries Sdn Bhd.

BKB is also listed on Forbes Asia's "Fab50" list that features 50 of the best publicly traded, high performing blue chips in Asia Pacific.
