Lim Ben-Jie, airasia super app Head of e-Commerce said：“airasia food and airasia fresh look to expand aggressively and we are excited to enter the East Malaysia market with Kota Kinabalu as our first priority. A city with rich cultural heritage and growing industrial and commercial businesses, the food and fresh groceries delivery scene has much more potential to grow. We welcome all F&B and fresh produce operators across Kota Kinabalu to register their interests with us. We are also here to support local and traditional merchants in digitising their business and diversifying their revenue stream. We can’t wait to curate exciting deals and promotions on airasia food and airasia fresh for everyone in Kota Kinabalu!”

airasia food merchants can look forward to a new alternative for food delivery solutions. Aside from the lower commission rate, merchants can have full control over their menu, pricing and easy access to data aside from being able to communicate directly with their customers. They will also receive support from a dedicated account manager who will assist in bringing the F&B businesses online, provide system support on data analytics and monitoring. 

Keeping the local economy growing, airasia fresh works with homegrown and organic farmers, trusted frozen foods, seafood and meat distributors, and small businesses in supplying customers with the best products. Merchants on airasia fresh’s marketplace can enjoy competitive commission and reliable deliveries by Teleport to ensure freshness of the product. 

Both platform’s merchants can also leverage airasia’s extensive marketing effort and periodic campaigns to drive publicity and sales.
