Abbott, a global healthcare company and Shopee, a leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, are coming together to help improve nutrition at every stage of life for people in Malaysia. Nutrition for the Whole Family, a regional initiative across six countries including Malaysia, will be held on Shopee Super Brand Day in May. 

The Nutrition For The Whole Family campaign aims to nurture families to live fuller lives through good nutrition, and through this program, families will receive nutrition tips, nutrition shopping guide and get to select a range of Abbott’s science-based nutrition products for children and adults.

Today, consumers are prioritizing their health by being more mindful of their diets. Eating is no longer just about taste and sustenance – nutrition has become a key element in living better and healthier. Malaysians are adopting a healthier diet and complementing it with nutritional supplements.

More people are shopping for health-related products such as nutritional supplements online, with the Health category on Shopee growing year-on-year. To meet the growing demand online, Abbott and Shopee want to support families in choosing the right nutrition products for their needs. Abbott brands participating in the campaign include Ensure, Glucerna, PediaSure, Similac Gain Plus/Kid Gold, Similac Intellipro & Isomil Plus. Through Shopee's suite of engagement tools, consumers can look forward to fun ways to improve their nutrition.

Dr. Jose Dimaano, Medical Affairs Director Asia-Pacific at Abbott, says, “Proper nutrition is the foundation for living your best life. That’s why Abbott strives to strengthen communities around the region through the power of science-based nutrition as we believe that with good nutrition, every stage of life can be a healthy one. By partnering Shopee, we can empower more families to choose nutritious food, by providing valuable information and tips as well as a range of specialized nutrition products to eat healthy.

Ian Ho, Regional Managing Director at Shopee, says, "It is crucial for consumers to get access to reliable information when shopping for health-related products. As such, we’re happy to work with Abbott, a globally trusted brand, to launch this campaign that educates consumers on nutrition in a fun and interactive way. We invite consumers to join us and learn about science-based nutrition tips, as well as shop for Abbott’s high-quality nutritional products with exclusive deals and vouchers through this Super Brand Day, in conjunction with our ongoing 6.6 Awesome Sale campaign.”

Starting 30 May, shoppers can access special content features, including:

-         Nutrition Tips: A healthy immune system is supported through good nutrition. Consumers can receive nutrition tips on the Abbott Mommy Scoop Facebook page to discover the different nutrients and how they help fight against illnesses and infections.

-         Shopping Guide: Good nutrition starts with making smart choices in the store. Abbott product listings on the Shopee platform will feature the nutrition benefits of the products to help consumers select the right specialized nutrition supplement according to their needs.

Bottoms Lab launches official Shopee store

  


Fans of Bottoms Lab, an independent brand founded in Australia, can now rejoice as it has now expanded its e-commerce presence by opening an official store on Shopee.

 


Bottoms Lab is created with one purpose in mind - to combine comfort with quality and style, leaving behind the dilemma to choose between looking good and being comfortable. Bottoms Lab first launched its online store in Malaysia back in November 2019, and since then have garnered a strong 20,000 and counting customer base.

 

“With the economic decline caused by the pandemic, the Malaysian consumer has learned to turn towards more economical and unique solutions to their wants and needs,” says Bottoms Lab co-founder, Melvin Chee.

 

“This new-normal that occurred by the community's reaction to the pandemic has created an upward trend in the world of e-commerce that has allowed a perfect opportunity for Bottoms Lab to continue growing its footprint among the Malaysian consumers,” added Chee.

 

Bottoms Lab’s official store on Shopee will be the first of any external sales channels that the brand is selling on apart from its official website.

 

“When we research new sales channels, the user base and its nationwide presence are some important factors that we evaluate,” he said.

 

He elaborated that e-commerce platforms like Shopee have successfully helped SME brands to tap into a larger customer base in Malaysia. “For example, we work closely with the Shopee team to market our Momentum Long Pants and Momentum Shorts to more potential customers through Shopee monthly campaigns.”

 

To commemorate its official launch on Shopee, Bottoms Lab is treating its customers with great deals in the upcoming 6.6 Awesome Sale period. Customers can get up to 30% off on selected products under Brand Spotlight on 26 May 2021, and vouchers that are worth an extra 40% off with a minimum spend of RM100 from 7 June to 13 June under Style by Shopee.

 

Shopee’s 6.6 Awesome Sale offers users free shipping with a minimum spend of RM6, 66% off deals and vouchers daily and more during the campaign which starts on 25 May.

 

“We are firm believers that looking good and feeling comfortable shouldn’t be too costly, so we are working closely with Shopee to promote our products and offer great deals to our loyal customers,” said Chee.

 

The co-founder also mentioned that they will be launching more new products in the coming weeks for a wider product offering to their customers.
