Expanding Business Network, BUAH Prepares to Add Branches in Sulawesi and Sumatra
JAKARTA. PT Segar Kumala Indonesia Tbk (BUAH) aims to continue its performance growth this year. BUAH’s management has prepared several strategies to ensure financial performance continues to grow in 2026 amid global geopolitical uncertainties.
Based on the financial report released last week, Segar Kumala Indonesia recorded net sales of Rp 3.27 trillion in 2025. This figure increased by 47.30% year-on-year compared to net sales of Rp 2.22 trillion in 2024.
Alongside the increase in top-line performance, BUAH recorded a 49.51% increase in cost of goods sold, from Rp 2.04 trillion in 2024 to Rp 3.05 trillion in 2025.
From the bottom-line perspective, BUAH achieved a net profit of Rp 50 billion last year. This figure grew by 42.9% compared to the 2024 net profit of Rp 35 billion.
Impact of the Middle East Crisis
Amid global geopolitical uncertainties due to the war in the Middle East region, Renny stated that the outlook for fruit trading ahead is still overshadowed by several challenges. This is because volatility in fuel oil (BBM) prices could significantly raise the company’s production costs. “This certainly poses a heavy challenge in maintaining price stability in the market,” she added.
To address this issue, according to Renny, Segar Kumala Indonesia will continue to monitor changes in public purchasing power while formulating the most appropriate price mitigation scheme.
In 2025, the Java Island market still dominated BUAH’s sales, reaching Rp 2.14 trillion, followed by Sumatra at Rp 330.21 billion, Sulawesi at Rp 329.91 billion, Kalimantan at Rp 186.34 billion, and other cities at Rp 282.08 billion.
Segar Kumala Indonesia’s management is also focusing on strengthening penetration of products that align with current market needs, while maximising potential in the regions.
Amid the Middle East war that is unlikely to end in the near future, BUAH is also prioritising the quality of business growth over quantity. With relatively high market risks, they have set a more moderate sales growth target for this year, in the single digits at 3%–4% compared to last year’s realisation. “Because the company’s current priority is profitability,” said Renny.
Segar Kumala Indonesia is also striving to improve its internal cost structure to drive an increase in net profit margin to a target of 8%–10%. BUAH’s management is optimistic about achieving the performance targets to ensure the company remains healthy and competitive.
