Company Profile


Established in 2008, Avant-Garde Shipbuilder Sdn Bhd has developed a fine-tuned and successful synergy between innovative technical solutions and solid marine construction design, resulting in new dimensions in detailed shipbuilding production.

As a developing country, Malaysia has endless potential to emerge as a dynamic player in the vast marine industry in terms of shipbuilding, ship-repairing, support services and leisure industries.

Unfortunately, the progress of these lucrative industries is stalled by countless challenges, particularly the stiff regional and global competition. Not only does Malaysia lack of technological advantage to compete on a level ground with pioneer shipbuilding nations such as Japan and Korea, they also do not have the luxury of favorable economies of scale and readily-available cheap labour as China does. Hence, Malaysian shipyards are still developing to build and service more sophisticated seafaring vessels.

Malaysia lags far behind in the international playing field, despite of its 60 years of commendable experience in the marine industry. Therefore, it is crucial for the local industry to focus collectively on one strategic goal – to boost Malaysia to its full maritime potential and this is precisely where Avant-Garde Shipbuilder Sdn. Bhd. comes in, with the initiative to ignite the local maritime scene.

Initially formed under the associated shipping companies, Viva Omega Sdn. Bhd. and Masindra Shipping (M) Sdn. Bhd., the team was assigned with instant services for variety of marine fabrication works. In recognition of the team’s capabilities, both shipping companies elevated the team to be one of the official shipbuilding companies, granting them full support in their venture to new heights. Fueled by refreshing talent and an insatiable desire to achieve milestones in maritime history, Avant-Garde Shipbuilder Sdn. Bhd. evolved phenomenally from ship-repairing to shipbuilding and various degrees of marine constructions. Their acceleration in technical progress has emboldened them to explore more challenging fields such as ship design and hydrostatic report.

As they tackle projects from the veteran forwarding companies, skills and techniques are honed to perfection, enabling the company to raise their standards. In time, the company assets flourished favorably, inspiring the man power to achieve top-notch quality in all repairing and construction projects.
