Incorporated in 1993 and listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia, the company operates across three primary business segments: Moulded Power Supply Cord Sets, Healthcare, and Investment. Through its key manufacturing subsidiary, PT Ho Wah Genting, situated in Batam, Indonesia, the company engineers and produces moulded power supply cord sets; electronic wires and power cables; cord reels; building wires; customized cable assemblies; and copper rods, supplying original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and original design manufacturers (ODMs) within the consumer electronics, electrical appliances, and industrial equipment sectors. In its healthcare division, operating via subsidiaries including HWGB Biotech Sdn Bhd, the company provides dietary and nutritional supplements; biotechnology solutions; diagnostic products; and health technology services. The investment segment, managed through entities such as HWG Capital Sdn Bhd, oversees property holdings, management services, and strategic portfolio assets. Geographically, the group distributes its manufactured electrical goods and consumer products throughout Malaysia, the wider Asia-Pacific region, and North America, with significant export exposure to the United States. In recent strategic developments, Ho Wah Genting Berhad expanded its healthcare and retail presence by agreeing to acquire a 55% equity stake in Advanced Apotheke Sdn Bhd, with purchase consideration restructured via redeemable preference shares; announced a proposed issuance of up to RM60.00 million in redeemable convertible notes to optimize capital structure and fund operational growth; completed a four-to-one share consolidation; and redesignated executive director Lim Wee Kiat as Chief Executive Officer to steer corporate reorganization and business expansion.
