- First Resources Limited (SGX:EB5; OTC:FTROF), an investment holding company founded in 1992 and headquartered in Singapore, ranks among the leading palm oil producers in Indonesia, where it cultivates and maintains over 200,000 hectares of oil palm plantations across Riau, East Kalimantan, and West Kalimantan provinces; harvests fresh fruit bunches; and operates palm oil mills to produce crude palm oil and palm kernel. The company refines crude palm oil through fractionation, biodiesel, and kernel crushing facilities into higher-value products including refined bleached and deodorized palm oil, RBD palm olein, RBD palm stearin, palm kernel oil, palm kernel expeller, palm fatty acid distillate, crude glycerin, and palm-based methyl ester biodiesel; its products adhere to Palm Oil Refiners Association of Malaysia standards, hold International Sustainable Carbon Certification for select items, and serve refiners, traders, brokers, and fast-moving consumer goods companies in domestic Indonesian and international markets including Europe, China, and Malaysia. As a subsidiary of Eight Capital Inc., First Resources operates in the plantations and palm oil mills segment alongside refinery and processing; recent developments include the 2025 completion of its acquisition of the remaining public shares in PT Austindo Nusantara Jaya Tbk via mandatory tender offer, achieving 95.92% ownership to expand upstream hectarage by 25% and boost crude palm oil output toward 1.25 million tonnes annually for enhanced feedstock security, alongside an internal restructuring in August 2025 transferring its stake in PT ASK to subsidiary PT Ciliandra Perkasa for US$373 million to consolidate control.
