Tasty Goodness in a Brand New Package from F&N Magnolia, the trusted go-to dairy brand across generations

Singapore, 25 April 2023 – For more than 85 years, F&N Magnolia has been a staple at breakfast tables in many Singaporean households. Families and milk lovers have also been delighted by the novel, trendy and limited-edition flavours, making mornings fun and exciting. This year, fans of F&N Magnolia will be treated to a brand-new refreshing look, with splashes of modern elements and eye-catching colours.  

It took hard work and continuous effort for F&N Magnolia to become one of Singapore’s well-loved brands today. The story of F&N Magnolia‘s humble beginnings began in 1937. By 1940, its first dairy farm was set up at Chestnut Drive, Bukit Timah. This laid the foundation for a modern milk manufacturing industry. The 180 acres of farmland was eventually populated by a herd of specially imported temperate cows.

By the late 50s, the iconic pyramid-shaped Tetra Pak lived up to its slogan “the peak in quality in every household”, winning top awards in the 1977 Singapore Packaging Award Competition by the Singapore Manufacturing Association. Throughout the 1990s, F&N Magnolia continued to improve its milk packaging that led to the introduction of the sealed screw cap technology. The innovation kept the cartons sealed for extra freshness. Today, F&N Magnolia remains as one of the most trusted homegrown brands for dairy products and promises to provide nutritious, delicious and wholesome goodness for everyone. 

Delicious and nourishing, the numerous benefits of milk are often forgotten or not fully appreciated. According to Healthhub.sg, milk is an excellent source of calcium and phosphorus which are essential for the maintenance of strong bones and teeth1. The presence of Vitamin D in dairy products helps with the absorption of calcium, which is important at every age2. Milk naturally contains water, high-quality protein and carbohydrate, making it uniquely suitable as a post-exercise recovery drink for fitness enthusiasts and those who embrace an active lifestyle3

A glass of tasty goodness a day goes a long way. One serving (250ml per serving) of F&N Magnolia 100% Fresh Milk provides 9.5 grams of protein – equivalent to about 1.5 eggs4, and 300mg of calcium, slightly more than one-third of the recommended dietary allowance for an adult between 19 to 50 years old, according to Healthhub.sg5. Enjoy milk in different ways by adding it to different dishes and beverages like Latte, Avocado Milkshake, Breakfast Pancake and Creamy Chicken Mushroom Pasta. For those who are lactose intolerant, indulge in F&N Magnolia Lactose Free Milk instead. For some quick and easy recipe ideas, please refer to the digital Recipe Book:  https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/read/67938473/fn-magnolia-recipe-book

Enjoy the benefits of milk with the newly revamped packaging in the morning and throughout the day. F&N Magnolia, which is Halal certified, is available at all leading supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores at the following Recommended Selling Prices:

Makro “Goes Green” with its Launch of EV Delivery Fleet

Tuesday 25 April 2023 – To cope with air pollution issues, Makro unveils its plan to use clean energy delivery fleet by deploying more than 300 EV trucks through a partnership with CP Foton. This initiative is expected to reduce over 2,500 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year by 2025 which demonstrates the company’s unwavering dedication to sustainability and emphasizes the importance of carbon footprint reduction in all dimensions as well as to achieve carbon neutral by 2030.

“Makro commits to be an environmentally responsible business and aims to reduce carbon emissions throughout its supply chain. Recently, Makro has partnered with CP Foton Sales Co., Ltd, a leading importer of global EV brand “FOTON”, to test electric-powered delivery trucks for “Makro Pro” customers in the Bangbon and Pak Chong – Khao Yai areas. The plan involves implementing more than 300 clean energy delivery trucks to Makro’s fleet over the next three years which is expected to provide over 150,000 trips per year. This will result in a significant reduction of carbon dioxide emissions up to 2,500 tons per year, equivalent to planting 114,000 trees,” said Mr. Tanit Chearavanont, Chief Executive Officer – Makro Thailand.

“Makro is aware of the air pollution issue and global warming, which are crises at present. Therefore, we are moving forward to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in all aspects of our business, from end- to-end. By changing our delivery fleet to use clean energy and focusing on a green business ecosystem throughout the supply chain, the project marks a significant step in the transformation of the wholesale business in Thailand towards sustainability,” Mr. Tanit added.
