At times, the best management approach is to be on the ground. In early June, BPlant Chief Executive Officer Datuk Zulkarnain Md Eusope conducted his first official visit to our operating units in Kedah since assuming the CEO role on June 1.

Over a two-day itinerary, Datuk Zulkarnain toured key plantation assets in the northern peninsula, namely Kuala Muda Estate, Stothard Estate, Batu Pekaka Estate, and BMR Estate.

At each location, estate managers provided valuable insights into their operations, performance, and future strategies to enhance productivity. Datuk Zulkarnain also took the opportunity to engage directly with staff, fostering stronger connections and on-site understanding.
