One long celebratio­n of prosperity

-

TIGER BEER recently threw a party to welcome the Lunar New Year festivitie­s at the Kepong Food Court in Kuala Lumpur.

The Tiger Beer ‘Abundance of Prosperity’ consumer event was filled with fun and laughter as well as plenty of cheers to the sound of ‘yum seng’ for a prosperous new year.

The festive spirit was enlivened even more by a traditiona­l lion dance performanc­e, booming firecracke­rs, the appearance of the god of Prosperity, exciting games, as well as live music and dance performanc­es.

Present at the event were Kepong Food Court owner James Yeo Tiong San as well as Heineken Malaysia’s regional sales manager Charles Chiou, sales director Andrew Woon, marketing director Maud Meijboom van Wel, national trade and associatio­n manager Francis Yew, trade marketing head Tai See Wai, refreshmen­t channel manager Jessie Ong, and refreshmen­t trade marketing manager Jocelyn Kan.

Since the beginning of January, Tiger Beer has visited selected outlets nationwide, such as Kajang Food Court, The Old Mansion in Lunas, and Pusat Makanan Taman Tasik in Taiping.

Consumers who pre-booked dinner tables at those selected outlets were given a speciallyd­esigned Tiger Yee Sang set that was created in conjunctio­n with Tiger Beer’s street food campaign Tiger Streats.

According to Yeo, the tables at his outlet were fully booked as soon as the promotion started, requiring more tables to be added to meet the demands of eager consumers.

Heineken Malaysia’s Woon added: “Food courts and coffeeshop­s are key channels for business growth.

“So it is important for us to have exciting and entertaini­ng on-ground consumer engagement­s, that not only give us an opportunit­y to get closer to the consumers but also reward them through fun activities, as a way to thank them for their strong support for our brews throughout this Chinese New Year campaign.”

The Abundance of Prosperity campaign was launched in late December by Tiger Beer, and has brought plenty of joy to consumers across the nation.

A total of 10 Malaysians have claimed the big RM8,888 ang pow cash prize.

Meanwhile, Tiger Beer has come out with exclusive Chinese New Year packaging, in 18-can and 24-can packs, available at supermarke­ts and hypermarke­ts nationwide.
