In line with Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin’s’ call to ‘Spend for Malaysia’ amidst the pandemic which affected the economy, Tesco Stores (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd has reciprocated by supporting its local suppliers through its ‘Buy Malaysian Products’ campaign at its stores.
Malaysians who are searching for a variety of locally-made products can look for them at Tesco stores nationwide. Tesco has been a long-term supporter of locally-made products with more than 600 local suppliers supplying their products to its stores.
Tesco Chief Operating Officer, Sushmita Paul said the campaign was significant as it affirms their commitment to helping the economy and the SMEs to recover.
Sushmita said 84% of sales generated for Tesco Own Brand as of the end of its financial year 2019 was from the locally-made products. She added their locally produced top selling products include Tesco Own Brand poultry frozen range of nuggets, fried chicken, burger patties, sausages, UHT Milk and Chocomalt amongst others.
