Malaysian Industrial Development Finance Berhad has provided RM13.4 million in Islamic financing to GAPIMA Sdn Bhd under the Soft Financing Scheme for Automation and Modernisation (SFSAMi) to part-finance the acquisition of a new industrial property in Klang, Selangor.
The financing will support GAPIMA’s purchase of a semi-detached industrial building and factory located at 2A, Jalan Anding 3/KU5, with a total purchase price of RM14.896 million. The new facility forms part of GAPIMA’s ongoing upgrading and expansion programme, aimed at enhancing logistics efficiency, strengthening its warehousing capabilities and providing additional capacity to support the company’s continued growth.
Established in 1974, GAPIMA has evolved from its beginnings in forwarding and stevedoring at Penang Port into an integrated logistics provider offering project logistics, freight forwarding, multimodal transportation and warehousing solutions. Today, the company operates a network of 10 offices and warehouses nationwide, with its headquarters owned by the company and its other locations leased from third parties.
The acquisition represents an important step in GAPIMA’s efforts to strengthen its physical infrastructure alongside the continued development of its business. With operations spanning key locations across Peninsular and East Malaysia, the company continues to expand its operational capabilities while investing in its people and digital skills to support greater efficiency.
Muhammad Taufiq bin Johari, Chief Executive Officer of GAPIMA Sdn Bhd, said “This investment will strengthen our warehousing and logistics capabilities, improve operational efficiency and provide us with additional capacity as we continue to grow. We are incredibly grateful to MIDF for believing in our vision and helping us to take this next big step”
