Teck Guan Group has been a trailblazer in cocoa cultivation, fermentation, and bean drying in the country since the mid-1950s. Since 1975, the cocoa beans harvested from our estates have been the key raw materials for our two cocoa grinding factories: Majulah Koko Tawau Sdn Bhd and Cacao Paramount Sdn Bhd.
​
Our premier cocoa estate, Tawau Cocoa Estate, spans 1,000 acres and boasts high-yield cocoa production. Planted on nutrient-rich volcanic soil with an ideal texture, our hybrid trees primarily consist of the Amelonado species (known for its superior chocolate flavor and only grown in two remaining areas in Malaysia), PBC 123 (Prang Besar Cocoa), BR 25 (Balung River), and TG (Teck Guan) clonal plants. These clonal plants are meticulously selected for their high yield, disease resistance, and large bean size (averaging below 90 beans per 100 grams compared to 100 beans for SMC 1A grade beans). Coupled with our unique fermentation and drying techniques, these characteristics enable our cocoa beans to fetch a premium price in international markets.
