Housed inside DKSH’s premises in Phnom Penh

DKSH Cambodia was established in 1952 when DKSH began business activities in Phnom Penh. DKSH re-entered Cambodia 43 years later in 1995 after the government’s “open door” policy was implemented following the 1993 general elections. Today, the company is one of Cambodia’s leading business organisations, employing more than 1,400 specialised staff. DKSH covers the country with it’s capillary distribution network, reaching the most remote parts of the country. DKSH’s Business Units Consumer Goods, Healthcare and Technology are already present in Cambodia and Business Unit Performance Materials will be housed inside DKSH’s existing premises in Phnom Penh.
