What Pesona Metro Holdings does

Pesona Metro Holdings Berhad is a Malaysia-based, Bursa Malaysia Main Market-listed construction and property development group (stock code 8311, ticker PESONA) headquartered in Seri Kembangan, Selangor. The group's core business is construction services delivered to both public and private sector clients across Peninsular Malaysia, with demonstrated capabilities in high-rise residential buildings, commercial towers, highways, bridges, and river rehabilitation and beautification projects. Its project portfolio includes flagship developments such as Central Plaza @ I-City (RM488 million contract), Eaton Residences on Jalan Kia Peng (RM402 million), the West Coast Expressway Section 6 (RM371.42 million), the UniSZA teaching hospital in Terengganu (RM313.85 million), the Port Klang Bridge, and multiple Cyberjaya residential and mixed-use schemes including Third Avenue and Lakefront Homes.

The group's operating model is project-based B2B construction, generating revenue through one-time tenders and joint ventures rather than recurring contracts. Distribution runs through direct government tenders, direct private developer contracts, and strategic JVs (e.g., with Pembinaan Kaleigh Sdn Bhd, GPQ Sdn Bhd, and Semarak Korporat Sdn Bhd). The company also operates a property development arm — producing projects such as Residensi Gen, Mirai Kajang, Tria Seputeh, Ativo Suites Damansara, and Aman Bukit Jalil Residence — and has expanded via the 2015 acquisitions of Selasih Asli Sdn Bhd (90% stake, RM60 million, concession business) and SEP Resources (M) Sdn Bhd (RM29.15 million, resources). The Wie brothers (Wie Hock Beng and Wie Hock Kiong) control approximately 60.83% of the company. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, reflecting a contract-by-contract tender pricing model with both public agencies and private developers as the customer base.

Others
