What Kokoh Inti Arebama does

PT Kokoh Inti Arebama TBK is an Indonesian publicly listed building materials distributor headquartered in South Jakarta (Graha Mobisel, Jl. Buncit Raya No. 139, Pancoran), operating across three core business segments: KIA ceramic tile distribution (sole distributor for PT Keramika Indonesia Assosiasi, PT KIA Serpih Mas, and PT KIA Keramik Mas since 2004); SCG CBM building materials distribution (cement and related products); and the Belanja Keramik retail chain, which offers granite, ceramics, sanitary ware, vinyl flooring, and tile/granite adhesive from multiple local and international brands in a supermarket-style format. Founded in 2004 and listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange on April 9, 2008 under ticker KOIN, the company has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCG Distribution Co., Ltd. (part of Thailand's Siam Cement Group) since June 3, 2011. The business is supported by three regional warehouses in Cileungsi (Bogor), Karawang, and Surabaya (Gresik), and runs on a SAP enterprise resource planning system for operational management.

The company monetizes primarily through one-time sales of distributed building materials via B2B dealer channels, B2C company-owned retail stores, and, since 2020, through the Mitraruma digital marketplace for home renovation and interior services. Mitraruma launched online in 2020 and added its first offline showroom at Alam Sutera, South Tangerang on June 6, 2023, introducing a transaction-fee revenue stream alongside traditional product distribution. The customer base is horizontally segmented into construction companies and contractors (primary B2B), individual homeowners (primary B2C), and dealers/retailers (channel), served across Java with reported presence in Jabodetabek, Bogor, Surabaya, and Malang. There are no public anchor customer logos, no publicly disclosed pricing, and limited headcount transparency (101–250 employees per firmographic data).

Recent strategic activity indicates a turnaround posture: revenue has been broadly flat (declining modestly from a 2023 peak), while operating losses have compressed sharply — EBITDA improved from a IDR -4.02 trillion loss in 2022 to a IDR -0.26 trillion loss in 2025, and net loss narrowed from IDR -4.88 trillion (2023) to IDR -0.32 trillion (2025) per the disclosed financials. The direction of travel combines continued investment in Mitraruma and Belanja Keramik retail expansion with significantly improving unit economics, positioning Kokoh as a sub-scale but distribution-anchored Indonesian building materials platform within the broader SCG group.
