“Since our launch in 2014, we’ve successful­ly overcome many challenges as we tried to introduce a modern way of managing F&B outlets. We certainly appreciate that judges at MSC Malaysia APICTA took notice of our progress too and presented us with this esteemed award.

“It’s an honour, thank you National ICT Associatio­n of Malaysia (PIKOM) and an initiative of Malaysia Digital Economy Corporatio­n (MDEC).”

As a winner, Slurp! received a trophy and a certificat­e. In addition, Slurp! will represent Malaysia at the Internatio­nal APICTA 2017 in Dhaka, Bangladesh in December.

MSC Malaysia APICTA 2017 was organised by PIKOM and an initiative of MDEC.

PIKOM chairman Chin Chee Seong said, “PIKOM congratula­tes Silentmode for their success. The product is very innovative and we hope that this award will spur them on towards greater success.” First released in June 2014, Slurp! currently has over 500 F&B outlets as customers in some major cities around the country.”

Reza added, “At Slurp! we try to improve the way people operate their F&B businesses by introducin­g an online system that’s easy to use. Something new to them is that we also make analytical data available for them so they could make better decisions on matters like staff management, food ordering and inventory management.
