KUALA LUMPUR, June 11 (Bernama) — It is undeniable that Malaysia’s agribusiness industry has faced huge challenges following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected the business operations across the supply chain including the production, distribution, and retailing of agricultural products and the food industry. In response to this, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industries is partnering with Dropee to ensure that the distribution of food (such as rice, meat, fish, vegetables, and fruits) across Malaysia is in control and adequate throughout the COVID-19 period.
Dropee’s B2B eCommerce marketplace allows producers across the country to continue selling their produce to wholesalers, retailers, and consumers during the COVID-19 period. Dropee’s initiative with the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industries provides an alternative sales channel for these producers and suppliers to sell their products online in bulk. Through Dropee’s platform, sellers are also able to access logistics, financing, and insurance support from Dropee key partners.
