Joyday, the ice cream brand from the Chinese dairy major Yili, has been spotted in Thailand. Yili created the Joyday ice cream brand to target the Southeast Asia market.

Central Food Retail Group announced in a press release on 7 February 2020 that its TopsDaily and FamilyMart will introduce coin washing machines to cater to modern consumers who are in a rush and seek convenience. This service will allow customers to shop and do laundry at their convenience 24 hours a day. The laundry chains that have joined program are Clean Pro Express, The M Soul Laundromate and Otteri Wash & Dry.
Central Food said the new concept store is an embodiment of the “third place” concept “where our customers can enjoy many services in one place,” said Stephane Coum, Chief Executive Officer of Central Food Retail Group.
The new will also target consumers who have limited space at home usually living in condominium or apartment or for those who do not want to spend on big home appliances like washing machine.
Currently, the service is offered at four FamilyMart stores in Bangkok and Pattaya namely Pracharat Bamphen 11, Ramintra Soi 34, Pattaya Saranchon Soi 2 and Na Jomthien Soi 2. Wash and dry service starts from THB 40.
In the future, Tops Daily and FamilyMart will expand the 24/7 one-stop laundry service to additional 20 stores in Bangkok, Pattaya, Samui and Khon Kaen to cater to growing demands and customer base.
The concept of shopping and laundry is not a new concept for FamilyMart. In fact, FamilyMart opened its first laundry store in Taiwan in January 2019.
Previously, convenient store operators in Thailand have trialed laundry drop off and pick up at selected stores. The new concept of convenience store cum laundry brings the experience to a whole new level where consumers are encouraged to spend on products and service while waiting for their laundry to finish.
The third place concept is popular nowadays in retail and foodservice. We have seen FamilyMart opening a 4,300-square-foot store, in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig in 2019. The outlet, the world’s largest FamilyMart store, features a co-working space.
The Goodday Balance Pasteurised Low Fat Milk in two variants, Low Fat and Low Fat Chocolate, will offer Malaysians additional benefits of Vitamin D along with a decadent and pleasant taste.
KUALA LUMPUR, 7 February 2020 â Goodday Milk, Malaysiaâs favourite milk brand, has recently announced the launch of another Pasteurised Milk range â Goodday Balance Pasteurised Low Fat Milk. Fortified with the additional benefits of Vitamin D that aids calcium absorption, Goodday Milkâs latest product is available in two variants, namely Goodday Balance Pasteurised Low Fat Milk and Goodday Balance Pasteurised Low Fat Chocolate Milk. Delightfully creamy, the Goodday Balance range is both decadent and aromatic, making it a delicious and wholesome beverage choice anytime during the day.
Unlike other commercially available pasteurised milk that are often fortified with calcium, the Goodday Balance Pasteurised Low Fat Milk pays special attention to their Vitamin D content*. While it is one thing to consume calcium, emphasis also needs to be given to calcium absorption. According to an article published on Harvard Health Publishing, Vitamin D’s best-known role is to keep bones healthy by increasing the intestinal absorption of calcium. Without enough Vitamin D, the body can only absorb 10% to 15% of dietary calcium, but 30% to 40% absorption is the rule when vitamin reserves are normal. A diet therefore needs to contain optimal levels of vitamin D and calcium for adequate bone health.
The Goodday Balance range is also loaded with other essential nutrients including protein, Vitamin B1, B2, B3, B6 and B12, making it a great beverage choice for consumers, from toddlers to young adults.
âWith Goodday Milk, our focus has always been to offer consumers with beverages that are both healthy and nourishing. Our latest product, Goodday Balance range, is not only packed with a delicious and aromatic taste compared to regular milk but also fortified with Vitamin D, a nutrient composition not commonly seen with other pasteurised milk products. Goodday Milk has been providing Malaysians with top quality milk for over 50 years now and will continue to do so with our ever-expanding product range.â said Santharuban T. Sundaram, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Alternate Business at Etika Sdn. Bhd.
The pleasant aroma and taste of Goodday Balance products are sure to keep consumers coming back for more. The all new Goodday Balance Pasteurised Low Fat Milk range is now available in packet size of 1L at hypermarkets and supermarkets nationwide.
