In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, KTC, a provider of market access and coverage of consumer-packaged goods, said the proposed transaction is in line with the company's strategy to strengthen and expand its distribution and logistics capabilities to support future growth. 'The parcels of land identified are strategically located and are intended to be developed into a distribution and warehouse hub to enhance the company's operational efficiency and supply chain management.

The company said the acquisition will be funded by a combination of internally generated funds and bank borrowings 'Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the board is of the view that the proposed transactions will contribute positively to the future earnings and value of the group.
