Exploring PDO Products: A True European Heritage

One key highlight of the Premium European products campaign is the use of PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) products – guaranteeing quality and authenticity. PDO label ensures that the product comes from a specific geographical region and adheres to traditional production methods, preserving its cultural heritage and authenticity

Though strictly regulated by the European Union, this certification safeguards the products' unique qualities providing consumers with confidence in their purity and authenticity.

These carefully crafted products carry the essence of their origins, offering a taste of the unique climates and traditions they come from. Among them, the PDO Konservolia Rovion table olives from central Greece truly stand out. The Rovies municipality is well known for these olives, which have a unique taste and texture due to the area’s particular microclimate. These conditions make the flesh of the olive crispy with a dark green color and a characteristic aroma of olive oil.

PDO Viannos olive oil from Crete was also featured. Renowned for its rich golden color and smooth texture, Viannos olive oil embodies the ancient olive farming art practiced on the island for centuries. With its PDO certification, this 'liquid gold' is produced with rigorous adherence to the Greek tradition, adding to the hallowed name for olive oil worldwide.

Latvian dairy products took center stage, with cream cheese and semi-hard cheeses generating a lot of attraction. Latvia's dairy sector impressed influencers with a variety of cream cheese options, ranging from traditional recipes to more innovative and creative flavors.

Additionally, Latvian salty snacks, such as hand-picked potato chips, were noteworthy for their natural ingredients and satisfying crunch.&nbsp; These artisanal snacks showcased Latvia's rich food culture and highlighted the country's emphasis on using locally sourced, high-quality ingredients. 

Furthermore, the unique flavors and textures offered a refreshing departure from mass-produced snack options, making them a standout.

Influencers Embrace Premium European Products

Malaysian influencers posted on social media how these premium products can fit into their daily lives, featuring Greek and Latvian products in local and fusion recipes. Influencers are showcasing the versatility of European produce, highlighting that from using PDO-certified olive oils to adding Latvian chocolate as a treat, it is possible to serve the best-quality traditional dish made from Europe. Instagram influencers also showed how the products they tried could be used in cooking or enjoyed as standalone snacks.

They kicked things off with an exclusive tasting event earlier this year on 17 July 2024, where they had their first taste, then took the goodies home to try them out in their own kitchens. Excited to share, they turned to social media, giving their followers a personal take on these new flavors and quality ingredients.

Influencers have successfully positioned themselves through their various social media platforms as the message bearer of Premium European Products. Enthusiastic reviews and stunning photography have sparked discussions among foodies who prioritize quality and authenticity in what they buy.

Some of the influencers participating include <a href="https://www.instagram.com/shuyilee">Shu Yi Lee</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/juliana__728/">Juliana</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/foodilifecious">Rachael Loh</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nomnomwithjaymie?igsh=MWxwY2d1Y3Bsc2Vodg%3D%3D">Nomnom With Jaymie</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/yunxii4134/">Angel Chai</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sunshinekelly2988/">Sunshine Kelly</a>, and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/yesterdayqiqi_l?utm_medium=copy_link">Yesterday Qiqi</a>.

The Premium European Products campaign is more than just a luxury showcase of foods: it aims to elevate the profile of European products in these markets by raising awareness, enhancing recognition, increasing consumption, and boosting exports. EU regulations ensure meticulous safety protocols, with stringent controls on pesticide use and strict hygiene standards in processing facilities. This prioritization of safety guarantees consumer trust in premium products. This means, for consumers, a guarantee of trust when buying any products with the PDO label.

Under the leadership of ETHEAS and LDC, this effort strives to respect the rich European cultural heritage and, at the same time, meet modern requirements of quality and safety when it comes to agricultural products.&nbsp;

For more than 300 cooperatives in Greece, ETHEAS facilitates rural development and supports member cooperatives in exporting traditional products worldwide. The Latvian Dairy Committee (LDC), established in 1995, represents Latvian dairy processing sector and aims to protect its interests. It consists of 17 members processing approximately 80% of industrially produced milk in Latvia.

The current expansion of Premium European Products is entering new markets, with Malaysia, South Korea, and Canada next in line to discover these exceptional offerings. The plan is to raise awareness of these European treasures, increasing their visibility on consumers' palates and export tables, ranging from PDO olive oils from Greece to chocolates from Latvia.

Premium European Products sets the standard for excellence in food production with its campaign tagline: “Better Knowledge, Better Choices.” The enthusiastic participation of Malaysian influencers in this campaign marks just the beginning of a more significant movement to spotlight the finest products Europe has to offer.

Retail data analytics platform SYCARDA and Singapore-headquartered digital solutions provider CUE signed an MoU on February 2 to begin an era of innovative collaboration to produce more comprehensive and effective retail solutions across Malaysia, Singapore, and eventually the rest of Asia.

Both organisations have consistently prioritised their dedication to adding value to clients’ systems and ways of working towards more dynamic retail data solutions, knowledge exchange in data analytics, visual AI, and machine learning. Upon officiating this collaboration, SYCARDA and CUE will integrate their expertise and develop a bespoke retail solution to address a Malaysian grocery chain’s pilferage and sweethearting issue.

SYCARDA’s mission is to assist traditional brick-and-mortar retailers to reduce their costs and increase their revenue in a rapidly challenging retail landscape by using data analytics and business intelligence. The platform is completely independent and can be used across most Points-of-Sale (POS) without the need for integration, which enabled SYCARDA to be deployed across 2,000 retail and food and beverage outlets across Southeast Asia.

Similarly, CUE Group’s customised and flexible commerce solutions and range of practice in various industries speak to its understanding of the value of research and development. From standardising security systems to improving the customer journey with visual AI, CUE Group’s solutions result in-depth consumer tracking and seamless transactions, spelling the difference for businesses across the food and beverage, automotive, FMCG, and pharmaceutical industries. Products such as RetailX enable retailers to improve and tailor their in-store experiences to better serve their customers, as well as to develop an accurate target audience profile that will boost precision marketing strategies.

With the rest of 2023 predicted to be a time of slow economic recovery in Asia, there is some room for market confidence with declining inflation rates. Still, with many businesses suffering an average pilferage rate of 5%, solutions more intelligent and enterprising than supply chain vigilance are required. By combining CUE’s computer vision analytics and SYCARDA’s POS data points, this partnership enables businesses to obtain more accurate and actionable insights into their business operations and customer experience.

“We see that the SME retail sector tends to go disappointingly under-served, with many of its problems unaddressed,” said Vernon Chua, CEO of SYCARDA. “What we’re hoping to create together [with CUE] is a way to see these problems and solve them pretty much as they happen – more than saving money, it’s about making businesses the best they can be and at an affordable rate that allows them to multiply their ROI.”

“We see a fellow enabler in SYCARDA and we’re optimistic about where this partnership can take the Southeast Asian market,” said Zainudin Nordin, Executive Director of CUE Group, SEA. “Neither of us is a big proponent of development for development’s sake; just as our services and solutions [at CUE] are ‘smart’ in the technological sense, we strive to also fulfill that in the business sense.”

Through their strategic partnership, E3Hub, an entrepreneur networking and ecosystem platform operated by E3Capital is now offering its consumer goods' entrepreneurs, product and brand owners, access to offline sales opportunities by listing their products in Vmart's Smart IoT Vending Machines located in offices, residences, sales galleries, and service centres. 

This collaboration aims to enhance visibility, foster networking, and democratise product accessibility, enabling aspiring businesses to reach a wide but targeted audience while exploring domestic and international expansion opportunities through the showcase of these products in the machines situated in strategic locations.

The announcement was made in E3Capital's recent Business Networking event held on 21st July 2023, marking a significant milestone in the entrepreneurial ecosystem's growth that will now see more brands and products having more extensive channels offline to reach their target customers and audience, besides the usual digital advertising channels and online marketplaces.

E3Capital is an entrepreneurial powerhouse, uniting passionate entrepreneurs through Industry PowerTeams, under the guidance of the National PowerTeam Director, alongside E3Hubs Malaysia Leadership Team and Core Management Team (CMT). This entrepreneur-focused community has been instrumental in the development and upscaling of over 7000+ startups and SMEs across Asia.

The VMart Merchant Program offered by Vendvision aims to solve that by offering access to place products in locations that appeal directly to the merchant's target market at a much afforable rate, savings much money from just advertising on typical online channels such as Meta and Tiktok.

This innovative approach provides offline access to a wider audience and unlocks the potential for domestic and international expansion.

PETALING JAYA: Australia-based supermarket chain operator Coles Supermarkets, owned by Coles Group Ltd, has officially launched its presence in Malaysia through an exclusive partnership with Jaya Grocer Holdings Sdn Bhd, introducing a diverse collection of 200 products.

Simultaneously, this deal will enable Jaya Grocer to broaden its Australian product offering by incorporating over 1,000 products from various Australian-based brands, including Coles.

Jaya Grocer deputy chief executive officer Daniel Teng said this partnership is a strategic decision by the groceries chain operator to serve the large Australian expat community.

“We are happy to have a great selection of quality Australian products made available to our customers in addition to our already wide range of offerings,” Teng said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Coles general manager for exports and fresh commercial Will Mulholland said Coles currently exports to over 30 countries around the world and is proud to serve the Malaysian market.

“We are delighted with our product portfolio. We invest significant time and effort into developing delicious, high-quality Australian products under the Coles brand and we are thrilled to be here in Malaysia to share our offerings,” Mulholland said at the sidelines of the memorandum of understanding signing ceremony between both supermarket chain operators yesterday.

When asked about the choice of Malaysia, he stated that it was primarily due to the considerable demand for high-quality products in the country.

With no specific figure, Mulholland said Coles expects to expand its product offerings gradually in the future.

“Our product range currently is predominantly in the grocery aisles. We hope to grow it to a broader range of products, including Australian dairy products and many others,” Mulholland further explained.

According to him, Coles has well over 1,000 products under its portfolio, giving it ample room to expand its offerings in Malaysia. Mulholland said this partnership with Jaya Grocer is seen as a long-term investment of about five to 10 years.

“Our approach is to choose a quality partner and work with them to grow our brand. That is what we have done here and in other markets around South-East Asia.”

The signing ceremony was witnessed by Australian Deputy High Commissioner to Malaysia Clare Gatehouse.

Coles, which operates over 800 supermarkets in Australia, is an omni-channel retailer selling products including fresh food, groceries and liquor.

As an entrepreneur, you make critical decisions every day — from sourcing supplies to getting the best prices for them.

For instance, would it make more sense to place orders for new supplies on e-commerce sites or to pick them up at a brick-and-mortar store?

There are upsides and downsides to both. At e-commerce sites, getting what you want is just a click away.

However, there is no way to properly examine a product to ensure quality. It also takes time for the product to be delivered to you.

At a brick-and-mortar store, you get to check the items that you know best suit your customers’ needs before placing an order. On the other hand, this may entail going into multiple stores before you get what you are looking for, and at the prices you believe are reasonable.

However, such concerns have become a thing of the past. Now, with just the tab of an app, a business owner can be directly connected to more than 2,500 suppliers, all of which are based in one central location — GM Klang, Malaysia’s biggest wholesale mall.

This gives business owners a wider selection of products to choose from and the freedom to physically examine each product at a one-stop shop.

The app also gives the business owner the option of uploading pictures of items he is looking for so the suppliers can try to meet his needs.

Essentially, the GM Klang app combines the advantages of e-commerce with physical stores for the benefit of businesses.

The app helps business owners in several ways. It matches them with suppliers of multiple categories of products, enables them to set an appropriate time to view the products and gives users the option to connect directly with a support team that can provide immediate assistance.

Most of all, it is convenient and user-friendly.

This is a key function of the app. It connects a business owner with a supplier based on what he is looking for.

All the user has to do is upload pictures of the items of his choice on the app. The GM Klang management then searches its list of suppliers for those that are most likely to have the products sought by the business owner.

This takes away the need for the business owner to go from store to store to find what he needs or to look for suitable alternatives.

Once the business owner has decided on all the products he needs, he can use the app to set a date and time when he can visit the GM Klang mall to examine the products and meet potential suppliers.

For those who are unable to visit the mall, the wholesaler can arrange for a video or photo of the item to be sent to the business owner. There is no charge for this service.

GM Klang has a studio, complete with proper lighting and backdrop, to enable business owners to hold livestream shopping sessions free of charge with their customers upon booking.

This gives the business owner a logistical advantage. Regardless of which city or state his business is based, he has to visit only one place to look at the products he needs or pick up his purchases.

If the business owner has trouble using the relevant functions of the app or he has more questions, there is a messaging system that enables him to communicate with the support team in real time.

The app has been designed for easy navigation. It takes only a few simple steps to upload pictures of items they seek or to make appointments.

The app works on smartphones so users can easily reach their suppliers, select items, place orders and regularly check for updates anytime, anywhere.

<h1>Apt addition to GM Klang’s many services</h1>Malaysia’s biggest wholesale mall has introduced a new app that enables business owners to search for the most suitable suppliers of items they seek.As an entrepreneur, you make critical decisions every day — from sourcing supplies to getting the best prices for them.For instance, would it make more sense to place orders for new supplies on e-commerce sites or to pick them up at a brick-and-mortar store?There are upsides and downsides to both. At e-commerce sites, getting what you want is just a click away.However, there is no way to properly examine a product to ensure quality. It also takes time for the product to be delivered to you.At a brick-and-mortar store, you get to check the items that you know best suit your customers’ needs before placing an order. On the other hand, this may entail going into multiple stores before you get what you are looking for, and at the prices you believe are reasonable.However, such concerns have become a thing of the past.
