Singapore-based plant-based protein brand Shnëdz is making its first move beyond its home market with an October 2026 launch in Malaysia. Developed by Singapore manufacturer SGProtein, the brand is introducing a range of halal-certified protein bites and placing product taste at the centre of its market entry strategy.

The launch is supported by the campaign “Tak cuba, tak tahu” (“If you don’t try, you won’t know”), which encourages consumers to experience the products firsthand through sampling activities. By focusing on trial, shnëdz aims to address a common barrier in the plant-based category, where perceptions around taste can discourage first-time purchases.

Distributed in Malaysia through Pok Brothers, the brand will also collaborate with local content creators to demonstrate how its protein bites can be incorporated into familiar dishes and everyday meals. In addition, shnëdz plans to engage vegetarian, vegan and broader food communities through social media and community-driven outreach initiatives.

The Malaysian launch includes four flavours: buffalo-style, citrus, chilli sin carne and protein nuggets. Alongside being high in protein and dietary fibre, the products are also allium-free and halal-certified, broadening their appeal to consumers with specific dietary and religious requirements.
