Our oresco story of durian and technology.

The ORESCO Story

Many years ago, a young kampung boy stumbled upon a curious object near his home. It was green and somewhat round, with a shell of razor-sharp thorns. He later discovered from his Grandma that it was a fruit called ‘durian’. This durian had fallen from his neighbour’s tree. Tickled by the boy’s curiosity, the neighbour gifted the durian to him. He tasted the durian for the first time and instantly fell in love with its unique flavour. From the seed of that same durian he ate, the young kampung boy planted his first durian tree.

Today, he is helping others to realise their durian dreams too.

From Nature to Nature

Technology has created so many man-made marvels in today’s civilisation. But the natural ecosystem remains at the heart of everything – with agriculture providing food, nourishment, and economic opportunities to us all.

Take the Blackthorn Durian for example. Of all the places in the world, Malaysia has the perfect conditions to grow this rare and delicious fruit. Climate, soil, geographical conditions – everything is just right.

With durians being sought after worldwide today, nature has presented us with a massive potential to improve Malaysian lives and livelihoods – thereby driving our country’s economy. The opportunities are varied, ranging from exporting durians, developing durian-related products, and promoting agritourism.

At ORESCO, we look at these as gifts from nature, treating them with great care and respect. We believe that what we take from nature, we must return. To preserve that delicate natural balance, we are committed to using only eco-friendly agricultural methods – ensuring that the durians we grow are tasty, healthy and sustainable.

Our Mission

To combine cutting-edge agricultural technology, deep management expertise with our natural resources to produce the highest quality durians.
