Chinese New Year is undeniably one of the largest celebrations in multicultural Malaysia, with plenty of laughter and family chatter to be had all throughout its 15-day course. This year, things are a bit different as Malaysia stays home for the greater good of public health. Unexcluded, the everyday people behind TikTok have been doing what they can to bring prosperity and joy to all in the nation. The result is a chance for users to take on the #MoneyMoneyHome challenge and share their favorite munchies with #ChineseFood this Year of the Ox! 

The tale of the Ox as some may know, was the second animal to finish the Great Race after aiding the Rat, making it a symbol of great strength and auspiciousness. In this light, TikTok and Media Prima Omnia conjured up ‘Money the Magic Sifu’ through the spell #MoneyMoneyHome and received an interactive mini-game sticker for TikTok users to play and win big!

MALAYSIA — 5 FEBRUARY 2021 — foodpanda today announced the launch of its 150th pandamart in Asia. With its first store launched in Singapore in October 2019, pandamart, foodpanda’s grocery cloud store network, has since been rolled out to 40 cities, across eight markets in the region — Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, Pakistan and the Philippines. With this milestone, foodpanda now operates Asia’s largest network of cloud grocery stores, providing consumers with easy access to more than 4,000 grocery and household products, delivered within 25 minutes. 

Operating the cloud store concept with pandamart

pandamart cloud stores are purpose-built for deliveries only, with no walk-in retail storefront. Technology and data intelligence form the foundation of every pandamart — from determining its location, to the products carried in each store and how inventory is arranged within the space for maximum picking efficiency, so groceries and household essentials can be efficiently packed and delivered on-demand to consumers. Products available via pandamart include household essentials from global brands like P&G and Unilever, as well as fresh produce from local grocers. pandamart also carries plant-based and sustainably-grown produce and products on the platform.
