UIE Plc is a Danish holding company that invests in agricultural businesses, with its most important asset being a large stake in United Plantations Berhad, a Malaysian palm oil and coconut oil producer. Palm oil is used in food products, cosmetics, and cleaning supplies around the world, making it one of the most widely consumed vegetable oils. United Plantations is known for running some of the most efficient and sustainably certified palm oil plantations in the industry.

UIE makes money through dividends and returns from its investments, particularly from United Plantations' plantation and milling operations in Malaysia and Indonesia. The company is relatively small by global standards but benefits from United Plantations' low-cost production and strong sustainability certifications, which help it sell to quality-conscious food companies in Europe and Asia. The main risk the business faces is the volatile price of palm oil on global commodity markets, which directly affects profits regardless of how well the plantations are managed.
