Seeded in a small tin-mining company established in 1974, Sunway Group has thrived to become one of Malaysia’s most widely recognized and diversified conglomerates with a multitude of established businesses. Its core businesses include: civil engineering and construction; building materials; trading and manufacturing; quarrying; information technology; property development and investment; leisure, entertainment and hospitality; healthcare; and education.
Visionary leadership, perceptive and transparent corporate policies, and synergistic teamwork have contributed to the Group into becoming what it is today – a leader in all areas it specializes in. Sunway is the only Malaysian organization in the Asia Pacific region that was ranked sixth in the Hewitt-Fortune-RBL Top Companies for Leaders 2007 in recognition of its unflinching commitment to human capital management.
The Group encompasses two Main Board listed companies – Sunway Holdings Berhad (Sunway Holdings) and Sunway City Berhad (SunCity). Sunway Holdings is an investment operations arm with core businesses in construction, building materials, trading, manufacturing, and quarry while SunCity is involved in the areas of property development and property investment that also comprises hospitality industries.
The Group’s flagship development is the flourishing 800-acre Sunway Integrated Resort City in Bandar Sunway, located just 20 minutes outside the nation’s capital city of Kuala Lumpur. The township is a veritable “resurrection” from a derelict ex-mining land. Its fully-integrated facilities providing the Group's trademark "Resort Living within the City,” has received a host of awards and international accolades. Sunway Integrated Resort City remains one of the region’s best-known tourist destinations.
Underlying this worthy corporate endeavor is the Group's philosophy of ‘business with a heart’- giving back to the community it serves through its commendable corporate responsibility (CR) initiatives chiefly involving Education, Healthcare and Environment. Some of the more highly regarded CR programmes include the formation of Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah Foundation with an aim to bring high-quality and affordable education to the community and the country; Job Placement Programme for special children; Sunway Safe City Initiative and Recycling Programmes amongst other healthcare and charitable activities.
Be it transforming wasteland into thriving townships, pioneering innovative construction methods, or realizing the aspirations of a fast developing nation and its connection with the rest of the world, Sunway Group is all about: Turning Vision Into Reality.
