We are pleased to announce that on December 21, 2018, Advantage Partners Asia Fund and affiliated entities (“AP Funds”) acquired EKO Grp Industries Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (“EKO” or the “Company”), a metal solution provider specializing in aluminum and zinc die casting in Malaysia.

EKO manufactures metal components for multinational corporations in diversified product categories such as communication, security and medical.

EKO currently operates out of two plants in Penang, Malaysia with planned expansion into a new facility under construction in Kedah, Malaysia.

AP Funds were attracted to EKO because of its excellent operational capabilities that have given the Company its reputation as a trusted and competitive supplier to multinational corporations in fast growing product segments. Post investment, AP Funds will work closely with EKO management to accelerate the Company’s growth through the upgrading of its corporate structure and resources.
