Stakeholder Value Propositions & Investment Structure
Ecoladang operates on a highly integrated, multi-tiered investment model that aligns the long-term incentives of land owners, local communities, franchise partners, and corporate investors. This structure ensures that risk is decentralized and the financial success of the Private Compact Data Space (PCDS) unit directly supports the sustainability and profitability of the micro-farm franchise ecosystem. Our business plan targets the establishment of 50 integrated farms within Malaysia within five years.

Tax Strategy | The goal of achieving profitability within five years aligns with the asset transfer, allowing Ecoladang to execute a tax write-off on the infrastructure, making the transfer a financially clean transition. |
