GUARDIAN MALAYSIA LOWERS AND LOCKS PRICES OF 1,500 ESSENTIALS

Guardian Malaysia today launched a nation-wide   initiative to lower and lock the prices of 1,500 items of health, beauty and personal care essentials to cushion the impact of financial challenges brought about by the pandemic. 

The prices of these items have been lowered and will remain unchanged for the rest of the year so that customers need not have to visit multiple places for great deals, said Soren Lauridsen, CEO of Guardian South East Asia (Guardian SEA), as well as Guardian Health And Beauty Sdn Bhd (Guardian Malaysia).

He said: “We have listened closely to our customers and what they look for, especially following the onset of the pandemic and  decided to support them by locking the low prices of 1,500 essentials to protect from price fluctuations.

The “Low Prices Locked To Stay Low” initiative is a regional effort   by  Guardian SEA and underscores the Group’s commitment to ensure prices of daily essentials such as bath, hair care, personal hygiene, vitamins and supplements remain affordable during this challenging time when customers are increasingly looking to stretch their dollar. 

 “Our customers throughout the country, including those who prefer to buy   online, can enjoy these affordable prices and great value, every day for the rest of the year. We believe our customers will appreciate this form of support in this highly uncertain environment,” he added.

Lauridsen said the selection of products is based on Guardian’s research on customer buying behaviour and preferences.  It reflects what they buy most often, such  as Dove  and Pantene  shampoo,  Darlie toothpaste and Panadal Actifast.

“Our customers also indicated that affordability is a priority, which is the focus of our initiative,” he added.

Reflecting the findings of the research, and given the current deep concerns over healthcare, a total of 35% of the items are health essentials, carefully selected to make them even more affordable.

In the current climate, Guardian observed a growth in demand for Guardian’s own brand products because of its attractive price range and trusted quality.  As such prices of all Guardian Brand products have also been lowered and locked in this initiative.   

Lauridsen said: “Our investment in this initiative is in line with   Guardian’s commitment in putting our customers at the heart of everything that we do, listening to their needs as  the trusted leading pharmacy, health and beauty destination in  Malaysia.

 

“In addition, we remain committed to  improving the customer experience despite the challenging economic climate - we have  invested in store refits and new openings in the past year with a focus on giving customers greater accessibility to quality health and beauty products and services all at a one-stop destination.”    

 

“Our initiative goes beyond just great prices.  We   have worked hard and have become the trusted experts in community health, supported by  a large team of pharmacists.  Guardian remains a dedicated long-term partner to improving the health and well-being of  all our customers,” Lauridsen added.

REVAMPED SURIA KLCC SIGNATURES FOOD COURT FULLY REOPENS WITH ATTRACTIVE PROMOTIONS

 When is a food court more than just a mere food court? The answer: When it is designed and constructed according to the best practices that ensures hygiene and unbeatable customer experience, but also incorporate the new norms brought about by Covid-19. This is the philosophy of Suria KLCC’s Signatures Food Court, which is completely new, enlarged, and made safer, all at the same time.  The “original” food court dates to 1998, when the mall opened its doors for business. The last major renovation was in 2005 with extra seating added in 2015 bringing the capacity to 1200. The latest redevelopment, which incorporates the space formerly occupied by Parkson, the total number of seats were increased to over 1,500 but still leaves customers with more elbow room as it considers the need for adequate physical distancing.  More space for distancing is just part of the picture, as the overall dining experience has been upped several notches. For example, from 22 food court outlets...
