So you’ve heard living in a floating city is a gamble with one’s own life, imagine the challenging sea conditions and knowing that there is no supermarket anywhere nearby. Food provision becomes vital.

It all started from a mini grocery, narrow storefront, but, determined to deliver “gold standards” of products and services. That’s how KEMMAS come from. The word ‘MAS’ in Malay translates to gold. The essence of Kemmas is to treat others as you would like be treated - customer focus, integrity, honesty, passion of work, professionalism, efficiency, value people and constant improvement.

Throughout the years, Mr Yang Yoon Kwan (Y.K., founder and chairman of Kemmas) stepped foot on some of the oil rigs and platforms in Malaysia and became captivated with how to best deliver and to achieve better and safer living.

Kemmas is now the top ship chandler and offshore supplier for all necessities including food, household chemical, marine spare parts and rental containers. We provide one-stop-solutions to oil rigs, platforms, working vessels across Malaysia ports, for example Kemaman Supply Base (KSB), Tok Bali Supply Base (TBSB), Johor Port, Port Klang, Kuantan Port, Bintulu Port and Labuan Port.
