Congratulations to F&N Celebrates 140 Years with a Tribute to its Heritage and Unwavering Support by Malaysians

 

Fraser & Neave Holdings Bhd (‘F&NHB’ or ‘Group’), a name synonymous with tradition and excellence, proudly marks the brand’s 140th anniversary with a heartfelt theme that resonates deeply with the Malaysian community – “Kisah Kita… Selamanya.”

F&NHB's commitment to delivering "Pure Enjoyment, Pure Goodness" with its diverse range of beloved brands has woven an enduring tapestry of shared memories. 

The anniversary theme, "Kisah Kita… Selamanya," captures the essence of these cherished traditions, where F&N products have served as catalysts for countless heartwarming connections among loved ones. 

“F&N is honoured to stand as steadfast companions for generations of Malaysians. As we celebrate our heritage, we are also excited for the years ahead, embracing an era of sustainable growth and transformation,” affirmed F&NHB Chief Executive Officer Lim Yew Hoe. 

Today, F&NHB is present in 89 countries and continues to evolve its business through strategic acquisitions and expanding its footprint across the food and beverages value chain. Fortified by the recent integration of Sri Nona and Cocoaland products into its portfolio, the Halal Packaged Food sector is a promising pillar of growth for F&NHB. This move enables F&NHB to cater to diverse tastes and preferences, further solidifying its position as the market leader. 

As the Group continue its growth journey, F&NHB’s commitment to sustainability takes centre stage as it shapes the landscape of Malaysia's future. 

Underlining this commitment, Lim shared that the Group is actively developing the largest integrated dairy farm in Malaysia, spanning over 2,726 hectares in Gemas, Negeri Sembilan, that will produce 100 million litres of fresh milk annually in Phase 1 for local and international markets, fulfilling F&NHB’s aspiration to put fresh milk into every home in Malaysia. 

Beyond the dairy farm, F&NHB's plans for feed crop farming within the facility align with the government's goal of reducing the nation's dependence on imported feed. The farm will also be designed around sustainable agriculture, circular economy practices, and green technology. 

Since 2020, F&N has progressively reduced its reliance on fossil fuels by installing one of Malaysia’s largest rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems at its facilities. With 11,000 solar panels at its Shah Alam plant, the generated solar energy now accounts for more than half of the electricity demand for producing 100PLUS, Malaysia’s No. 1 Isotonic beverage.

Following this milestone, 100PLUS will carry the “Solar” emblem across its packaging. 

Apart from renewable energy, F&N is committed to reducing its environmental impact throughout its value chain. This includes a roadmap to use 100% RSPO Certified Sustainable Palm Oil by 2025 and enhancing the circularity of its product packaging. For 2023, the Group will use 60% Certified Sustainable Palm Oil and 40% RSPO credits. Meanwhile, 25% of its beverage and dairy packaging is sourced from recycled material. F&N is also a long-time champion of recycling awareness among school children through the F&N School Recycling Programme involving 1,300 schools nationwide. 

F&NHB's dedication to sustainability has positioned F&NHB in the global top 1 percentile of its Food and Beverage Supersector for FTSE4GOOD ESG score in the June 2023 review by Bursa Malaysia, a testament to the company’s Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices. 

"We take this accolade with pride and a sense of responsibility to do even better for our future generations. As we pursue profitable growth, we remain cognisant that our goals must be achieved in the most sustainable manner," stated F&NHB's Chairman, Y.A.M. Tengku Syarif Bendahara Perlis Syed Badarudin Jamalullail. 

“All the achievements in the past and progress for the future can only be possible with our loyal customers’ unconditional support over the decades. We look ahead to an exciting future where we continue building value for our stakeholders by creating a better business, society, and planet together, hand in hand with the communities we serve,” concluded Y.A.M. Tengku Syed Badarudin Jamalullail. 

The F&N 140th Anniversary celebration will be ongoing from the 23rd to 27th August 2023 with a special roadshow at the Oval Atrium, LG Concourse Level, at 1Utama Shopping Centre. Guests can create memories with F&N through the exciting activities in ’Pekan F&N’. Customers also stand a chance to win one of the three limited edition Vespa scooters during the F&N 140th Anniversary roadshow. 

The celebration was officiated by F&NHB’s Chairman, Y.A.M. Tengku Syed Badarudin Jamalullail, Mr. Hui Choon Kit, Chief Executive Officer of Fraser and Neave, Limited, alongside Mr. Lim Yew Hoe, Chief Executive Officer of F&NHB and several members of the F&NHB Board. Also present were 100PLUS ambassadors Datuk Wira Lee Chong Wei and Dato’ Muhammad Azizulhasni bin Awang, who participated in the anniversary celebrations together with roadshow attendees.

In both good and challenging times, we Malaysians are always resilient, we work incredibly hard, giving our best to better the lives of those around us. We are excited to collaborate with Shuib as we share these values and a common passion for a great cup of ‘kopi padu’ to help us power through the day,” added Fiona. 

 

In conjunction with Hari Malaysia celebrations, SUPER™ is thrilled to announce the ‘Semarakkan Hari Malaysia’ contest running from 16 August - 30 September 2023.

Positive Parenting | Malaysia’s First Expert-Endorsed 360° Growth & Development Toolkit for Parents And Children

 

As reported in the latest National Health and Morbidity Survey 2022, Malaysian children continue to suffer from the double burden of malnutrition. What is more alarming is that a whopping 80.3% of parents are unaware if their child is overweight, and 74.4% are unaware if their child is too thin for their height. 

In addition to nutritional deficiencies, 7.4% of children under the age of five face delays in the development of crucial skills like speech skills, social skills, and fine and gross motor skills.

With this in mind, Positive Parenting, by the Malaysian Paediatric Association (MPA) has launched the 360° Growth & Development Toolkit, an all-in-one reference toolkit developed by key medical experts designed specifically to help Malaysian parents track and monitor their child’s growth and development from birth to five years of age. This toolkit is available in English, with pull-out materials containing both Bahasa Malaysia and English content.

Combining comprehensive growth and development trackers, this toolkit is all about educating parents, especially the first-timers, on putting children on the path to a healthy future during their earliest months and years. With an integral focus on four essential components: Child Growth, Child Development, Child Health, and Child Nutrition and Healthy Living, this toolkit also features integrated QR codes to provide easy access to additional reading resources.

In his opening speech, Datuk Dr Zulkifli Ismail, Consultant Paediatrician and Chairman of the Positive Parenting Management Committee, also shared “The toolkit will be distributed nationwide and can be redeemed for free at participating clinics. Parents can also request for a delivery of the toolkit from Positive Parenting with a minimal postage and handling charge. You can learn more about this toolkit by visiting Positive Parenting’s website.”

Officiating the momentous launch event was Yang Berhormat Dato’ Sri Hajah Nancy Shukri, the Malaysian Minister of Women, Family, and Community Development, together with key healthcare and medical experts, child educators and relevant industry stakeholders.

Yang Berhormat Dato’ Sri Hajah Nancy Shukri voiced her keen support on this novel toolkit in her speech, “Let us embrace this new initiative with enthusiasm and commitment, ensuring that every child in Malaysia receives the opportunity to thrive and reach their full potential.” She further added, “I believe that these kinds of initiatives will play a crucial role in helping parents navigate this important period in their child’s life, and act as an invaluable resource that will shape the lives of countless children and pave the way for a brighter future for our nation.”

Another key highlight of the launch was a media dialogue featuring panellists, Datuk Dr Zulkifli Ismail, Dr Norazlin Kamal Nor, Dr Cindy Chan Su Huay and Dr Roseline Yap Wai Kuan, all of whom were behind the development of the Positive Parenting 360° Growth & Development Toolkit. 

During the dialogue, the panellists answered questions about the current status of children’s health, growth and development in Malaysia post-pandemic, as well as the rationale behind the introduction of the toolkit. 

The panellists also urged all stakeholders to work together in promoting child health in Malaysia and hoped that the 360° Growth & Development Toolkit will benefit many parents out there in their parenting journey.

360° Growth & Development Toolkit

The official launch of the 360° Growth & Development Toolkit marks a significant step forward in transforming the approach of Malaysian parents towards their child’s growth and development. Positive Parenting remains dedicated to providing parents with the necessary resources and support to foster a healthy and nurturing environment for their children.
