WHO WE ARE | TCL SWIFTLET FARMING (Design & Build Birdhouse)

The swiftlet farming industry in Malaysia started to gather momentum after the Asian Economic Crisis of 1997 – 1998. During that period, many premises were left vacant and unrented as a result of poor demand and many businesses were closed down then.

Most of these untenanted premises were converted into swiftlet farms which have generated lucrative incomes to the investors. The financial viability of the swiftlet farming has attracted the attention of many businessmen, landlords and investors. The swiftlet farming industry is mushrooming till today since then.

In order to reduce the financial exposure of the investors, TCL has designed birdhouses constructed of steel frames with dry wall systems and insulated with cellulose insulation at a much affordable and lower cost. The risks are very much lower and reduced as the systems offered more flexibility and investors could start small with the dry wall system birdhouse and enlarge / extend the structure after the swiflets starts occupying or yielding incomes to the investors. In such an event that the location is found not suitable, the investor is able to relocate the birdhouse with 80% of the construction materials of the birdhouse reusable. Investors may consider to use the allocated capital for the conventional concrete structure birdhouse to construct a few units of dry wall system birdhouses. The financial risks in such way are much lower and the succeed rate are also enhanced.
