Kumpulan Fima Berhad ("KFima") was incorporated by the Malaysian Government on 24th February 1972 under the name Fima Sdn Bhd. KFima's first business was canning of pineapples when Pineapple Cannery of Malaysia (PCM) was organised as KFima's wholly owned subsidiary. KFima was converted to a public company and changed its name to Kumpulan Fima Berhad.
