Planett is described as a ‘floral soda, an alternative aromatic carbonated refreshment inspired by nature crafted with varieties of flowers.’ The drink has a very lightly sweetened taste.
Planett is available in two flavours – Rubiaceae & Raspberry and Elderflower & Hibiscus.
The latest floral soda is mainly targeting first jobbers and females who are health consious.
TCP has unveiled its latest FarmZaa (ฟาร์มซ่า) Calamansi Soda at THAIFEX – Anuga Asia 2023. FarmZaa is a new brand that supports community products and Thai farmers to grow sustainably. The pilot product is based on a plant that grows in Thailand’s Chanthaburi province. It is an invigorating soda beverage with a scent of honey, 200% Vitamin C, and no added sugar.
According to TCP, the company sources its calamansi from farmers in Chanthaburi, which is known for its calamansi or “Mapeed”. TCP is selling FarmZaa exclusively online to test the market. There is a plan to scale up production if the product is well received.
FarmZaa is an interesting example of how large corporation can help local farmers through direct sourcing and adding value to the ingredients. TCP can replicate the same concept with other Thai ingredients to create a range of beverages made from local produce.
From there, TCP could even explore the concept of upcycling by reusing food byproducts and turning them into new edible products. Such as move can further improve TCP’s image as an ethical and sustainable company.
9 May 2023 – Leading industry powerhouses, Yee Lee Group (Yee Lee) and TCP Group today announced that the two companies had formed a strategic alliance that is set to ‘Energising a Better World For All’ Malaysians with innovative and quality energy drinks, Carbonated soft drinks, Asian drinks, coffee and other functional drinks.
Yee Lee is a fully integrated manufacturer and distributor of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG). While, TCP Group is a multinational company and the co-owner of the world’s most iconic energy drink brand, “Red Bull”, with the Yoovidhya family. Also known as the “House of Great Brands,” the company has a diverse product portfolio and is active in international markets.
The alliance, in which TCP became a 50% shareholder of Yee Lee Marketing, will see both companies leveraging on their combined strength and expertise to enhance the market share of Red Bull products, increase cross-selling opportunities, strengthen efficiencies and service experience for sub-distributors and retailers as well as provide Malaysian consumers with innovative and exciting products.
As a start, Yee Lee and TCP Group will establish a dedicated representative office and in-country team in Malaysia that will play a critical role in solidifying Red Bull’s position as the leading No. 1 energy drink in Malaysia, while supporting the launch of new Red Bull variants in the foreseeable future. Red Bull has a market share of 51.3% Moving Annual Target (MAT) within the Energy Drinks category in Malaysia as of the period ending March 2023, based on NielsenIQ (NIQ) Retail Index report.
The strategic alliance aims to capture approximately 60% of Malaysia’s energy drink industry within the next five years. According to current market data and category forecast, the revenue in energy drinks segment in Malaysia is expected to reach RM 500 million by 2027. The market is expected to grow annually by approximately 7% (CAGR 2023-2027).
Lim Ee Young, Group Managing Director of Yee Lee, said, “Yee Lee has been distributing Red Bull products in Malaysia since 2015.”
“This strategic alliance is a natural evolution of our relationship, where we now come together as one team to drive the growth of the Red Bull brand further in Malaysia and set new benchmarks for the FMCG industry locally as well as across the region,” Lim said.
According to Lim, opening a Red Bull office in Malaysia will strengthen our rapport and engagement with our business partners, sub-distributors and retailers. “We want our market to understand that Red Bull is here to stay and grow in tandem with the positive outlook of the energy-drink space,” he added.
Saravoot Yoovidhya, Chief Executive Officer of TCP Group, said, “TCP Group’s strategic alliance with Yee Lee brings to the table a new level of operational and management best practices, world-class marketing and distribution capabilities as well as an unparalleled customer relations management model to our business partners. In addition, it allows us to understand the needs, habits and preferences of local consumers, bringing the very best of Red Bull to Malaysians.”
“Brought together by a genuine passion and respect for the Red Bull brand, both TCP Group and Yee Lee are now poised to revolutionise the beverage industry with new products and new approaches while playing a role to further strengthen bilateral ties between Malaysia and Thailand,” he added.
Red Bull products obtained the ‘Halal’ certificate and entered the Malaysian market in 1993 with Red Bull Gold and Red Bull Bottle. This was followed by Red Bull Less Sugar and the recent Red Bull Plus. Red Bull Plus is an energy drink for those constantly on the go for work and school, fitness and sports enthusiasts, and those who Work from Home.
In 2023, Red Bull will also charge ahead with its ‘Trust Your Energy’ 2023 global campaign. The campaign seeks to empower people to power through life with the energy they need in an uncertain world while coping with rising inflation. In addition, the campaign aims to energise and inspire everyone to be and do what they want.
Tyson’s First Pride has launched Sour Cream & Onion Chicken Nuggets and Salted Egg Nugget Tempura Chicken Nuggets as the new addition to the First Pride range in Malaysia.
We have previously reported on the launch of the salted egg product. We feel the new products are inspired by the savoury dips that consumers use or dips that go well with the nuggets whether they are salted egg or sour cream and onion.

Wednesday 24 May 2023 – Chula Faculty of Medicine, in collaboration with the Department of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine, released research results on “Wang Nam Yen” herbal tea to stimulate lactation in mothers after childbirth, especially those who have had a cesarean delivery. The herbal tea yielded as good results as modern medicine and is slated for commercial production and export.
Nowadays, modern mothers are more willing to breastfeed because breast milk is rich in nutrients important for their babies’ growth and development, yet, they are plagued with the problem of having too little or no breast milk.
“Obstetricians often give Domperidone, which is usually used as an antiemetic drug, to induce breast milk, but these uses are banned in some countries, such as the United States because of the side effects of causing abnormal electrocardiogram,” said Associate Professor Krit Pongpirul, M.D., PhD., Department of Preventive and Social Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University.
“Wang Nam Yen” herbal tea comes from the research of Mr. Pinit Chinsoi, a pharmacist who had collected herbal formulas in traditional Thai medicine and compared the safety to that of modern medicine. Five herbs were selected: bael, sappanwood (fang), ginger, licorice, and jewel vine to cure fatigue, heavy blood loss, muscle pain, low breast milk, and dizziness which are some of the postpartum symptoms. The formula was named “Wang Nam Yen” in honor of Wang Nam Yen Hospital, Sa Kaeo Province, at which Mr. Pinit was stationed as a pharmacist at that time.
The research team developed a study to test and compare the effectiveness of postpartum breast milk stimulation between “Wang Nam Yen” Thai herbal tea and modern medicine. The study participants were 120 mothers who had a cesarean birth and received nursing care at Sansitphrasong Hospital, Ubon Ratchathani Province, from February-September 2017 under the clinical supervision of Doctor Koollachart Saejueng, M.D., a resident obstetrician at the hospital then.
The results suggest that the mothers who received herbal tea produced more milk than other groups 24 hours after birth, and they produced a similar amount of milk to the group who received modern medicine 48, and 72 hours after birth and performed better than the group that received placebos.
