About Me
Martin Lavoo is a grandson of the late Singaporean paints tycoon Goh Cheng Liang, who died in August 2025 at age 98. The Goh family draws the bulk of its wealth from a majority stake in Japan's Nippon Paint Holdings, one of the world's largest paint manufacturers. Martin, together with his brother and four cousins, inherited the bulk of their grandfather's fortune. His mother is Chiat Jin, the only daughter of the late patriarch who started making paints in a small factory in Singapore before partnering with Nippon Paint in 1962. His uncle, Hup Jin, is the chairman of Nippon Paint. In 2013, Martin cofounded Sustenir Agriculture, an urban farming enterprise in Singapore.
