Shopee Express Couriers Drive Community Inclusion and Business Success

Backbone of Community Enablers: Almost 90% of Couriers Driving Change Beyond Deliveries

KUALA LUMPUR, 27 APRIL 2023 – A new study(1) by Shopee Express has found that 1,317 Malaysian couriers are committed to building robust relationships with local communities. 87% of couriers surveyed provide trustworthy nationwide delivery services, engage with people from diverse cultures, and develop a deeper understanding of the areas they operate in. The remaining believe that their work enables local businesses to expand their market reach, which contributes to their growth and creates new job opportunities.

The success of businesses and communities relies heavily on these couriers who are truly unsung heroes. Especially for local businesses, they are always adapting to meet the changing demands of their customers, while many households, especially those of the elderly and disadvantaged, have greatly benefited from the services of couriers. This is made possible by the fact that 80% of couriers deliver at least 80 parcels on a daily basis, while the rest handle a smaller number of parcels due to other commitments.

Given their intention to deliver parcels safely to the customers they value, 80% of couriers prioritise customer needs by considering factors such as urgency, location, and timing, while the other 20% take into account their own capabilities, such as parcel size, weight, and order received, when evaluating the feasibility of delivering parcels. 

When asked ”What do you enjoy most about working as a Shopee Express courier?” – 56% of couriers enjoy the job’s flexibility and breaks, 25% value the opportunity to take ownership of their successes and hard work, and 19% appreciate the teamwork and training courses that come with being part of the community. Couriers also have been able to support their households by scheduling work trips at their convenience, which allows them to maintain their standard of living while continuing to develop their skills.

With countless deliveries to complete everyday, these couriers believe that having certain qualities is helpful in making them more efficient and productive. 80% of couriers surveyed identified honesty and reliability as crucial – they are responsible for delivering parcels safely, on time, and securely to customers. 20% think that possessing a positive mindset and ample knowledge is essential, which means being able to adapt to changes and staying calm in difficult situations.

All couriers know that customers want their parcels to arrive safely. 8 out of 10 couriers recalled pushing through circumstances to deliver in bad weather or remote areas, whereas the remaining couriers remembered playing a role in making someone feel valued by delivering for special occasions. These experiences motivate couriers to keep doing their job as it reminds them of the positive impact they have on people’s lives.

Cheah Lee Sun, Head of Shopee Express, said, “Our couriers clearly play a crucial role in the communities they serve. We appreciate their tireless efforts to complete deliveries on time and build stronger connections with customers. As the backbone of our business, we are here listening to their needs and accommodating them as much as we can. This is just one of the ways we provide a better peace of mind not just to our couriers, but also to our customers who rely on us to deliver their parcels with utmost care and efficiency.”

When asked how being a Shopee Express courier impacted their lives, 34% of couriers had improved their time management skills by prioritising their tasks effectively. For 27% of them, their work allowed them to provide meaningful support to their families. 23% learned about the importance of being accountable in delivering parcels, and 16% felt a sense of purpose in life and saw opportunities for career advancement.

“We are happy to see that many of them have a better understanding of how to communicate with customers, build rapport, and become more skilled over time in managing a consistent stream of work and balancing personal responsibilities,” Cheah concluded.

  1. Shopee Express’ 2023 Expressing Local Love study was conducted between 9 March 2023 and 31 March 2023. 87% of couriers surveyed provide trustworthy nationwide delivery services, engage with people from diverse cultures, and develop a deeper understanding of the areas they operate in.

FedEx Lights Up Malaysia's Iconic Kuala Lumpur Tower to Celebrate Milestone Anniversary

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 27, 2023 – FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) and one of the world’s largest express transportation companies, celebrated its anniversary by lighting up the Kuala Lumpur Tower, one of the tallest structures in Southeast Asia, in shades of the official FedEx colors purple and orange on April 17.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of FedEx worldwide and the 30th anniversary of FedEx in Malaysia. To celebrate this significant milestone, the company had the Kuala Lumpur Tower lit up to express its commitment to its customers and its gratitude for being welcomed as a member of the community for decades.

FedEx began its operations on April 17, 1973, in Memphis, Tennessee, with 389 team members and 14 aircrafts. On that first night, the company delivered 186 packages to 25 cities across the United States. Now, the company employs nearly 530,000 employees worldwide and ships 16.5 million packages daily across the globe.

Over time, FedEx expanded its services to include international destinations, launching its first international services in Asia and Europe in 1984. In 1993, the company introduced direct services to customers in Malaysia, further expanding its global reach and capabilities. FedEx in Malaysia launched a transpacific next day service for Penang in 1997 and opened a facility in Batu Kawan to strengthen the network and meet local customer demand in 2020.

At this important milestone, FedEx is committed to stay ahead of the supply chain curve by focusing on best-in-class innovations that will pave the way for the future.

FedEx team members across Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa (AMEA) including Malaysia came together with those across the globe to celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary through 50 Days of Caring. Team members supported the communities they serve every day by volunteering their time and donating items to agencies in need. Whether it was through refurbishing schools and hospitals or cleaning up parks and beaches, giving back is part of the company’s culture. FedEx also recently announced it exceeded its FedEx Cares 50 by 50 goal of helping 50 million people by its 50th birthday.

Ms. Natiya Suchinda, Director of the Office of Agricultural and Industrial Trade Promotion, DITP, stated that the COVID-19 pandemic had impacted the THAIFEX – Anuga Asia events from 2019-2022. However, with the situation returning to normal this year, the three organisers are preparing for a fully organised event, bigger than before the outbreak. This upcoming trade show will be the largest and most comprehensive in Asia for the food and beverage industry, providing entrepreneurs with a global platform to negotiate deals, be inspired, discover innovations and technologies, while creating marketing opportunities. The event aims to further emphasise Thailand’s potential as a leader in producing and exporting world-class quality food, in line with the Ministry of Commerce’s policy to promote Thai cuisine.

“This year, more than 3,000 companies from 43 countries, including 1,200 Thai businesses, will showcase their products and services across 5,500 booths.

We’re amplifying our use of digital screens and mobile apps, while reducing printed materials such as show guides and brochures. Other significant strides in our sustainability efforts at THAIFEX – Anuga Asia include eliminating carpets along the aisles, and by rolling out e-badges, we’ve successfully saved over 70,000 lanyards from being issued. Furthermore, we’re committed to recycling by repurposing our banners into reusable bags that will be donated to schools and charity organisations. We understand the importance of responsible resource management and are consistently setting clearer goals to execute a resource-friendly trade show. Our ultimate goal is to lead the way and inspire others to join us on this journey towards a greener future.”

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.
