Kaodim Group

What Kaodim Group does

Kaodim Group operates an online service marketplace headquartered in Selangor, Malaysia, that connects Southeast Asian consumers with providers of home-related services spanning repair, maintenance, health, wellness, and beauty. Founded in 2014, the platform addresses on-demand convenience needs of urban households by aggregating fragmented local service providers into a single searchable and bookable interface. The customer base consists of individual consumers seeking episodic home services rather than enterprise accounts, while the supply side is composed of independent service professionals and small operators across multiple service categories.

The business operates a classic two-sided marketplace model, monetizing through take-rates or commissions on transactions facilitated between consumers and service providers. Geographic focus is Southeast Asia, with Malaysia as the home market and prior funding activity indicating regional expansion ambitions. The technology stack is centered on a consumer-facing web and mobile platform with provider-side onboarding and job-matching functionality, though specific architecture details are not disclosed in the available data.

Kaodim has raised approximately $17.55M across four disclosed funding rounds from 2015 through 2019, with backing from Square Peg Capital, Susquehanna International Group (SIG), 500 Global, East Ventures, BEENEXT, KK Fund, and Venturra. Leadership is anchored by co-founders Fui Yu Choong (CEO) and Jeffri Cheong (Managing Director), with co-founder Ching Wei Lee also leading iMoney Group. The company operates with 51-100 employees and has not disclosed a subsequent funding round in the more than five years since its Series B extension.
