Borneo Oil Berhad is a Malaysian investment holding company whose core activities are carried out through three main business divisions: Food and Franchise Operations, Property Investment and Management, and Resources and Sustainable Energy. As a holding company, it primarily provides corporate and management services to its group subsidiaries rather than operating businesses directly.[2][5]
## Core business segments
The Food and Franchise Operations segment is the main revenue contributor and covers ownership and operation of quick-service restaurant chains, food manufacturing, franchise operations, and distribution of food products with related support activities.[2][5] This includes well-known brands under the group’s portfolio and is housed mainly within food-focused subsidiaries such as The Borneo Food Group Sdn. Bhd. and related entities.[3][5]
The Property Investment and Management segment concentrates on acquiring, owning, and managing real estate on a long-term basis to enhance investment returns.[3][5] This segment undertakes property maintenance and active portfolio management to support and integrate with the broader business ecosystem of the group.[3][5]
The Resources and Sustainable Energy segment involves mining and the supply of mineral resources, together with related sustainable energy initiatives.[2][5] Activities in this segment, including mineral extraction and associated projects, are positioned as a growth pillar that complements and diversifies the group’s more mature food and property divisions.[2][5]

At the holding company level, Borneo Oil Berhad’s principal role is investment holding combined with the provision of corporate and management services to its subsidiaries, rather than undertaking front-line commercial operations.[2][4] Operating activities in food, property, and resources are conducted mainly through key subsidiaries such as Borneo Oil Corporation Sdn.
