Baju Kurung Searched More than 3.3 Million Times during Ramadan 2021

Baju Kurung searched close to 3.3 million times during Ramadan 2021

KUALA LUMPUR, 1 April 2022 – With the lockdowns changing the way we shop in recent years, Shopee’s Ramadan month data between 2019 and 2021 shows that Malaysians have become more intuitive when it comes to online shopping.

With the advancement of technology and how Ramadan shopping is turning to be more digital, Shopee has experienced a spike in searches for items across all segments on the platform throughout the Ramadan period in the last three years.

The keyword Baju Kurung was searched close to 3.3 million times throughout the Ramadan season in 2021. This was a 433 percent increase from the same period in 2020. In 2020 Ramadan month, the keyword increased in popularity by 265 percent compared to the same period the previous year.

In the health and beauty segment, the keyword foundation was searched more than 90,000 times on Shopee, a significant increase compared to 2019 where it was searched about 28,000 times. In 2021, the keyword search increased to more than 197,000 times. This shows that many who observe Ramadan continue to purchase products that help them look their best, come family photo sessions during Raya.

Meanwhile, the search for Kuih Raya increased to 253,603 times during Ramadan last year from 58,331 times in 2020 as Kuih Raya is one of the must-haves in the household of Malaysians who celebrate the occasion and hand out as gifts to their family and friends.

Consumers were also looking for automotive items such as helmets, engine oil, wipers, oil filter and car wax online. For instance, the keyword wiper was searched 8,365 times in Ramadan 2020 as hardware and spare part shops were allowed to only operate for limited hours during the Movement Control Order (MCO) period. Last Ramadan, it was searched more than 27,000 times.

Kenneth Soh, Head of Marketing Campaigns at Shopee Malaysia said that the lockdowns had trained Malaysians to be accustomed to e-commerce and that Shopee has now become the go-to platform to get their Ramadan essentials which were previously purchased offline.

“Take for instance there was a surge in sales for ketupat palas, BB Cream and concealers during Ramadan 2021. These are popular items which users used to purchase them offline. However, last year, these became the most sold items online within their product categories.”

On the top-3 selling products from every category for the past three years, Shopee has released the following:

Heineken® Star Quality

This year, Star Academy kicks off with its flagship programme – Heineken® Star Quality.
Bartenders are invited to undergo training on the art of bartending, to understand the history and origin of Heineken® as well as the ingredients that go into the brew. Ultimately, these bartenders will grasp the Heineken® Star Serve, the five-step pouring ritual comprising rinse, pour, skim, check and serve to create the perfect pint of Heineken®.

I will never forget the experience of representing Malaysia at the Heineken® Global Bartender Finals in Amsterdam. It was a thrilling adventure to master and showcase my bartending skills alongside the best of the best. With this year’s hands-on training, I have no doubt the upcoming Heineken® Star Quality will be even more exciting!”

The Heineken® Star Quality training will be held in seven different regions in Malaysia including Penang, Perak, Johor, Sabah Sarawak and two locations in the Klang Valley. After the training sessions, participants will undergo both a theory and physical test, with their product knowledge and bartending skills being put to the test and graded.

The Heineken Star Bartender 2022 Malaysia champion will be crowned at the finale on 3 June 2022. The champion will then walk away with a three-days-two-nights, all expenses paid Langkawi getaway for both the bartender and the bar owner with their plus-ones.

Seven Back-to-School Bento Box Tips From Alce Nero

Organic Alphabet Pasta

Shah Alam, March 31, 2022 – The new school term is here, causing anxiety among those of us with kids going to nursery, kindergarten or Year One. Can they cope with this new phase in their lives, will they make friends, can they follow SOPs and for many Asian parents, the important question of what will they eat at nursery, kindy and school?

Back-to-school Bento lunch boxes are an essential tool for busy parents who want to ensure that their little ones are getting healthy, well-balanced and preferably organic meals from an early age.

Alce Nero, a leader in organic food including, pasta, pasta sauces, honey, jams, olive oil and apple cider vinegar among others is here to help parents with nine simple tips to make back-to-school Bento boxes a breeze. 

The case for switching over to a more organic diet especially for kids is strong as these foods are absent of chemicals from pesticides. Research suggests that even low levels of pesticide exposure in an extended period can affect young children’s neurological and behavioral development, with evidence showing links between pesticide exposure to neonatal reflexes, psychomotor and mental development, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder[1].

Alce Nero’s Organic Kid’s Pasta are incredibly delicious. They comes in a mix of naturally coloured and flavoured pasta using tomato and spinach that sneaks in the goodness of vegetables and fibre, a plus for parents of fussy eaters. It is bronze drawn for a rougher and more porous pasta, ideal for sauce absorption. Made using organically grown durum wheat, it is a source of fibre that leaves you feeling full for longer, and helps keep intestines functioning optimally.

Organic Macaroni

Parents love the organic goodness, convenience and taste of Alce Nero Organic Kid’s Pastas. Not surprisingly Alce Nero Kid Pasta Sports Shape received a 5 Star Rating, the highest rating possible, on Motherhood Malaysia[2].

Alce Nero Organic Pastas contain no preservatives or artificial substances such as sugars. These pastas are made in Italy to be low in fat and sodium, high in protein and are a good source of dietary fibre.

Organic Spaghetti Tricolore

Now on to the tips!

  1. Start with A Base That Kids Love – Pasta

The majority of kids love pasta. Pastas can be prepared in numerous ways to suit your child’s preference. Savoury, sweet, spicy and even air-fried as a healthy Bento box snack! 

  1. Prep Ahead, Leftovers Included

Cook up a larger than required dinner, so that there will be enough to pack for the next day’s lunch. Alce Nero Organic Pasta is an excellent choice as it refrigerates well and reheats. Fill the Bento boxes before serving dinner, then  refrigerate. In the morning add sauce to pasta and microwave, then add fresh fruit; carrot, cucumber or celery sticks and some cherry tomatoes, a small pack of raisins or other sweet treat in their individual compartments or use cupcake cases or lettuce leaves as separators. Quick, healthy, delicious, organic and almost too pretty to eat! 

  1. Cuteness Encourages Appetite

Picky eaters can be encouraged to eat just a little bit more with cute food. Alce Nero Organic Kids’ Pasta comes in the shape of alphabets, vehicles and sports equipment that are visually arresting. The pastas  includes dehydrated organic spinach for green shapes, and dehydrated organic tomato for orangey red shapes. Depending on your child’s interest they will love playing with and eating their favourite pasta shapes in their Bento box. With some practice you will have the skills to create Insta-worthy Bento boxes.  Personalise their Bento box lunch by spelling their name using alphabet pasta. The young, and the young at heart will both love this little touch.

  1. Make It Saucy

Kids love pasta with tomato sauce in their Bento boxes. Prepare Alce Nero Organic Kids’ Pasta according to the instruction, and at the same time warm up Alce Nero Pasta Tomato Sauce in a pan. Depending on your child’s tolerance for organic vegetables and proteins, add what they like, then combine the pasta with the pasta sauce. Grate some cheese over this tasty delight, and its ready. Another Bento lunch box done and dusted.

  1. Get Creative

Have you tried making dessert pasta salad? Cook up a serving of Alce Nero Organic Fun Shapes pasta, toss with Alce Nero organic honey, flaked almonds or other nuts, raisins or dried cranberries, sweetcorn kernels and some diced cucumber or celery. Top with cherry tomatoes or strawberries. Add a creatively sliced boiled egg on the side. A balanced, colourful, cute and tasty Bento box for kids who cannot handle spicy food. 

  1. Portion Control and A Nutritionally Balanced Bento Box

Kids tend to eat smaller meals than adults, but their meals need to be well balanced. The Malaysian Healthy Plate by the Ministry of Health recommends that a meal comprise of half vegetables and fruits, a quarter of protein and a quarter of carbohydrates. An easy way to portion kids’ meals is to get a well-proportioned kids’ Bento box, and not overfill the compartments.

  1. Scale Up For The Entire Family

With the cost of eating out increasing and most of us back at work as the country enters the COVID-19 endemicity stage, organic Bento boxes for the entire family are a great idea. It helps the family eat healthier, more balanced organic meals, saves on costs and you do not need to worry about the provenance of your meal.

The brand’s farm-to-table concept is made possible by working with its network of organic farmers, making the produce much healthier. The brand’s extensive line of authentic Italian organic produce is 100% organic certified by European Union law and by JAS organic agriculture in Japan.

Malaysian parents can use Alce Nero products with confidence as it is certified Halal by official certification bodies recognized by JAKIM.
