This household
favorite famed for its wide range of healthy and convenient, preservative-free
canned products, is defining what it means to be sustainable in its longevity,
innovation, eco-consciousness and as a committed and caring contributor, and
enabler of community initiative such as its 10-year strong CSR program.
The theme for
its 125th anniversary celebration and for the Ayam Brand™ Community Care Campaign is We Care, We Are Family.
Over
ten years the Ayam Brand™ Charity Campaign has benefitted close to 18,000
people from 421 charity organizations - providing
them with 3,234,600 healthy meals as part of the brand’s effort to provide
long-term, sustainable and tangible care to those in need through the
contribution of healthy food and enrichment activities aimed at developing
life-skills.
The campaign
included the popular Ayam Brand™ Junior Chef competition which aims to teach
children the important life-skill of cooking, and to inculcate the habit of
making healthier food choices. More photos can be view, click here.

The
Ayam Brand Community Care Campaign is in-line with the Ministry of Health Malaysia’s
efforts to fight obesity by educating and encouraging children to make informed
food choices.
According to Ayam Brand Chairman, Yang Mulia Tunku Dato’
Mu’tamir Bin Tunku Tan Sri Mohamed, the brand
is delighted to see how far, and how far-reaching this community care campaign
has become since it began.
“We are delighted that our annual charity campaign has provided
more than one million meals to people at 421 organizations in Malaysia and
Brunei since its inception, providing them with healthy, nutritious food that
is quick and easy to prepare,” Tunku Dato’ Mu’tamir said.
“Each year, we
plan activities for the children, most often related to cooking and good
nutrition, so that they can learn this important life-skill, increase
self-confidence and become more independent,” said Tunku Dato’ Mu’tamir.
All Ayam Brand™ products are free from added MSG and preservatives,
ready to eat straight from the can, and are certified Halal, suitable for
consumption by Muslims.
“From the time
I started practicing for the Ayam Brand™ Junior Chef competition, my interest
in cooking was stoked. We won the Pahang competition that year, and I just
continued cooking, picking up more skills from my seniors and experimenting
with different cuisines. Thanks to that early inspiration, I have a skill that
is marketable and can help me achieve my dreams,” Moses said via a video
message.

“The children enjoy Ayam Brand™ products as they view
it as a treat. We appreciate it as it is healthy and convenient to prepare. The
Junior Chef competition is a highlight as it has a simple goal – make
outstanding food that is tasty and healthy. Our thanks to Ayam Brand for their
long-term, sustained contribution to so many Malaysian children over the past
10 years,” said Ms Justine.
Joining the children at the event were popular television
host and actress Ms Nina Nadira, and established blogger and entrepreneur, Ms
Sue Lynn who shared their Ayam Brand™
experience.
Ms Sue Lynn shared on turning to Ayam Brand products
to complement her busy lifestyle and her desire to eat healthier, organic food.
“My daily schedule is packed but I make it a point to use more organic products
in my meals because taste, health and quality are important to me. Dinner might
be a salad, to which I add a protein such as Ayam Brand’s latest tuna range in
organic olive oil and organic vegetable broth. It is simple – just pull the
tab, add to salad, and dinner is done. For days when I want a nourishing
pick-me-up, I’ve discovered NutriSUP by Ayam Brand. It is as good as mum’s
recipe! Ayam Brand’s preservatives free and no added MSG products are perfect
for me.”
