SP Setia
S P Setia Berhad is a Malaysian public-listed company whose primary business is in property development, while other businesses include construction, infrastructure, wood-based manufacturing, and trading. Its portfolio comprises townships, eco-sanctuaries, luxury enclaves, high-rise residences, commercial and retail as well as integrated mixed developments. Since its inception, S P Setia Berhad has become one of the established property development companies based in Malaysia.
The group started out in 1974 as a construction company which was later led by a well-known property development figure, Liew Kee Sin. in 1990 and was eventually listed on Bursa Malaysia in 1993. In 1996, S P Setia refocused its core business to property development with supporting businesses in construction and wood-based manufacturing.
In 2011/2012, Permodalan Nasional Berhad, Malaysia's state asset manager which was then under Tun Ahmad Sarji Abdul Hamid, took over S P Setia, joining the foray of acquisitions led by the government-linked companies in private property sector. Tan Sri Liew Kee Sin stepped down as the president and Chief Executive Officer of S P Setia Berhad in 2014 and joined Eco World Development Group Bhd as a non-independent & non-executive director.
S P Setia currently has a presence in the three key economic regions of Malaysia, namely Klang Valley, Johor and Penang, as well as in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Internationally, S P Setia’s projects are present in Vietnam, Australia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, China and the most recent one being in Japan.
The employees of S P Setia are commonly referred to by the organisation as Team Setia which currently stands at approximately 2,000 people.
S P Setia’s charitable trust, Setia Foundation, was established in 2000 with the objective of lending a helping hand to underprivileged individuals and charities in the areas of education, general welfare, and medical assistance. In the year 2015, S P Setia Foundation embarked on a mission to adopt schools housing underprivileged students in rural areas. To date, S P Setia Foundation has successfully adopted six schools located in Penang and Johor.
